❄️ ... And one month more of dealing with this substitute teacher. Sigh.
Anyway, time to do my weekly French assignments. I have been practicing how to pronounce "regarde" without choking on my spit, and so far I think I have managed to do it correctly. Still a long way to go, tho! Haha.

❄️ I know I'm only complaining this time, but really, people have gotten on my nerves this week all the time.

❄️ I really dislike substitute teachers because you can see they are not taking their work seriously and are improvising 95%. They are basically disrespecting all of the students by being like this. We depend on them to learn and get good marks, and this is what they give us.

❄️ So she decided it was a great idea to: 1. arrive late and 2. make us do an activity to evaluate something she hadn't even taught us about. Great.
Obviously, I didn't do that good and now I'm really pissed off. It wasn't fair at all.

❄️ We also had a surprise exam a few days ago. We have a new Customer Service teacher, and she is the worst. I really dislike her. Probably because she voiced out her political opinions freely the very first day, for no reason and all, and she has been acting in a very passive-agressive way.

❄️ The reason I wanted a 9,6 or more is because that way, even if I didn't get a 10, the mark can be rounded up (?) to 10 during the final evaluations. Welp.

❄️ I got a 9,5 out of 10, which I'm pretty bummed about. I thought I would get at least a 9,6 or 9,7... but apparently I didn't. This woman is really, really annoying because she wants you to write everything BY THE BOOK. I don't know if I have mentioned it already, but yeah. Sigh.

❄️ We are almost at the end of January. Next Monday I have another Professional Training exam. The teacher won't leave us alone, I swear! Just two days ago I got to see the mark for my last exam.

🎄 I'll probably try to go over the sections 1, 3 and 4 and leave the second for later because it's the biggest one. I also sent an email to my teach, whining and crying (heh) and hopefully she listens to me and agrees to only ask on the exam about the exercices she sent us.

🎄 So yep, I have to study like, 10 pages worth of notes in two weeks. I hope I can manage. And tomorrow is New Year's Eve, oh god!
I also need to finish a portrait for my grandma. I don't really know how I'm gonna do all this, but believing is seeing!!! Yes!

🎄 Problem with this exam is that the teacher wants you to write what it says on the book... letter by letter. I'm not kidding you. I got a... 9,49 out of 10? last time because I put "the oldest one" instead of "the oldest in age". She penalized me with -0.20!! Ugh!

🎄 Anyway, I have two weeks to study for the Professional Training exam. This unit is about contracts and all that, and I feel like it's interesting and pretty useful but there's just... SO MUCH to study!

🎄 Can't fight against it, same way you can't fight annoying neighbours, so the only way is to work around it and find ways to plug your ears. Sigh.

🎄 He has been playing videogames from day to night this Christmas while hollering like a gorilla, so I have been struggling with my stress levels and moments of focus and relaxation. I have pretty sensitive earing, and I especially dislike when people are loud for no reason.

🎄 So far, they work well. They are not as effective as earplugs, and I can hear my heartbeat, which can be a little distracting (and anxiety inducing, but I have to work on that), but so far so good. I'm not gonna wear them all day anyway, just when... this family relative decides to be loud.

🎄I got a cheap pair of noise cancelling headphones today as a Christmas present, so I'm gonna test them out right now while I go over my notes for Professional Training.

🎄 I have to thank Gemini and the book I purchased, because without them I don't think I would have been able to understand half of a thing about Accounting. And this subject is sooo important for administration work.... I can't afford to fall behind or ignore it.

🎄 Thankfully, I got a 8.6 out of 10. I'm happy with that, because most people in my course got bad grades (highest score apart from mine was a 6, I think).
Still, I wish I could have gotten more. But given how chaotic she was, I guess it was kind of impossible.

🎄 So yep, that's why I didn't study that much, because I knew she could just drop anything on the exam, and it wouldn't matter how much I studied. How are we supposed to know anything if we haven't seen it in class? I swear, it was really frustrating.

🎄 For example, in this last exam there was one exercise where you had to calculate how much income and expenses a business had after doing some operations. We hadn't practiced that type of exercise at all in class!! Big sigh.

🎄 It was basically hellish, going to her classes always gave me a headache. She was really chaotic and would refuse to give us clues as to what was going to appear in the exam!

🎄 You might wonder why, and that's because the teacher kept refusing to follow the book we had purchased for that subject, kept doing whatever she wanted during the classes and explaining concepts about accounting way before we were even supposed to tackle them.

🎄Hello, beautiful people. It's been a while. Today was my last day at my course before the holidays!
I had one last exam (Accounting!!) and I have to confess, I didn't study that much for it.

Gotta say, 2 out of 5 were kind of ambiguous like "learning French" or "getting a public job" (which I stopped studying for since I started with this course... so yeah, haha.).

17 days more until Christmas. I'm gonna blink and it's gonna be the 20th at this rate, I swear, haha.
The year will also change in a few weeks. I still haven't thought about which things I'm choosing as my New Year's resolutions. I'll have to think about it. This year I managed to do 1 out of 5...

I still have two more exams (Accounting AGAIN and another subject related to jobs, contracts, worker's rights, etc. in which you basically have to learn and write everything by the book... sigh). And also an assignment for my Customer Service class.
