Last Test

Today our classes were shorter (only 50 minutes) because it was a D day and we got out early. We also took our last test in Western Civ. I think it went well. I didn't really know anything but I guessed on everything and hope I get atleast an A. My grade is an A right now but borderline a B so this could make or break my grade. Honestly at this point I dont are because I just want Sumer to be here. I also just found out that is our final blogs so im happy we dont have to do these any more. I realized I didn't have half of the notes for this test until ten minutes before when people were quizzing me and I knew nothing. Its alright though at least I got a good nap it. Yay Im so glad it is already Friday!
