MORE POINTS!!!

My classes are going well. I corrected my Spanish composition and received a couple more points. I wasn't going to do it at first because I thought "well, two more points isn't going to help my grade." WRONG! When I got my paper back and calculated my grade I now have a B instead of a C! I'm really excited! We have our first exam on Monday. I'm nervous but I think if I at least knew what the format was going to be, I wouldn't be as nervous about it. I've been making flash cards and doing extra Quia exercises to refresh my memory on concepts from the past so I can do well on this test.
In my Communication Law and Theory class, we have to turn in our final project topics today. I'm doing mine on a First Amendment law that made parents sign permission slips stating that their child/children could check out Harry Potter books from the school library. I really liked this case and I'm a Harry Potter fan so I thought that was a great match. My other classes consist of writing, writing, taking photographs, writing and more writing. And I love it! I went to the state fair yesterday to do my story for Beat Reporting. I think I have some good options to choose from. I'm done with speeches for a while in my Speaking for Business class. I like to get mine out of the way first that way I can spend more time on other classes! My first photojournalism assignment is due next Wednesday and I'm excited to get feedback on my pictures. My Editing for Print class is a bit harder than I expected but I'm learning a lot and I know these concepts will be useful to me in the future so I'm not complaining.
