UNV 103 GAME OVER

Well, I finished my first official college class on Sunday April 3rd.
This class taught me how to work the classroom web sight, turn in assignments, how to manage my home and school work, how to communicate more effectively through emails, forms, etc.  It was a fun and easy class to start off with.  I know that all of my classes will not be as easy as this one was, since this was the introduction class to how the school site works and getting you used to an online classroom. 
I started my new class on Monday April 4th.  Yes, I had to go to school and do homework on my birthday and as a mother.  I thought that once I had kids and was married I would no longer be having to worry about my own homework on my birthday but that's what comes with being an online student and mom and adult all at the same time.
My new class is called CWV 101 or Christian Worldview.  I am sure I will have times that I struggle through this class because of the nature of the class.  I am sure there will be many times that I will have to bite my tongue and not let my emotions get the better of me.  At least with this class being on line I will be able to think about how I feel and what I want to say back should the need arise rather than popping off and saying something that I will later regret and have to apologize for.
I have set a very high goal for myself to graduate at the end of four years, in 2015, with a 4.0, I know that this is a crazy goal to set for myself since I have not been in school for a while and the fact that I have a family and house to take care of on top of doing all of my school work.
So, far (after only one, WAY easy class) I am achieving this goal.  I came out with an A and my percentage was 98.55%.  This was a little lower than I wanted it to be but I am proud to say I got an A and A's are what get you a 4.0 not A- or B's but solid A's and 98.55% could be and A+ to some people.
I am glad that I made it through with a grade that I really wanted and that I worked hard to get that grade.  I WILL be continuing to work hard to get solid A's in the rest of my classes.
