Sociology Midterm Troubles

Remember how I said that my Sociology exam was my favourite? Well, today I went to class and my professor had a special announcement. She said that in her 18 years of teaching, she's never had to make an announcement like this. Apparently, the exam content and answers were leaked and shared over social media.

She said that the people making decisions about this were two levels above her, but that this boiled down to the fact that all exams submitted were considered void. Our grade was going to be split over a midterm, a presentation, and a final exam, with the presentation being optional. This means that, without the midterm being considered, we have the option of having a 20% presentation with an 80% final, a 40% presentation with a 60% final, or a 100% final.

I mean, it's technically less work to put it all in one test, but that's a lot of eggs in one basket.

Our professor let us open into a question-answer period, but she warned us "I can't answer anything about anything". This led to some very repetitive questions and answers.

"I don't know if I'm allowed to ask this."

"You can ask."

"How did this person learn the answers?"

"That's confidential."

"Can we at least learn how we did on the test even if it doesn't count?"

"It's all been voided."

"Why is all this information confidential?"

"That's confidential."

And just those questions being rephrased over and over.

Apparently some students take their studies more seriously than I do. One student asked to leave class based on how sudden the news was. The professor seemed on the verge of tears.

I recently broke my bedroom closet. I broke my previous bedroom closet as well, but that was in the small room, so I just put up a tension rod and hung a curtain to replace it. But that was when I was in the small room. I'm in the big room now, and big room means bg closet.

I tripped and crashed into the small closet door, to be fair, which disfigured it and disallowed me to reattach it. I didn't do anything to the large bedroom closet though. It just came apart as I was opening it, as strange as that sounds. I was talking to a neighbor who has lived in the area longer than I, and she says that both her closet doors have come undone some time ago.

Remember how I said, when I was looking for curtains, that the only place that sells proper curtains are those family-owned bargain stores? The big commercial locations like Wal-Mart sell only garbage transparent curtains for some reason. Same deal for curtain rods. The big business places only sell tension rods at sizes too small to fit my closet. But the first random bargain store I went to sold a generic metal pole that fit my purposes quite nicely. I really don't know why the largest corporations have failed to produce large sheets of fabric or long metal poles.

Anyway, my current closet looks slammin'. I don't know why more people don't have curtain closets, unless their closets are so overstuffed that things are leaning against the doorframes, in which case, my default closets would fail anyway. My current curtain closet panel has a far more creative design than the generic whit sliding closet panels we started with.
