  • What a day, today, it was.

    Finally, I get to facebook/blog. Yeah it's a verb already, right? Anyways...

    Today I had to deal with a midterm, so I spent the whole weekend up till right before the respective class time to study for the midterm. It was of 2 sections, the first section was to compare and talk about Churchill's Iron Curtain Speech and Stalin's response to that. The second section, our professor made us STUDY ALL FOUR POSSIBLE questions, the weekend I kept trying to do so, and I said I'll try to do all four, the whole weekend I kept wrecking up trying to find notes and stuff online about the four questions. I did one which was the Proxy Wars, that was easier because it was also lectured, at least one of TWO CASES we need to write for the midterm, and yeah the other one I chose to actually study for in the end was some Rudolf Hoess quote on how he doesnt hate Jews, he just treats them like the 'enemy of the nation'. My answer to that wouldn't really form an ESSAY, for

     say, my answer was basically how the area bombardments, the air control... and how responsibility lied towards a LOCATION as a whole, rather than the military, thus CIVILIANS become involved. "The destruction in/at its entirety" is my summation phrase.

    Anyways, the above 2, that I STUDIED MOST, actually turned out to be "TWO OF THE FOUR" she CHOSE. And I reasoned it with her BEING SICK FOR THE PAST MONTH, SO WE HARDLY HAD CLASS, and the fact that the other two were so much more indepth and specific that she had no real time to discuss and we hardly went over it during the time she was there to teach us. The other two were like "totalitarian state" and also "Africa and Asia", some stuff on that.

    I'm really confident that I did well, and I needed to study ALOT to "ACE" it because I know my current grade for that class is like a C+, and since I spent all this weekend and stuff on studying, I had only time right before my French class, to translate 4 COLUMNS of a PLAY, but I ended up only capable of doing THREE of the FOUR columns, well kudos that I actually managed to get that far lol... I think I am in well reason to be excused lol, History is not my strength, I hardly took History classes, like EVER. US History for Grade 10, World History for Grade 7, and that's it really lol.
