Skip a Class

I'm not in a fabulous mood, but I guess I can blame the chilly wet weather for that. It was soo warm last week, and now it's just miserable. And so am I.
But oh well!
My day started off with an English test in English. All the questions were in English, and so were all the answers. I should've been able to do this blindfolded with both hands tied behind my back. Underwater. The FINNISH guy at the desk next to me got a higher score. Granted it was by one point, but still!!
He was pretty chuffed XD
Art was funny, as I get so sidetracked as I cannot follow the teacher's instructions. I end up doing some pretty weird photoshopping... I have no idea how the teacher is going to grade it!
I spent all of Physics doodling in my diary, so I have no idea what we were doing today.
After school I had the first day of my Uni Finnish Course. This was a bit of a fail.
I was not the one who signed me up for this, my host mother did. And then she told me which book to get and off I went.
This course was for people who have been studying Finnish for at least a year and a half, or for people who's spouses were Finnish. It was Finnish NUMBER FREAKING 2, not NUMBER 1 BASICS, or NUMBER ONE GENERAL, nor NUMBER ONE CONTINUED.
I have been here nearly 4 months, and I am struggling with the basics. The whole class was in Finnish, and all the students were talking to the teacher in Finnish and most of them were adults. There was no one else under that age of 26.
Ahhhh, it was baaaadd.
The teacher said I shouldn't really be there, but I was kind of understanding tiny bits of conversation and I could get the gist of what the book was talking about, so she said I could stay... but it was incredibly embarassing. There were lots of lovely people there though, so I guess that made it 'nicer'.
Anyway, I fell asleep last night writing this, so I am posting it this morning and I really ought to go get ready for school!!

That, is all.
