You've Got Something Brown There...

So far, so good. This day is chugging along quite quickly! I still have a midterm to face this afternoon, but whenever I dread tests I remind myself that it's over in an hour. I can handle anything for an hour!

Plus, tests are a whole lot easier when you take the whole I'll-just-wing-it-and-not-stress approach. I've never been a studier, and I've always done fine- I attribute it to a combination of an excellent memory (I remember stuff from when I was as young as three that even my parents forget), solid writing skills and a little something brown on my nose whenever I talk to teachers.


I have absolutely zero shame about this. In high school the level of sucking up might have been a bit excessive, though...I'll never forget being called out on it by a French teacher once.

You know what else helps to ace a test? Proper fuel.


For today's pita-pocket lunch, I enjoyed a spicy tofu and a Hawaiian tofu sandwich, along with a container of watermelon chunks and a cashew cookie Larabar.


On that note, I'm off. Wish me luck!

Were you a teacher's pet, or a less annoying student? Are you a hardcore studier, or do you take a less intense approach? I will admit that my major isn't the most challenging one out there, though...
