Day 5: A week ago, I began Spanish 3.
Class starts at 8 AM and runs for 4.5 hours. I'd say 4.5 hours straight but we get a ten minute break at the two hour mark. Each day starts with a quiz on the material from the previous day. We took our fifth quiz today. Midterms are Wednesday.
Things. Move. VERY. Quickly.
Missing an hour of a summer session class is the equivalent to missing a day's worth of class in a normal semester. And yet, there are kids in my class who have shown up late, left early, and one who, just plain doesn't do homework even though it's an easy 15% of our grade. It doesn't have to be correct, it just has to be done. You could write just about anything and get 100% credit. Still... *shrug*
Class began a week ago and Midterms are this Wednesday. Finals are next week. I'm enduring all of this with the unblinking courage of a robot gorilla.
Class began a week ago and we're already more than 1/3 of the way through the course material.
Class began a week ago and my teacher still calls my "Strew". I know because that's how she spells it as well.
I'd correct her but it sounds adorable.
Class began a week ago and I'm a lot more confident since then. I can't wait for midterms. I may just end up with an "A" in this course. Until the final bell, however, I have a lot more work to do.
The holiday makes this into a 3-day school week. 'Tough' just got 'tougher'.
*opens lunchables* Bring it, Spanish.
Estoy listo.
