Well, for those of you who followed the other thread in which I had a very long post discussing the death of a mentor and my roller coaster of a semester, well I have my gen chem II grade for the semester:
SOLID A!!! I’m am so happy. I was so concerned about this grade because I had 2 B+ exams and just an “off” semester in this class. I did better toward semester end, but I was really unsure if I could pull off an A. I was anxious to say the least, but gosh darn it, I did it! I did get the solid A I expected in Genetics. Just waiting on my Calculus grade and I think the worst I can do in that class is an A- so really I’m just over the moon right now. I am almost crying with joy!
I have a ceremony tonight at my school, too. Some scholarships are being awarded and I am receiving an $8,000 scholarship to boot! I will be smiling very wide tonight for so many reasons. I feel so grateful to have the opportunity to pursue my educational dreams and so happy to know that hard work really does pay off. Not just in scholarship money, though it is very very nice, but in a great sense of accomplishment, too. I’m so excited for the future, but I am enjoying the journey, too.
Wonderful news!!! Enjoy your success!! You deserve it!!!
WoW!!! Thats fantastic news, and after all that you’ve been through it is very very impressive to hear.
My hats off to you, way to go!!!
Woohoo!! Nicely done.
Well done.
Thanks all! And because I’m feeling a little obsessive, I have been checking for my Calculus grade every 30 minutes. lol. It was posted. Another solid A! Woohoo. I feel so good! Having another 4.0 semester along with everything else I’ve been up to is a great feeling. Confidence is thoroughly boosted now!
Congrats Shannon!!!
