Seventy-Seven is Sweet

Today, something amazing happened in Spanish class. We were studying for our big chapter test tomorrow by playing a game of concentration. We would select two of the cards in Spanish numbers. Then we would have to use one of the words we chose in a sentence. At the very end of class, my sister choice 77. Now, this isn't that special of a number, but it ended up being magical.

The word was Por Que, or why in English. Her sentence in Spanish, Por que hay el examen manana? Clever, very clever. It basically says, why is there a test tomorrow? A very clever question, but sincere. After thinking about it, and discussing it with the class, our teacher moved the test to Monday. Sweet! I now have the entire weekend to study. Moral of the story, don't be afraid to ask questions, especially in Spanish. Also, number 77 is the best number in the world.
