    Hooray for good grades...:-D *Update, two more good grades!*

    Hey all,

    I got a perfect (well near perfect, I missed points because I forgot to number the pages ) score on an essay I wrote for a class recently. I posted it up on my blog because I am really proud of it. I haven't done academic writing in YEARS so getting this A was a real boost to my confidence.

    it is here if anyone wants to read it. (Warning: it's kind of dry, lol)

    Just had to share my joy with you guys!

    Oh and I should get an A in this class too...which is awesome because the professor is notorious for being really picky.

    That's great! One of the great peeves in the business world is folks coming out of college who cannot write well.

    I found that to be quite the interesting read! It was very good, I see why you got an A. You brought up ALOT of good points to. So I'm just curious, are you going for the mechanic field still? Just wondering!

    Thanks for educating some people on video games, I am tired of adults who claim I don't have a "grasp" on the difference between reality and fantasy and I'm going to go psycho any minute because I play violent video games. Yeah, I'm gonna take the wand from my Harry Potter games and 'avada kadabra' everyone.

    Thank you, everyone!

    As for my future college plans, I'm now undecided again . I'm still thinking about going into something technical, but I'm noticing that I really enjoy dealing with media production (the set up end of things, lighting, sound etc). I may try to get a job with or volunteer for a theater company just to get some real world experience. I may also look at internships with the news stations or with the public access station.

    I got my other two papers back and got As on them both! I posted them on my blog, the link is in my signature.

    Feel free to read and comment. I am really interested in comments on the Depression paper. Also, if there are any venues you think that sort of thing would be good for, I'd like to know.

    Thanks for reading!
