Quarter Final Annoyances and Rain

On Monday and Tuesday we've been having quarter finals. One, I've decided that I prefer the semester system. Two, I am tired of kids who do well trying to cheat so that they can do even better. Three, I wish students would study, but I suppose that's a case of horses and troughs. For example, I am in the middle of grading my juniors' English exam. It was not long, I told them exactly where I got the questions from, and their test covered less chapters than the other classes'. But did they study? I can tell that they didn't, not many of them, anyway. One junior did not even show up for his test. ARGH.

It rained on Sunday night, the day I wrote the last post. I posted it on Monday, but the site still says that I posted it on Sunday. Well, it also rained last night (Monday for me). Rained so much that it left puddles and lots of humidity. Was so windy that it left a puddle on my bed--again. *sigh* And laundry day's not until Friday afternoon...guess I'll have to use Emily's nice-smelling spray to cover up the smell until I can dry out the mattress and wash the sheets.

Okay, well, this was a random after-classes post.
