School Semester Done

Today was another good day. I had two finals for my classes this semester, and I did really well on them. I got an 80 on my Speech 101 final, and I knew almost all the answers to the questions on my Film Appreciation final. Now, the reason I got a "B" was because I over-interpreted the questions and answered them wrong on the speech exam. However, I asked the professor what my grade for this class would be, and he told me I would probably get an "A" for that class. That makes me exceedingly happy.

There were two questions that left me clueless on the Film Appreciation exam. I think it was their wording that confused me. For lack of a better phrase, I was lost in the sauce on those questions, but I attempted to answer them as best as I could. The great news is that I got 50/50 points on my final essay that was assigned for the film class. The class instructor, Joi Hoffsommer, said that my essay was "easy to read" since I actually used proper grammar, syntax, and used peer-reviewed research to back up my thesis. She told me that my essay was a joy to read...unlike some other essays she read from my class.

I feel like I actually accomplished something for once in my life. This is not a hollow victory. Now I only have one more semester at Parkland College. Then I'll be done.

I feel good.
