Report Cards (From the other side of the Tracks)

530 days ago
	Well, report cards come out this week and now I think I understand why we never really did anything in school around the time these vile pieces of paper came out. It was simply because the teachers were exhausted getting all the little kinks out of the report card making machines. True, the system we have here sucks monkeys balls, but it is not only that. A lot of human error is closely scrutinized at this time and so people's tempers seem to be up a bit. But then on the bright side of life, Ramadan has started. Now I have a perfect excuse for my non-partying spirit (since all the nightclubs are closed) and now Kiky is waking up even earlier than me in the morning! It was great this morning... both of us got up at 3am and had breakfast. I then had a chance to clean the house before going off to school, so now we can return to a nice clean house. Another person I am starting to understand better through my current lifestyle is my dad. He was always up really early in the morning and would profess that it was due to having so much to do... but now I know the truth. Just as I am, el padre happens to be a morning person who really enjoys the early hours when the earth seems more tranquil for some reason. Ha! Now I know! I am really excited that the rents are coming soon. I got the tickets yesterday and it looks like we are definately off the beaten track. Now we just have to check out all the hardships and see what comes of it. It will be an adventure to remember, that is for sure!
