test day

Today in human geography we had our final big test for the quarter. I studied for a while last night, and in our off mod today. I think and hope I did well because our grades close tomorrow. I thought the test wasn't that difficult. There were a few that I got stuck on like the question about GPS, but we didn't learn about that. I wonder if we got it right we get an extra point. There was another one about degrees and the country were it was located but I just took a guess so hopefully it was correct. I felt good about the test so hopefully I did well for our last grade. It's crazy how fast the quarter went by and I can't believe its over.
