w"A"y to go

second class finished up last week and I finallyh got my grade. Even though my teacher was not the most helpful and at times I felt like I was going to get a bad grade on assignments off of his comments I ended up getting very good grades on everything with the lowest grade being an 87% on an Essay.  After all the hard work being sick for about a total of two weeks during the class.  Shuffeling kids back and forth from here and there, taking a trip to grandma's house a few times, having family in town, two birthday parties at my house for two of my kids, I managed to get a 95.5% giving me a solid "A" in what will probably be the hardest class I will take over the next four years.
Now on to tackle the next class.  This on should be a breeze "Communication and Information Literacy."  I totally get why I have to take it to be a teacher but I know it is going to be boaring and I am going to want to be done with it quickly.  My last teacher had a PhD which at times made him sound condicending and rude but at the same time he was a good instructor and did just sit back and let me and another class mate battle things out at times.  After all it was a religious class we are all going to have differences in opinions and worldviews.
One thing I will be concentrating on in this class though is not letting my teachers notes, whether good or bad, not get to me.  I am confident, I do know what I need to do in the class to get the grade that I not only want but the grade that I need in order to keep my goals.

I was so excited to call my dad and tell him about my grade in this last class and that I currently have a 4.0 and got an "A" in a difficult class.  The exciting part was to hear him tell me that he is proud of me and that he knows I can do this and that I can and will do well in my schooling and that he totally 100% has my back and is supporting me and rooting me on all the way.
That was huge to me and I hope my dad knows what that ment to me.  Thanks Dad!!

Now, on to Com. and Info. Lit
