Today was sadly a not so good class. We started off with a fire drill. The alarm made my ears hurt and it was cold outside so that wasn't much fun. Even better was that when we came back in Mr. Schick did another one of his pop quiz surprises that I got 2 out of 10 correct. My grade is already low in this class because I didn't submit a blog the day I was out for the play saying I was out. Because of this, I now have a C in this class (which is so unlike me) and will drop even more from this pop quiz. It doesn't make sense but oh well I'll survive I guess. I mean it's only a few days into the second quarter and my grades are already falling apart. I even told myself that my goal for this marking period was to get my grades together and make honors. First quarter my GPA was 3.987. I guess not enough. So here's hoping for this quarter. My prayers go to my grades.
