Got my grades for my final semester and straight As, though it's three A- and an A. But dude, I got an A- in Theory of International Relations. I hadn't gotten better than a B+ on any of the papers I wrote this semester, so I thought I'd get a B or a B+ in the class, but my participation grade was great and then I got a 95% on my final paper. This would be an 18-page paper that I wrote in a day and a half, and I kicked so much ass on it that it kicked me over into the A- range. Considering how hard a grader my professor had been all semester, I am very proud of that.
So...now I'm trying to find something to do in between now and the new school year. Hopefully a job, but also hopefully a job that makes use of my shiny new BA. *snorts* Good luck to me. I'm trying for some online writing tutor positions, but we'll see how that goes.
Tomorrow, and actually in just over twelve hours, is my interview with an alumnus from Georgetown. I am nervous because I've never really had such an important interview before, but my parents helped out with questions I am most likely to be asked, and advised me to make notes of my talking points. It helps that it's a phone interview, so I can have all my notes on hand. I am still nervous, though. I do tend to be an articulate speaker, which is why I agreed to this interview even though it was optional. But still. Important. I am nervous. I really want to get into Georgetown!
Time to go make notes now.
