4 Weeks down

I have a little bit of catching up to do, but I wanted to make a brief comment about my school status. I am four weeks into the class, and actually have started enjoying the work. I am really getting into building this Business Plan that will be my final project. As of today I only have three weeks left and that is exciting. I still have a high "A". I was faced with the question this week of whether or not I wanted to settle for a "B" and I chose not to. I went on a short trip this past weekend, which I will blog about later, and did not have access to the Internet. So, that meant that my assignment was late. I looked at my grade as it would stand if I didn't turn in my assignment, and it was an 89. Right on the border of an "A". There is a chance that I could still make the "A" without the assignment, but worst case, I would settle for a "B". When it came down to it, I couldn't make myself settle.

I was afraid that would happen!!! All my life I have been an overachiever and have never allowed myself to settle for mediocrity. Some of you might say that a "B" is not Mediocre, but for me it would be. I couldn't bring myself to just walking away from the "A". Even if I can't get a 4.0, I can still have all "A"s.

So, here I am working on getting my "A". I am getting excited about my work, just in time to finish it. I guess that is the best time to be excited. Three weeks and Seven assignments left, I am pushing on. My "A" is in site with 4 weeks down.
