Two More Exams

Okay, so I've done two exams now. First one was for Developmental Psych, and I'm annoyed, because I have no confidence in how I did, but everyone else thought it was easy. My student mentor told me he got a grade in the high nineties and that this class should raise me up. Hmph. Psych was my second-worst grade last year. I guess I'm just not good at it.

Second exam was for Social Service Systems, and I have a bit more confidence in that one, but nobody else felt the same. I'm not elated about this one either, though. I felt better about both my paper, and my presentations. I would far rather like to write papers than do tests.

Hey, remember how I said that my school serves beer on Tuesday mornings? Well, they changed it to Thursday afternoons. A bit more traditional time to be drinking. But one of my teachers instructs a yoga class on Thursdays, so I have to choose between beer and yoga :(

I got something in the mail, giving me an option to get my G1 license extended. This is a real lifesaver, as I thought I wouldn't be able to renew it and would have to wait another year to be eligible for my G2.

I went home last weekend and got some birthday gifts, since my family hadn't been in a financial position to get me gifts on my actual birthday. Got a new keyboard for my laptop, since the one I have is missing a space bar and the A key is weird. I got a hand vacuum.  Same brand as the one that never worked last year, but this one works fine. I got a beard trimmer. I'm looking forward to perfectly uniform beard trims in the future, but so far, I've been scared to try it out.

And, hey!!! My sunflower's head is gone! And so is all of my neghbour's heads!!! I thought my neighbour had harvested them, and thought he'd do mine as well, but I talked to him, and apparently, one morning, they were just all gone. He blames the squirrels. But all in one night???? I sense foul play. And all those zucchini flowers falling off prematurely.... Who's cutting up our flower heads?!

I'm signed up with the Respect Campaign and ESL again. I've been asked to speak on behalf of ESL Leaders this coming Wednesday at our first meeting. It's a bit of an honour, actually.

I've got another exam this Thursday for Group Process and Dynamics.  And then I have a roleplay to do with some Second Year students. That isn't something I will be graded on, but they will be. But I've been assigned to them and if I don't show, I cause trouble. So I might as well consider it mandatory.

In this roleplay, I will be a middle-school boy who is disclosing my homosexuality to my fundamentalist Christian mother. Really going to have to put my acting skills to good use for this one.
