Yesterday I accomplished little, besides investing from Wal*Mart in two olive green washcloths, four tiny freezer containers, and a portable file storage tote. My splurge for the month of May was on a brown Sonic the Hedgehog t-shirt and the Willy Wonka film soundtrack (which is scrumdiddlyumptious).
To score a low "A" in Latin, I must make exactly a 100 on the final. Great. It is possible for me to score a 95-ish, and with the extra credit assignment, I might then have a 100. If only I had not butchered the conjugation section on the third exam, I would have had a "B" for it, instead of the 79. Scheisse.
The Latin and Greek Terminology final commences at 4:30. After I finish putting away laundry, I'll study my notes for an hour or two, then concentrate for the Latin exam taking place at 10:30 tomorrow morning. The instructor assured us our conjugations would be synopses rather than complete tables, id est, he will ask for the third person plural of some word. That means I must focus on recognizing all the subjunctive forms of verbs for sentence parsing. I must also make an ablative case chart to memorize (though I know most of them well enough).
The ablative case is my friend.
