Oh my God, I got an A in History

Un-freakin'-believable. I couldn't have done that well on the final. This teacher is GENEROUS.

I'm floored.

Heh! Thank you all.

I really didn't expect this. I would have been satisfied with a C, happy with a B. I was pretty sure I did well on the multiple choice part but I blew 2 of the 3 essays. I know I did.

I think he appreciates and rewards class participation. There were about four of us who always interacted with him. Everyone else sat stone silent. I really liked this teacher, but he was tough. He'd cover a LOT of ground and he talked pretty fast and nonstop. I was always amazed at how many pages I filled with notes each class session. Every time we took a test there would always be a clump of us standing around at break time all shaking our heads at each other. We were always certain we had screwed it up. This was the hardest class I've taken so far. I was just happy to have it over with. The A is a huge bonus.

ingen- what makes the car go.

You mean the dendrites in my brain have their OWN brains? That's fractalrific!
