in spanish, mrs. froehlich was telling us our grades, calling us up one-by-one. my grade is a 71, which is better than i expected. she showed me that and then showed me the grade with my midterm averaged in --- a 69. she was talking pretty loud, i wasn't embarassed because the majority of people in my class were failing anyways. she kept repeating herself, saying, "don't blow the 69." she had quite a few different ways to repeat it.
"don't blow it on the 69."
"if you blow it on the 69, it's over."
"please cristobal, don't blow the 69."
by the time i was walking away it processed that at least half the class was cracking up, and i started with them. needless to say, spanish was extremely hilarious.
