I don't get it...

So if you are going to make the commitment to go to school and pay for the classes and textbooks and go to the (some) classes... why would you not show up for the tri-terms?? There is a girl in my Econ class that did not show up to the first tri-term and last night was the second she was a no show for that as well. I texted her and asked her where she was... she said her brothers kids were sick. I'm like so?? And that means you miss your second tri-term in a row?? I don't get it. Either way. I took it. I thought I did good on the first one and I did NOT. So saying I did good on this one would be very premature. We will find out next Wednesday. I'm crossing my fingers for that dang B!!!
