I Love Open Book Tests!

Just made a 97% on the online midterm for Music History. Hooray! True, it was heavy on recognizing the music being played, but there were only 33 pieces to memorize.

Tomorrow I have tests for Psych, Human Growth & Development AND a listening quiz for my classroom Music History course -- which will be very tough as it's 18 pieces of mostly 4 voice polyphonic music. Talk about all sounding the same. All of these tests have to be taken earlier than the rest of my classmates because I'll be out of town when the actual tests will be given, thus I shall be at a distinct disadvantage. Ah well, I'll be definitely ready to go on a vacation after tomorrow!

Upside Down!

Just checked on Guinevere, and found her upside down. She was fine an hour ago. She was getting very tame also. Wonder if she was sick when we got her? If so, I guess it was good that I housed her separately from Hamlet. The only other thing I can think of is that she had a habit of hanging upside down and either fell or choked. What bad luck!

Lack of Motivation

Been busy busting tail to get ahead in all my courses before I leave for Turkey next week.

One teacher told me there's practically no chance of getting an "A" in the course because 10% of the grade is based on attendance. (Not exactly in those words, but I got the gist of the message) That's the same percentage as the midterm! Well, I certainly won't be trying so hard in that class. OK, rant over.
