Sharing Jesus

@ 07:25 PM (18 months, 26 days ago)

I had a great day today, I turned in the blasted paper, the one that didn't get completed, told the professor that if I got ten points out of a hundred, I'd be satisfied. That is the worst paper I have ever done. Had a rough time with it too, but it's not in my hands, so that's ok. I'm done with the papers. My Native American paper got a B, so I'm pretty excited about that. I revised it with the professor's help, like three times. It was good to just get through it all that's for sure! Trying to find a pair of sandals I can wear this summer. Got a pair of croc-like shoes, and they will be shower slides for when I go to the dorm next semester. LAST ONE!!!

Shakespeare final isn't looking good

@ 07:35 AM (18 months, 26 days ago)
Well, I was supposed to write a fifteen page paper on some aspect of Shakespeare, and I only ogt five pages on it completed. I've resigned myself that I could not get thisdone, and I'm ok with that. I know it will sink my grade, and I'm ok with that too. I have gotten F's before, most of my life, in fact. I'm only getting one F this time, and It doesn't reflect on my abilities at all, just on that one aspect of the class, as I have been getting C's up to this point. Graduate school is nowhere in my horizon. I don't wnat any part of that. People who are more verbose need to go to grad school. I come away from this course knowing what my abilities are, what my strengths and weaknesses are, and that's ok with me. If anything, I'll just have to add a class next semester, which stinks, but it is something I'll have to do. I don't even ask for a mercy grade in this case, I'll take what I earn. I'm doing better in school here at the university than I have ever done in my entire life! Thatsays something! I grew up getting D's and F's throughout school. This is still a step up!
