Exam week

Been busy with school. I've got three exams this week, and possibly a quiz on Thursday if the Spanish teacher gets mad at us again. She has a tendency to get very irritated with the class almost spontaneously and unprovoked. There are a lot of whiners in the class for sure, but she has a habit of saying, "Oh my God, I've told you this a million times, and I won't say it again..." and proceeds to tell us something I'm certain she's never said even once. I take good notes; I would know.
My exams are in Anatomy & Physiology, the corresponding lab, and College Algebra. The A & P lab exam is on Epithelial and Connective tissue cells, and body regions, while the A & P lecture exam is on myriad facts from chapters 1 through 4. An unbelievable amount of information to cover but hopefully I'll do alright. The Algebra exam should be fairly easy- word problems. The only one's I have trouble with are mixture problems that involve percentages. We're supposed to use our calculators for those ones and I am not proficient with a calculator. I'm dreading the graphing chapters.

A real piece of bad news in the last 2 minutes. I went out to check my bike and my back tire was slack. It's letting air out around the valve, which is bad news. So I won't be riding her to school this morning, or Wednesday for that matter. I have a back up bike (World Sport) but I have too many books to carry to class and I can't put my basket on it. Plus it would probably break half way through the trip.
