Gods Favor Pt II

sooooo i really didnt mention this earlier cause i was really embarrassed about it. I had a test, 1/4 test in the semester and i chose not to study for it. Well i tried in the trolley and it really didnt work out. It was a tuesday 3 weeks ago and i was not in the mood. I prayed earnestly for answers and provision and Gods grace and i really did not get anything. Turns out it was one of those tests that are like, man i should have studied a little more. Cause it looked so easy! if only i knew a couple of things AHHHHHHHHH. but then today. We were learning about probability and i did not study either. I was dozing off cause i have like this stye like thing but you cant see it in my left eye and i just could not see so it was really hard for me to take notes.

I just gave up and dozed. Then i woke up in time right be4 the quiz when the teacher was saying.
"alright, anyone want to try replacing their grades with any of these?"
He held out a stack of tests from 3 weeks ago that people have not picked up yet.
"its easy. if you pick a grade higher you get that grade, if it is lower you get a lower grade."

See there were a couple things running through my mind.

1. These people who have not picked up their test have been gone. They have been absent so what more if they took that test. I have been to every calss except one and they beat me already by a day, at least. So who knows if they got a good grade?

2. Someone picked up their test today for being absent after 4 days of class, he had an 85.

3. i got a 70.


So i raised my hand and found out i was the only one who did. everyone was like. ohhhhhhhhh i woke everyone up cause of the excitement.

"Come on up" he said.

As i got up you could hear the classmates giggling
and this one Latina softly saying, "don't do it.." as i passed by.

But this was an opportunity and this test was something i was not proud of. I had to do something. While i was trying to maneuver myself out of the isle, as if it was at a movie theatre, the teacher was shuffling about 6 tests in his hand. I could feel everyone hoping/guessing/excited for what i was doing. It was pretty cool. Then i chose it.

I flipped the test and saw an 80. Wasnt bad definately better. But man an 80! thats ten points higher! Thats waaaay better than a C. As i walked back to my seat, i wuickly turned around saying,

"Wait, you don't know my name?!" everyone laughed.
As the teacher released a quick giggle, he said

"alright alright just write it on your quiz ill give ya your ten points" '
And to top it all off, i saw the quiz and quickly recognize it from stats! How cool was that? im pretty sure i did really well, besides its 5 points for taking it and 5 questions each to add to those 5 points. possible 10? im sure i got 4/5 of em right =D I then wrote in bold and big letters at the bottom corner of my quiz
PLEASE GIVE ME +10 POINTS
~Adrian Mique The guy who picked the test

i finally got to leave early!

Wow it's really cool. God's timing. thas all i got to say.
