I took the second American Heritage midterm exam yesterday and on the "Speed Back" portion, I got 89%. I'm not really happy with that, but there is nearly half a test worth of essay points still to be graded, so it could go up. Beyond that, I spend ALL my time studying. I have an invitation to go to Manti for Jackie Springgay's first time through the Temple, which I have declined. I seriously need to devote myself to the rest of the text and readings for American Heritage and then devour the Family History in order to utilize the Library in Salt Lake and the resources here on the campus. If I don't get it all completed, it will take me WEEKS to get even one film to view in Nauvoo.
So, wish me luck on the downward slope of this seven-week slippery slide! The days speed by, but each is interminably long in itself. We put rags in the doors of the floor rest room (which is RIGHT BY MY HEAD!!) so that the "middle of the nighters" wouldn't slam that blinkin' door shut and wake me up AGAIN.
