I'm not dead.

I'm not sure just how close it was, but the storeroom/purchasing+product ID grades went up 4/23 and I held on to an A. Now we are in meat cutting, and I am struggling to keep track of what is where on animal bodies and what they are called. I need to remember to do my homework, too. It is the same assignment that we got in our (my) first ever lab here at JWU, but two pages longer. Don't wanna. Craig has been watching an awful lot of Power Rangers lately. Quietly swearing to himself at his computer,because the videos lag and stall. If I didn't already know, this along with watching the same music video six times in a row (what makes you beautiful by one direction)would have raised a red flag indicating severe mental retardation. He came back from where-I-don't-know at nine-something and asked "you know what's good?" to which I replied "no." I generally hope that 1 question + 1 answer = brief, yet complete conversation. Maybe I'm retarded, too. "my quiz average is a fifty-five" he says to me. I laughed, because failing every quiz would be a major defeat on my planet. He proceeded to explain how he can still get a B+ in that class, technical writing, and that he is getting an A in sociology. This, if correct, is what makes me question the value of my grades. I feel like there are a lot of feel-good-because-you-tried, everyone-gets-a-gold-star-sticker-type grades being passed out here. I also know of one kid getting a C+ and being pumped, saying his dad won't think he's tarded. Whateva, my gold star stickers are still a four point, so I guess I'll take feeling good about what I've done, and enjoy it for another month.
