Exams

Two exams done, one to go. Well, technically two to go but the other one I take at home and then just have to come back on Thursday and turn it in. I think I did well today which I am very happy about. I was more concerned with my law exam than my German exam. Most of the law stuff seemed like common sense but you never know when a teacher is going to send you through a loop. So I was kind of nervous but just told myself I knew what I was talking about, if I thought about it, I should get it. So, I got the exam and there were 4 essays, one was chosen that we had to do, we got to pick which of the other three we wanted to do. I wrote my ten page paper on international humanitarian law and got an A, so I know my stuff there. So I look at the essays and guess whats on there: international law of human rights. It's basically the same thing; I was so happy I could cry. lol Then I thought well I've got one, what about the mandatory one, that's where teachers usually get you. It was on the use of force. That was like all common sense so I was happy all over again. I really think I did well...hopefully anyways. :)

Then German really wasn't too shabby; I remembered my verbs and I think my two essays were decent enough. I was running out of things to say so I just started blabbing. Apparently my sister and I flew to Germany so we could get our nails painted and I could get my bellybutton pierced. Obviously none of it really has to make sense, it just has to show we know the vocab and grammer. Grammer more than anything. So yeah, over all it was a good day. Considering I really didn't prepare for either one, I just told myself I knew it and not to stress out and it worked. :) Now I have statistics for the next exam...there I'm screwed. Im just passing the class right now so this exam could make or break me. That I really will study and I really will stress. Such is life though...just counting down the semesters until I'm out.
