This week has already been interesting...

Here we are, not even halfway through this week, and I have already had to deem it "interesting". This week can be not be better described by any other word or phrase in the English language.

Monday:
+I found out that my Spanish exam had like 19 points added to it.
-I got a failing grade on my Second Language Acquisition exam.
-I (probably) failed my Phonetics exam.
-My iPhone stopped working.

Tuesday:
+The women's basketball team won, so I get to go to Dallas on Friday.
-I am one of only two trumpet players on the trip. *scary*
+My iPhone decided to start working again.
+/-I dropped my SLA class
--Two Athens-Clarke County police officers were shot and one died.

So yea, pluses and minuses all over the place!


You may be wondering why I labeled the officers being shot as a super negative. Well, it hits pretty close to home. My mom and step-dad are both police officers, and because of that, I have several friends who are in the law enforcement profession. Hearing that someone had the audacity to shoot and kill a police officer infuriates me! Jamie Hood, the shooter, deserves nothing less than death. My prayers go out to Officer Tony Howard as he recovers from his injuries and also to the family and friends of Officer Elmer "Buddy" Christian as they grieve for their loss.
