So over the past week or two, we've been going over this very large and complicated chapter in biology. The majority of us didn't even understand what was going on until today. We had no idea when our test would be and then today our teacher says "Well, I was planning on having the test Tuesday, but I saw that you 10th graders have two other tests that day. So we can vote to see if we will take it Tuesday or tomorrow." What she failed to realize is that half of the class is also freshmen who have 5 tests tomorrow as it is. So she asks for those in favor of taking it tomorrow and all of six people raise their hands (this is in a class of like 20) and so instead of agreeing with the majority, she says, "Oh, well I'm just going to veto the option to do it Tuesday. We'll do it tomorrow anyway." >:/
SO... we are given one evening to completely understand two sub-kingdoms, one with four phylums and one way of classifying, and the other with five phylums and three ways of classifying, plus the unique characteristics of each phylum and an example of each. Yayyyyy..... this does not make me happy.
So with my Starbucks double-shot frappuccino from earlier, and with a mind set on determination, I will conquer kingdom Protista. Because if we get an 85 or above on this test, we won't have to outline the entire next chapter like we did with this one.
Pray for me.
