I have to admit, I am not my chipper self at the moment. Blame the poem I chose for my English exam. It's called "Dogs" by Ronald Wallace. It was pretty depressing in my eyes. It's about a guy that accidentally kills a dog when he is 6 and dogs punish him the rest of his life. I wanted to cry at one point during the exam but held back the tears. I can't even remember what I wrote about the poem. Probably crap. 
I'll probably get a B out of English, which is fine by me. Also on this exams, he had to write an essay on Oedipus Rex, which I think I bombed, and a few IDs on phrases from the two Flannery O'Connor stories we had to read. My IDs were short but I hope to the point. I was not going to write a page about Red Sammy's Barbecue.
That's all for now. I need to get that poem off my mind.

The poem thing reminds me of my AP English exam. It was about a toad that got run over by a lawn mower and lay there dying. Most people thought it was sarcastic, but I was horrified. I though for sure I wouldn't get higher than a 3 for writing about how sorry the author felt for a toad. Instead, I got a 5. So you never know...maybe you'll get an A+ and have the best exam ever.

Four more!
You see if you were at the big university down the road you'd be done by now. 
Well, at least I only have one exam a day.
