Whatever Matt Feels Like Posting

I think I did pretty well on both of my finals today.

I finished my English test, but sadly, only because I stayed in class for 20 extra minutes. :(

I felt SO awkward giving my speech, though. Y'see, normally I write the notecards for my speech in my shorthand (because I don't know the official shorthand, so I make up my own). However, I've recently added some new symbols to my shorthand - any word that, when translated to Spanish, sounds like an English letter is replaced with that letter with a tilde (~) over it (as well as an accent in the case of "what" to distinguish it from "that", since in Spanish, those are "qué" and "que", respectively). Since I hadn't been using these as long, it was harder to read them, so I had to look at my notecards most of the time. Though, since everyone in the class says I did really well, apparently I did...

Tomorrow is my Spanish exam. All I have to do for it is write at least 100 words about almost anything in English beforehand (which I have) and translate it to Spanish in class. Shouldn't be too hard :)

I've typed up all of my notecards for the research paper, so now I need to write them on actual notecards. I also have to work on a review for a test over A Painted House, do this worksheet for Spanish (shouldn't be too hard), and read a few pages in my history textbook by Thursday. And if I get time, I have to work on HAS and my math assignment that's due after Spring Break.

Later today, that is. (it's after midnight in my time zone, so technically it's "later today" and not "tomorrow")

Your assignment: repost this

I just barely passed my English test today, AND I have another 1200-1500 word research paper to write by April 15 (and even if the apocalypse is March 25 like my dream predicted, there's still notecards and stuff to write before then). *sigh* There go a few more potentially good days of my life.

Die of notecards

For my 200th LJ entry (my profile will say 201, but that's because I haven't deleted the welcome entry that's automatically made for new users), I decided to do something completely pointless: take the first word from my first post, the second word from my second post, the third word from my third post, and so on, all the way up to this one. (If post #X has Y words, and Y is less than X, then the remainder of X ÷ Y is Z, and I use the Zth word instead, or the last if Z is zero.) And yes, this is a ripoff of 160 Seconds.

( Context )

While doing this, I've noticed that I have quite a few posts that are exactly 48 words long, by the way. Coincidence?

On a less pointless note, I had to get my braces tightened again today. And this time, there are rubber bands holding the top and bottom braces together (which have to be changed every time I eat or brush my teeth, and also before I go to bed), so it probably won't pull a my wisdom teeth this time. :(

That's as likely as me being able to write notecards with no help.
