a pretty great christmas present

...an A in my Biology class!

I took the final Tuesday night and did not do well at all. The first multiple choice test I got a 73%, the second I got an 85% making my average 79% at that point. Then I took the essays and felt completely overwhelmed, like I didn't study the right stuff. None of the stuff that I was completely confident and comfortable with was on the test. When I left the testing center I was shaking. I felt like I was going to puke all night long. I even dreamed of this stupid final.

Yesterday morning at 10 I got the results: 230 points out of 240 for the essay!! My bluffs worked, evidently!

I feel so much better. Thank heavens my professor graded my test yesterday and didn't make me wait until tomorrow to know. That's the best Christmas present ever. ;)

Merry Christmas to you all! I hope it's a wonderful time for you and your family!
