Today I went to volunteer at O'Bryant and there was a senior class reading their final poems that they had written. They were called "boasts" because the poem was supposed to be written like an ancient Greek piece to brag about their accomplishments and how great of a person they were. The kids were referring to themselves as "___ the Great" and it was definitely a unique assignment I have never heard of before. A lot of the poems were actually surprisingly good and at one point I felt like I was at a poetry slam. It was definitely one of the more enjoyable times I've had at O'Bryant, to be honest maybe the only one, but cool to see some works being read out loud.
Oh, also I'm 99.9% sure I failed my chemistry test yesterday and I really couldn't afford to do that so I guess I can cry about it when my grade comes back. I did fine last semester in chemistry but I don't know if it's because the material is a lot harder this semester or if I have a new teacher now and I just can't learn from him but I am high-key struggling. Hopefully I didn't do as bad as I feel like I did but also I'm not ready for the cumulative chemistry exam coming up later this month. It's so crazy how my first year of college is almost over, I feel like I just found out I was even coming to Northeastern a few days ago. Yikes let me just ride out this wave of existential crisis real quick.
Bye:)
