Update
Here is an email I just sent out to close friends. BTW, I'd like to send a special shout-out to Rob, who randomly texted me this morning and immediately called me when he found out I had reached the end of my rope...So I'm not big on mass emails, as most of you know, but I think it's time to update ( Read more... ) -

Toot, toot!
I just needed to toot my own horn... Anyhow, I got an A on my Philanthropy presentation (25% of my grade), and 2 A-s on 2 case studies (16.67% of my grade).
