test

today we got our group essay. my group got a 77% because our pictures didn't print on the paper even though they were there. once we fixed this it brought our grade up 2%, this amount brought my grade from a C to a B. now I'm not going to get in trouble for having a C. we found out we are having a test on Friday along with 2 tests in other classes.
