Well poop

I had my first test today in my WSU class...and I think I did terrible. 

The worst part is: I KNOW THIS STUFF!!!  If you'd sat me down with pen and paper and told me to write the history of Spain from the Neanderthals to 1492 (and the Spanish provinces and rivers), I TOTALLY COULD HAVE DONE IT!  Maybe I wouldn't have every date and emperor down, but I'd do pretty darned well.  However, this test was totally different.  Things I thought would be on there weren't; things I didn't think would be on there were.  ...  Bah. 

So. Flippin'. Upsetting.

I tried so hard and it feels like it was for nothing.  I KNEW at the time that I was messing up, but I just kept thinking: better to have put something down and have it be wrong than leave it blank. 

Who knows if Wilks will have them graded by Monday. 

I guess the good news is that I have more tests yet to come to off-set this bad score...? 

...

Honestly, I'm just so disappointed in myself.  This whole balancing work and school thing just sucks. 

I'd really like to curl up in bed and stay there for a few days.
