Mediterranean, Two Days:
Went back to school for two days in between ports. I’ll just give a brief overview. We were able to watch the world cup final! It was so fantastic. The only sucky part was that I had a marketing test that next day, so I had to do some studying during the game. Luckily, I’d been reading for that class every night in port, all through Italy and Croatia. I guess that most of the kids were super behind in the reading. The test was on so much of the reading too. I ended up getting a 72.5%, but that was the highest grade in the class, so I got a hundred when it was all said and done! Woop woop! I also just found out that I got a hundred on the global studies test too! Which isn’t exactly true. It was curved too, but still got top marks! I got a ninety on my trade test, but that was the highest score too. I’m not sure about that class. It’s a little nutty. To say the least. Got some rest on the ship sorta. Took long naps, though they didn’t necessarily help. Haha. Getting behind in sleep! Excited for Greece!
