I got my graded lesson 10 test back today and I only missed the bottom of the class by maybe two people. The whole class average dropped by about ten points, but I don't think the material we covered was all that hard. It leaves me feeling more than a little confused. Maybe the teacher that made the test is just being a Nazi. But get this, we had the zoo yesterday and spent two hours in class today making a stupid poster out of construction paper, glue sticks, and crayons. I kid you not. I couldn't make stuff like that up if I tried.
Yet some how with all that wasted time the our assignments aren't getting done fast enough for the teachers, so they're "increasing" the pace. We basically have to do the entire workbook for Lesson 13, three pages of drills, and a kanji test by tomorrow. All this so they can try to pinch out Lesson 14 before the placement exam. The problem is with all this rushing through the new material I really don't know what the deuce we're supposed to be learning. It's all a big blur to me and I'm pretty sure my conversation level is actually dropping since we started the new pace.
My classmates invited me to a birthday party shin dig on Saturday but it looks like I'll be stuck trying to fill the gap between my grades and the rest of the class. It's just lame that I can't at least pull out a decent B average on these tests considering how much effort I've been putting into it lately. Anyway, no time and lots of work to do.
