Gold Star

Yes, I've given myself a gold star for my grades lol. We got out Lit midterms back today, which was 40 multiple guess/fill in the blanks and an essay, I got a 97 on it! Full credit on the essay and only two wrong on the first part! :-D We also have 10 point quizzes every few days, I've gotten mostly 10s and a couple of 9s on those so far. I'm definately happy with that class! My American lit class is going just as well, we haven't had an major tests yet, but I've been doing really well on quizzes, nothing below a 97. Stagecraft is also going well. We've only had one test so far and i got a 98 on it, only one question wrong. We have another test on hand tools today, so that shouldn't be a problem :-P. Fencing, well I have no idea. I've done the assignments, I'm pretty sure i'm improving, and I actually show up for class, unlike about 2/3 of the class. We just won't go into math though...I was a little too cocky going into the first test and didn't study since it's math for morons, as a result I didn't do that well. The next test should be a lot better though, I actually know how to add and subtract positive and negative numbers, follow order of operations, and solve linear equations. Yes, these are the sorts of things we are "learning" (rather reviewing from 9th grade). It's pathetic really because people still ask the dumbest questions and I want to shoot myself in that class. The fact that it's at 9am MWF doesn't help either.

Overall I am EXTREMELY happy with life right now. Everything is going really well lately. The show opens tomorrow, so tonight will be the last rehearsal, hopefully everything goes perfectly! It should though, everyone working on the show is great. I can'tw ait until Saturday either! Some of the fam is coming up to see the show, it'll be our closing so it'll probably be one of the best nights to see the show. It also means that the cast party is that night...I'm so excited!
And then in a couple weeks I get to go see Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley and gamble a little ;-) Ahhh life is great :-D

I have a couple of papers to write this week, which will be put off until the day before they're due, but that's about the only downer I can think of right now. Gotta get in some last minute studying of the hand tools...just in case I forgot anything. Wish me luck!!
