What have I been doing this summer? Not much

This summer has been a summer of trying to get through my last two Spanish classes along with some other things. The first class I had was SP 201 which is the first part of Intermediate Spanish. It was a pretty good class. Our teacher, Francia Martinez was so bubbly and made it a fun class to go to. She kept us so busy that it seemed like the two hour class period went by very fast everyday. There was three people in that class that I had already knew. Lacosta, the girl from Magnolia where I grew up, was there. It was pretty cool to be in there with her to I could get to know her a little bit better because we had only had SP 101 together. I would like to say that I came out of that class with an A-, my first A in college Spanish.
I am about to enter my last week of SP 202, the second part of the class. I only had one bad test, the first one. All of the class didn't do very well on it either. My grades are looking pretty darn good if I have to say so.
Also this summer I adopted a dog. His name is Buddy and he just what his name implies. He is the best buddy anyone could ask for. He is so sweet. I have tried to pick at him and get him riled up so he would fight with me but I can't get him mad. He just looks at me and goes after my hand a little bit so I'll stop. He follows me around the house and keeps me company wherever I go. I am starting to get really attached to him. Also I have found out what being a dog owner is all about. When he first came to my house there were a couple of bathroom accidents but we got that squared away and he now is used to the house and me so that is good. I'm not that good with the actual walking of the dog seeing as I don't get much exercise by myself, but maybe that will improve. By the way if you are looking for a dog and you live in Alabama or somewhere around adopt from Rebecca Harshman from Montevallo, Alabama. She is on Petfinder as Becky and her adoption place is called Save A Stray, or something to that effect. She gets dogs that people have left on the side of the road and gives them a home. She is is very knowledgeable about dogs and she loves to meet new people. I would highly recommend her.

One semester down

Exam week was the first week in May. It had its ups and downs. My Modern Drama exam was not bad at all. Dr. Voss was his jolly ol' self and cracked me up a couple time before he gave out he exam.
My Spanish exam was not as bad as I thought it was going to be. My SP 101 exam was so awful that I expected this one to be the same, but Dr. Maxwell had prepared us really well. It would have been awful if she hadn't prepared us. It was bittersweet walking out of that exam because I knew I wouldn't be able to have her as a teacher anymore, but I also knew I wouldn't have to be in a Spanish class for at least three weeks.
My last exams of the week were awful. I showed up at my EN 300 exam without my book, not knowing that part of the exam was open book. I was the only one who didn't have my book. It was quite embarassing. It all worked out because the girl sitting in front of me had been in a lot of my classes this year so it wasn't that bad when she lent me her's because I knew her better that anyone else. My Shakespeare class was ten times worse. Granted it was on the last day of exam week and by this time I just want to get the exam over and leave campus. Well, Dr. Burke's exams aren't let's just get this over with. He likes his students to learn things while they are taking his final exams. So while we are writing five page essays we are supposed to be learning something. Heck, I suck at writing papers in four weeks much less within two hours. Dr. Burke is a very nice man but his exams suck.
Besides all of the heck I went through during exam week I passed all my classes. I had B pluses in Modern Drama and Spanish and Cs in EN 300 and Shakespeare.
