First Paper Back....

Everyone was on the edge of their seats, ready to vomit from nervousness, when he started handing out the graded papers. And as he gave them back, he made comments out loud! As in, "Terrible intro but all right after that, [insert name here]" and "you could've done better" and "just all right." Then he got to me, and I was practically ready to faint, and he made a little smirk and said "Quite a good one here."

I got an A.

All he'd written on it were a bunch of check marks, "good" and "well put" in a couple of places, and at the very end, near the grade mark, "This is a lively and sophisticated paper - well argued and well expressed."

SUCCESS.

  2. Am I surprised? Not even a little bit. When you have a brilliant daughter, her going to Oxford and kicking ass doesn't surprise her dad. Good job.
