Guess who got an A on her first academic paper in over 14 years???

Wednesday night. Yes, that's right, after being subjugated to the needs of corporate writing and the occasional bout of creative writing, it turns out that my academic writing skills are not completely gone. Ha! I got 4.85 out of a possible 5 (yes, it's only worth 5% of my grade - so sue me for being excited) and there are only three very small marks on my paper. This after the teacher warned us that he was ruthless and that we shouldn't take all of the purple markings (he doesn't like red pen) personally because our first paper would be littered with them. Double ha!

Yes, I'm fat. Yes, I'm a procrastinator. And yes, I can still write a pretty kick-a@@ paper!
