Update Time

Well the final grades are in for the semester. Let me start with a little back story before I give out my grade.

So we had a research paper that was due in November. She wanted 8-10 pages. But knowing me, I like to write a lot and my topic was something I could get way more than that. I was writing about Childhood Obesity and Technology. Ok.. so moving on.. I wrote 13 pages. I didn't think it was going to be that big of a deal. Well she handed back our papers on Monday. She marked me down a full letter grade because I wrote too much. I didn't follow her guidelines so she had to mark my down. Ok I understand marking me down a little bit not a full better grade. And because the paper was worth almost half of our final grade it brought me down a full letter grade in class. I was pissed.

Anyways... can't change it now. I ended up going from a B to a C in her class and ended up with a C+ in her class for semester. Not the grade I should of gotten but I still passed and the grade is accepted by UC Merced. Oh well. Moving on to next semester. I have one more English class left to take and then I am done forever with English classes at the College level.


Christmas is literally right around the corner. Still not done with Christmas shopping but a good portion of it. Most of the stuff we ordered should be delivered today. Then I can spend the next few hours wrapping because we know it's my favorite thing to do. I am not fancy with it, I just like the fact that it calms me down when I am stressed out.
