6 30 am, I hit the shake awake for the last time and force myself out of bed for the dumbass exams. Imagine to my surprise to walk into the kitchen (fyi you hafta go thru my kitchen to get to my room) so I walk out and theres the hearie roomate just about nakked in a pair of boxers. *grumbles* I as quickly as I could darted to the bathroom to avoid permenant eye damage.

When I arrived to the platform for the 1 train going downtown, there was of course the local homeless group on the wooden row seat area. 3 of them, sorta sleeping, mouth agape. I figure whom am I to say boo to that? But as I passed this one particular pillar near the homeless gang, this one homeless man was swaying and leaning against the pillar. (I didnt see him because he was hidden from my view) It appeared his pants were down to his ankles. Again I quickly turned away and walk back to the other area. But not before seeing a glimpse of his thigh with what looked like smeared blood? I don't wanna know. I just wanted to get to the east side for the teaching exams.

Took the ASL content test first in the morning. The same ASL exam as last year. The video tape they use for the 1st section SUCKs. The questions that you answer to the video are no way feasible based on what is signed. Really lame people, I know its a new test, first of its kind but come on! I was done by 10 30am. Now what?
All I wanna do it crawl back to bed. Unfortunately I had one more exam at 1pm. So i went to China Town and schmyed around there. I was trying to find a good little chinese food joint for lunch but forget that on Canal St. Its all purses, jewerly, perfumes, some electronics, hats, belts, scarves, tee shirts. I walked and walked looking for a place to eat. What's up with that? I live in Washington Heights so there's always at least one Domican Republic or Latino food joint every 2 blocks or so. It was weird, kinda like the twilight zone...

The afternoon test was kinda boring. I did not enjoy the essay. Not because I don't like essays, I do. It was the question they wanted me to answer. /Goals of Excellence in Curriculum/ where the issues that I had to address was about teachers working to design and implement a curriculum. Why would that be beneficial? What strageties would I do to make it happen? Use of reasoning and theories to support my argument so I did. I used a lot of the jargon I've learned in the past year and a half at TC.

Now I await for Szymanski's arrival. Where we shall feast on National Hebrew hot dogs among other things. Im kinda cantonic due to the lack of sleep. I am glad I cancelled yesterday, I had a hard enough time staying awake this morning and afternoon. Feeling very legathric (did I spell that right?)
