cry into your coffee in the morning while you wonder what god is directing your life
expand your mind
like an engineer can tell the difference between the passive periphrastic and a gerundive

the difficulty of a midterm should be the inverse of how much content it covers
why am I in the latin class going the fastest?
why can't humanities classes curve tests too?
