Update...
I had the meeting with my professor yesterday. Here's a recap:
I walked in thinking he would want to hear my case and I would give him all the little prepared things I had in mind. It didn't exactly happen that way. At first we just chatted about random things, and then he handed me my final to look at the comments and whatnot. He said that he changed that grade from a 90 to a 91, changed my participation grade from a 95 to a 96, and that gives me an A. He then said that he assessed my contribution to the class in general and thought I deserved an A. Then, as if that wasn't enough, he told me that he already went in and changed my grade and since grades weren't even due until 7pm yesterday I shouldn't have any problems and it already went through and was changed.
I didn't have to really say anything other than thank you! At first I almost sat there a little dumbfounded that I didn't have to plead my case or try to convince him or anything! He also said that when I start making up lesson plans and whatnot for teaching, that if I needed help or ides I was welcome to email him. Dude. What an awesome guy! So, I got the 4.0 for this semester, a 3.7 overall and graduated Magna Cum Laude. Yesssssss.
Though, good news doesn't always come without some bad. The people I was going to live with in Valdosta told me they found someone else to move in now. So, I have no place to live. But at least I have until August to figure that out. Also, I still don't have a job and was rejected from the camp counselor job I wanted. I also applied at Cups, so hopefully that'll work out. I need money and I'm bored out of my mind! I'm also getting allergy shots now (for pollen, not food, haha) and that's going to be a bundle of fun 3x a week all summer. So that's my life at the moment: graduated, bored, without job, no home in Aug. Awesome.
