An Early Christmas Gift.

Dec 22, 2005 18:18

Today, I recieved a letter from Macquarie University, thinking it was a friendly (or not) reminder to fix up the $49.00 in library fees I have outstanding. Upon taking a closer look at the envelope, however, I noticed that the letter was from the Division of Society, Culture, Media and Philosophy. This made me all the more curious. It was a letter congratulating me on my achievements in a Cultural Studies course I completed in semester one. One of the sections read, "the mark you achieved in CUL100: Text, Image, Culture was one of the top three marks for the unit." It was just something nice that brightened up my day. I don't usually get hung up on marks, but it was nice knowing that the mark I got was, out of the three-hundred or so people that did the course, one of the best. I remember being surprised back in July when I viewed my semester one results, thinking that the mark I got for Cultural Studies was unusually high, but I had no idea I did that well! For someone with particularly low self-esteem, this type of warm compliment is nice to hear.
