Slugged it out in Spanish

Finals are over and I am a relieved man! My mood has totally changed from 24 hours ago. Yesterday after taking the Spanish Objective Final, my grade dropped to a 89.3%. 0.2% and 2 points from an A. I was pissed and angry at myself for not doing the 10 point extra credit offered back in November. I thought about going to talk to Fidel about my grade today, but decided not to. When I got home, checked edline, and I literally jumped up and screamed, as 2 points had been added onto my objective final, thus raising my grade to a 89.5%. A- baby! Fidel is the nicest teacher ever. There are two explanations for this two points added. It could be that period 3 did worse on final today and thus our curve increased or that she saw my grade was that close and gave it to me. I cut it way too close this semester in Spanish and it almost cost me. Either way, an A's and A and I'll take it. Good fortune and luck struck me. Thank goodness for curves. This goes back to the notion that "every point counts." I got 44/45 on notebook check as Fidel didn't see my Honduras notes, but once I showed it to her, she changed it to a 45/45. Second semester, I will be sure to take advantage of the extra credits. Now I await my grades in AP Chemistry and AP Calculus BC. So far, I have all A's in my other classes....till then, I'll enjoy this 3-day weekend where I don't have to worry about anything...
