Staying Afloat

So today hasn’t been that great. I woke up this morning still tired (probably from all the driving, well riding, this weekend) and with a sense of dread. I had a French exam today that I didn’t study a whole lot for. I was planning on doing it last night, but the TV kept drawing me in. It felt so good to just cuddle with Robert and not think about school for one more night. I know I should have gotten up and studied, but there is something there I just can’t describe. But anyways, I arrived early this morning so I at least had time to make the copies for art. Logo was an ok class. We played each others games we’ve been working on for over a week. My partner and I have had trouble coming up with a good score sheet, and that seems to be what everyone had issues with. Plus one of our rules got too wordy. I figure too bad for them, but we’ll fix it up on Thursday. I arrived at the room for art at 9:30, class doesn’t start until 9:35. We were all getting our hopes up because the door was still locked. The professor always has the door unlocked early in the morning. So we had most of the class standing outside the door waiting for her. We were going to give her a few more minutes to show up before we all left. Then two girls left to go find her. GRRR! I would have been more than happy to use that time to study for my French exam. While others were giving their presentations (everything they said was on the handout), I looked over my notes for French. When it was my turn, I went up there, gave my speech, and almost went to go sit down. However, the professor had some questions for me, which I answered. The best part of the entire thing was when she said the first part of my question was right, but the second part was wrong. Those were the words she used. Talk about making someone feel small in front of all their peers. I wanted to just go sit down, but I had to stand in front of the class while she corrected me. I don’t think I will ever do that to a student. That just isn’t right! Art finally finished, so it was onto French. I took one last glance over my notes, then took my best shot at the test. I think I actually did pretty well. I am hoping I got a B. I would be happy with that. I just have had a bad day. I needed to talk to someone. Robert isn’t in his office or at lunch (the last I looked). I don’t know where Liz is. I just need to talk to someone and get a hug. I did get some good news while waiting for my art professor to show up. I found out that my environmental ed. lab was canceled for today. That is about the only good thing. Plus I went to Papa Murphy’s to pick up my paycheck and get my schedule for the week. For some reason Mike put me as having all week off. I have to call today and find out what’s up with that. Finances are already tight. I can’t afford another week off. But that’s my life in a nutshell. Canada was a blast, and I wish I was still there. Guess I’ll go find someone now. Write more later.
