Well, I managed to get a 91% on my history test, and a high grade on my Econ test as well. I'm not sure how, but it works for me. Not sure how my Spanish test went, but probably not horribly.

This last week has been a little bit more dodgy than I expected. A Spanish assignment cropped up that kicked off my tri-annual panic attack for the fall. I had to give a 10 minute presentation on Andres Segovia, who is apparently obscure as frak. Biographers contradict each other on him regularly: Some say he was married three times, some say two. Those that say two attribute his two children by the first wife to the second one. No one knows when he was born. Only some people acknowledge he had a daughter. It was something of a nightmare, and I don't think I did particularly well.

I am, as of this writing, sitting in my last class before Thanksgiving Break. Which sounds wonderful, as I need a break, b

Well, I now know what it is I was forgetting; a Spanish test in two days and a chapter in the workbook. Fun fun fun.

I suppose I should put something else here also, as this seems like something of a waste of a posting. If anyone's out there reading these things, it'd be somewhat interesting to hear what you'd like to see put here. And no, you cannot has cheeseburger.

I also have a History 110 test tomorrow, but I feel like I might have mentioned that before. I haven't studied, and am not likely to, since I don't take notes in the class. I figure it's alright; I got a 95% on the last test under the same circumstances, and why fix what isn't broken, right? Right? Either way, I have a bit of leeway with my grade in that class, what with an average of about 93%.

On the Neo front, oh my goodness, one of my old friends has been allowed to return from the depths of perma-ban Hell. Welcome back, M

So I haven't written one of these in a long time. Oh well. I doubt anyone will read what I write anyway, or care, and in a way that's how I like it. I'm comfortable being unknown; it's what I do.

In any case, things have been busy as of late. Papers and tests and general madness. However, that's mostly over at the moment, and things have settled into a disquieting calm. I managed a B+ on my paper for HIS110, even though I horribly mucked it up in places and didn't come close to meeting the requirements. I know this much: Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries was a frakked up place, ridiculous and doomed. I'm not sure how I did on my other papers/tests yet, but I'll likely find out tomorrow.

So now I'm sitting here with no homework, and nothing to do. This scares me. I know that somewhere I'm forgetting something, that my professors are plotting somewhere behind the curtain to bring down a h
