I had a womens study class that I took in the fall of '11 and failed, that I needed to take again in order to graduate on time. I was rely nervouse about taking it again. I didn't want to fail again. So this time I read the required readings more in depth, and participated in class more, and tried a Shit-Ton harder on the essays and tests. When I went in for the "final paper conference" my teacher and I thought I would get no higher then a D, but I didn't want to take this class again because of the "3-peat" rule. So I tried even harder o. The final paper and quiz and received a C!!! No one in the world would care if it is a 79 or a 70. A C is a C. :) I felt accomplished!
In other news because of the car crash that happened, I missed a test in my online class and my teacher wouldn't let me make it up. All my friends told me to go to the head of the department (well, it's the teacher that is teaching my online class.... So im screwed there). But she had no sympathy, and told my try harder on the 4th test. I'd had to make a 115/100 in order to get a D, because we only have 4 grades in the class (being the 4 tests) lame. So now in going to fail this class just meaning I'm going to need to take it in the fall And pass everything in order to graduate.
So close, so Many obstacles!
