Day au Bastilles
YAY I failed another math test. That makes me two for two! I did pretty well on the practice sheet, but then got a 58 (out of 120 D: ) on the actual exam. Zuh?
The teacher recommends that anyone who fails two or more tests drop the class. However, I know that most people failed or scored really badly on the first test (fucking logarithms), and at least one or two handfuls of people did badly on the second test as well (Cute Bow In Hair Girl, who I thought would score really well, got a lower score than I did. Glasses do not make you smart), so does that mean that most of the class should just drop, three quarters of the way through the semester?
The way I see it (and yes, this is partly because I keep failing exams), one or two students in your class flunking out is normal-- some people just have trouble. If everyone in your class (except for the guy who always scores well because he's apparently sleeping with the teacher) is failing, that means YOU ARE NOT A GOOD TEACHER.
Wonder if I can go to the Dean and say something like "My teacher is dumb, may I have another please?"
So, considering just jumping on a plane as soon as possible and hauling my ass out to TN early, to save myself the trouble (and gas money) of continuing on with this class just so I can fail. I'd be happy to grow a mullet and work at a liquor store if I never had to see Joe Badrena again. (I think it'd be different to be a PSO in Big Mendy's house with all those kids running around all the time. It's still an option, though, if I can get my own place.)
In other news, I designed a Batman Hat with fold-down mask and I am excited to try making it. Before that though, I have TWO MORE COMMISSIONS OMG. Hopefully these won't give me as much trouble as the Panda Hat kept giving me, though that was partly my fault for trying to do difficult applique while falling asleep at the machine. (Also I found out that you're supposed to change your needle for a new one in the machine every so often, like changing oil in your car. Who Knew? Well, I did, after the needle in my machine snapped in half and pinwheeled crazily across the room, nearly taking my eye out.)
I might make little coasters from the scraps of fabric I have left, and applique flowers on them or something. My mom decided that she wants to use her old wooden saddle rack as a coffee table (or... something), and I've been using scraps as coasters anyway... wonder if there's a market for those.
Also: HELP ME MOVE. ORDER A HAT. THEY ARE PRETTY. IT WILL NOT BE HOT FOREVER. (one day I will be able to stop asking random people online for money. One day.)
