One Quarterly Exam Down, One More To Go

Wow, tomorrow's already Thursday, the last day of school for the week! Very exciting... :P Today I woke up pretty early (got a phone call) then spent the time until my history class studying for my Exercise in Sports and Science exam which is right after the history class. I 'kinda' paid attention during the history class but the time was mostly spent reviewing in my head what I was supposed to remember for the exam. So when I left for the ESS class, it was funny because a classmate committed that I "looked tense." :P Well... I had good reason!

The great thing about the exam is... we all got the exam questions before hand (last week) so we could study them before coming in for the actual exam. :P Cool, huh? But it's not so much a great, great thing in that because we have the questions, we're expected to have it down pretty well. Soooo much writing to do! I took almost the whole class (an hour out of the hour and fifteen minute class) to write down the three essay. :S I can tell you that my hand was starting to cramp by the end. lol!

Went home and I was sooo starved that on the way we picked up sushi. MmmmMM~! I love the ikura rolls I can get at Kozo-Sushi! Before my speech class I was doing some things on the computer for Naomi (she needed some files). Speech class was pretty interesting; learning about how we perceive other people based mostly on their appearance and 'roles' (business man, student, parent, etc.). We did an interesting activity where the teacher brought several different 'color schemes' and we had to pick 'what color we are.' You know how people are characterized as white (Caucasian), black (African American), brown (Hispanic), and yellow (Asian)? Well, we got to 'form our own colors'. lol! Maki and I both were (I think) 'Sunland Park.' Coooool, wouldn't you say? Better than 'Mom's Apple Pie' which someone's color was. lol!

Got home and I started working on making the study sheet for my Psychology exam tomorrow. I'm not too worried about it compared to the ESS exam. It's an all multiple choice exam so I don't really have to memorize as intensely as for an exam.

Erin brought home McDonald's for dinner and I watched an episode of Bones. We then had our weekly prayer meeting; afterwards, Erin helped me with my song I chose for musical theatre class. The next assignment is to pick and sing a song from the 20's, 30's, or 40's by either George Gershwin, Jerome Kern, Cole Porter, or Irving Berlin. I decided on Porter's "You're the Top" from the Broadway musical Anything Goes. Very fun and bouncy song; also extremely 'wordy' so my main concern is memorizing the lyrics. :P Thank you Erin for being my piano accompaniment and thank you Naomi for the sheet music!

Went back to studying for the Psychology exam. This weekend is going to be 'interesting' for me; I was suddenly offered three separate babysitting jobs! So I'm gonna be babysitting tomorrow (Thursday night) right after class, Friday from 11 to 4, and Saturday evening. :P It'll be fun though; I love the kids I'm watching and they're very good (and importantly, they listen to me and behave well). ^_^

I'm off to bed now; gonna go to bed slightly early so I can get a good night's rest and be well-prepared for the exam. G'night!
