H-

Got my paper back in class today. My first aussie essay. I flipped to the back to see the grade since during the paper all she did was tick words mostly. Then I saw the big D and "It would have been an H- but it was a day late." I'm sorry, but it wasn't late...so I let her know and she changed it. The H stands for High Distinction and D is just lacking the "High" part. H is as high as they go and they don't give many because for some reason, they are stingy about grading unlike in America. The teacher said H means essentially it's publishable stuff. Wow! And I thought this essay of mine was pretty shoddy...

So that was my great start to the day. Came home, dinner was sausage in a roll.

Watching the news now. I saw the USA weather and that's just weird. Who cares about America here? We don't put their weather on our news. Oh well. And I guess Sarah Palin glasses are all the rage. Makes me barf. I guess some baby formula used an ingredient in plastic to hide the fact that milk in the formula was watered down. Now a bunch of babies have been poisoned over here. :( And also a whale washed up on a beach, dead. It stunk and was HUGE. News!

Have I mentioned the orange soft serve ice cream cones at McDonald's yet? Well...they are orange and now yellow. Weird. Taste fine though.

Tomorrow, off to Canberra! We're leaving at 7. Aaaaaaaah. And not to mention it's a 5 hour drive. Bleh. Getting back at 9 at night I guess...
