Believe It Or Not...

"I'm walking on air, I never thought I could feel this free. Flying away on a wing and a prayer, who could it be? Believe it or not it's just me."

Oops, sorry, got a little side-tracked on my way to making the announcement of the good news I got today.

Here Ye Here Ye.

If you have been reading my blog for a few weeks you know that I got sick about 3 weeks ago and missed all of my classes one Thursday because of a 102 fever. You also know that I had a term paper due that day that I was fretting over something awful. I got up that morning, sick as a dog, and wrote my paper and emailed it to my instructor.

Well, today when I got to class, she announced that our first order of business was for her to pass back all of our papers that she had been collecting for the past 10 weeks and hadn't passed back hardly anything. She also prefaced the passing back of papers with a "two of you do not have grades on your term papers, and if that is the case you need to come see me either during break or after class." This announcement made everyone nervous and you could see it as we walked to the front of the class to pick up our papers that we didn't want to see the grades on our papers.

I got mine and walked back to my desk. There was nothing on my cover page, so I went to page two, there were only two red marks, so I flipped to page 3, nothing, page 4, nothing, page 5 she said "great analogy to a real day in a restaurant." I made it to the last page and there was a big paragraph at the bottom of the page. My heart sunk, I didn't think that was a good sign. Until I read it.

"I enjoyed reading your paper. You did an excellent job summarizing the book that you read and brought the book to life with stories of your experiences in the hospitality industry. Good luck in your endeavors." and then the grade.

10 out of a possible 10!!!!!!!

AND! I was one of only three people in the entire class who remembered about the extra credit assignment she gave us last week... so...

Needless to say... "I'm walking on air, I never thought I could feel this free".... oops, I did it again.

10 bonus points to the first person who correctly identifies the song that is stuck in my head.
