Crazy English Major

So it turned out that my American Literature class was pretty great, I learned a lot, and enjoyed the discussions. It was also a good learning experience as far as papers go. I was pretty proud of what I accomplished. The only problem is that when I write papers...it's messy. I like to see everything at once when I write my rough draft, which means my desk looks like this on a good day:

The book that I wrote my paper on, Hope Leslie, was actually very good. If you like historical fiction, it is definitely a keeper.

My secret essay writing code...that I can sometimes read

This last year has been full of little miracles. I made it through all my classes and enjoyed them most of the time. I even got a B in Economics, which turned out to be a pretty cutthroat class. Now I am working on my application to the English Education program. Sometimes I wonder if it is right, but I look at all the classes I get to take and get excited every time. 

Some miracles this year:

-I got 63 on my practice economics final after studying for days, I got an 81 on the real final the next day.

-I met some really great girls and have some good friends at college now.

-I learned how to balance living all my myself

-I went to the temple one morning and the class after there was an assignment due that I didn't know about, but the teacher had decided to delay the due date. Coincidence? I think not.

-My home teachers gave me a blessing and all my fears dissappeared in seconds when I was having a really hard day.

-The people in my home ward are always willing to bring up the things that I have forgotten at home.

-I earned full tuition for the next year, which takes a huge load off of my shoulders.

-There are so many more little blessings that I can't even begin to list them. I feel very loved.
