so you ask yourself it seems likd Katie has this down pat. Like she spent far too long memorizing it. why is she not happy with the high grade she was bound to get.
Well because my oh sooo wonderful professor decided toput questions on this DOUBLE quiz grade that he regretfully neglected to warn us about.
so i got a whoping 77 and spent an hour of my life (which i'll never get back) memorizing a whole bunch of crap that i probably could have made the same grade not knowing.
GGGRRRR . . .
Peace kids
