Independence Day..or not....

So July 4th was Independence Day, and our teacher announced that in light of the national holiday, we would not have homework on Wednesday night. Well, that sounded really good and we all cheered in Chinese, but it actually did not work out that way. So instead of the writing an essay on Wed. night, we had to do it Tues. night, and of course, none of us wrote an essay on Tues. night and waited until Wed. night to write it. So there goes our holiday relaxation time. And even though we did not have homework, we still had a quiz the next day, which means we still had to preview the chapters and memorize all the vocabularies - what a bummer!
