egoooooo!!
Okay, so today was just...an ego boost and it makes me so excited.
I had a paper due on Friday for my Persuasion class. Although we were told not to start it the night before, I did. Cause obviously I am a) a stickler for punishment b) motivated only through deadlines and c) confident in the fact that I can put together a decent paper in a pressured amount of time. I spent 4 hours on it.
So we had a test today in that class and I'm all freaking out cause seriously, test! I kicked butt on the essay portions of the test but the multiple choice were iffy (damn "all of the above" or "only a & b" answers!). I walked up to hand in my test and my teacher picks up my paper and waves me over to the side. I'm all "ohhhhh...crap." Cause seriously? I best my ass that she was going to say something regarding the fact that it was sloppily put together. She says quietly "You're impressing the hell out of me. Keep it up." I flip to the back and I got a 95 on the paper.
::EGO BOOST THROUGH THE ROOF::
Now I can pretend all that I want that I don't care about grades and blahblahblah but I totally do. This was the only Comm teacher I had this year who I hadn't had previous experience with. I had Interpersonal with Dainton and Aylor teaches me Comm Theory and Rhetoric before Persuasion so I only had this 5/6 week block with her. She's also my advisor and when I went to meet her earlier she was shocked to find out that I was a sophomore. I mean, it is a 300 level class but it's not impossible work at all and I'd have to guess that I'm definitely a minority as a non-junior/non senior. To know that I'm impressing her? Oh lord. Fantastic. Love it.
I was on a happy high the entire day!
