I feel smarter....

So, you might remember a month or so ago, I was belly-aching about having to go back to school to get some hours to renew my (currently expired) teaching certificate! Thankfully, the classes are over and life is back to normal. Although, I do still need to get 1 1/2 more hours before I can renew. UGH! Hopefully I can find a one day or a weekend class for that!

Anyways, the second of the two classes I took was actually a wonderful class! It was a writing class and I had chosen to do the nonfiction/memoir section. So, for the whole week, I got to write about me! No research, no scouring the net looking for sources, no harping over lesson plans (that I most likely won't use!).... just stories about me! How easy is that?!

SOOOOOO.... yesterday, I got an email from the teacher for that class.... telling me I got an A!!!!! WOO!! I love A's! I still need to submit two of the pieces of writing to a magazine to complete the class requirements. Wish me luck on that! One of them, I shared in my blog!

Now.... I still haven't gotten the grade for the class from hell that I took first. It was the one where I had to write a ten day thematic unit. I totally procrastinated, complained, ignored it, complained some more, and finally on the due date deadline, it was done. I think expecting an A from that class might be pushing it a bit.
