Insert nervous heart palpitations. Did I think I failed? No. However, I am not one to assume when it comes to my grades. Especially not after the curveball that was thrown at me two terms ago. A C after 100% on a midterm, final and two essays? How does THAT happen? It did and I didn't have the
I certainly have kept grad school in mind this last phase of my undergrad career because I know that there is a great possibility that I will want to get into a decent school in a couple of years. So I suppose that's where the nervousness was coming from. That's also where my pissed off-ness comes for the stupid C that I have!!! The only positive aspect of that is that was an elective and not a core class, whatever!
Anywho, my fingers were flying on my phone's keyboard trying to log into the secure WebAdvisor for my school. Such a pain on a phone, right? Much to my happiness, I logged in to find two As for this term. Not one, but TWO! That gives me a grand total of twelve As, one B and one C for the last year and a half of my school. Not too shabby, right? RIGHT!!!!
Insert pure happiness and satisfaction here. Thank GOD! I now can celebrate. And let me tell you, last night? We did. HA! This morning, dry toast and honeycrisp apples have been my BFFs!
By the way, I feel like I'm gloating about this... Please know that I am not. I am not very great at very many things. But school, I take pride in. I am good at it and I love it. Well, we have a love/hate relationship... you know how that goes. HA! But, usually I am pretty hard on myself and don't let myself brag about much. So, excuse this brag post and please don't think I am acting like I'm hot stuff! HA!
I hope everyone rang in the New Year safely (probably from your pillows, right?) We have had gorgeous weather in the PNW this week and Brandon and I are about to take a long drive into the country to visit his grandparents that have a farm. Brandon plans on shooting his new (old it was Grandpa's) shotgun and I plan on enjoying the crisp air and gorgeous view of Mt. Rainier out there. :) Sounds like a fine day, right? Enjoy your Sunday everyone! I will be back tomorrow with this week's menu and a recap of how our menu this week went!

CONGRATS GIRLFRIEND!!!!!! I am so incredibly proud, and happy for you. Gloat away my dear...you have definitely earned it!! If we weren't thousands of miles away, I would take you out to celebrate. So maybe we can just drink wine and Skype instead?
Great job! I wish I enjoyed school half as much as you. That's awesome!
I would go back and talk to that dean about that C! If he/she takes a look at your other grades they'll have no choice but to see how stupid that grade was! Shame on them!
Glad you had a great celebration and I hope you had fun on the farm!
Awesome job! Nothing wrong with 'crowing' about something! And hey...you got done!!!
