Happy Birthday, Pete Townshend!
Yep! Today is the fabulous Birdman's 63 birthday. WE LOVE YA, PETE!!!!! Hugs and kisses for the fantasmic guitarist of the "'orrible" Who. ^_^
Okay...Now, that was why my day wasn't horrible.:P
I couldn't think of anything to write...So I drew. Sucky drawing, but it was fun. Very George Michael-ish: she had one cross earring and "WHAM!" written on her tank top.
Yeah...So that was sorta fun.
I got a 94% on my lit EOCT. Not cool. You see, that brought down my GPA. I'm not complaining because of the grade. No, I'm complaining because of how it was graded.
You know how a lot of things are graded on a curve? Like, if a test is really hard, you'll get a higher grade just so the grades even out? Well, that's how it worked for everyone else: I saw people that had missed between eight and ten questions, and they all had grades that were no more than three points below mine.
I missed TWO and I got a 94%. I should have gotten a 98% (it was an 80 question test), or a 97% at the least, but instead I got a low A. So I sound like an overachiever. I know I am one. But I'm aiming for valedictorian, and if my grade is going to be thrown off like that just to match some stupid curve, I don't see how I'll make it.
So, yeah. Just a little pissed off, especially since I checked over the entire test THREE TIMES IN DETAIL.
Anyway...I've got to go study. I have a biology EOCT tomorrow.
The curve should die. If you suck, you suck. Deal with it. But the people that work their asses off to ace a test shouldn't be brought down just to make the people that suck look better.
Another kicker? That grade is 15% OF MY FINAL GRADE.
