Today was amazing, and I only had a half day due to Shanna checking me out after fourth period. (That might have been what made it so amazing.) I am still sick, yes, but it definitely not as bad as it has been.
Have you ever felt so nauseous that there's not a thing big enough for you to stick in your mouth to stop you from vomiting everywhere? That is how I felt all morning because I knew Rose and I had to present our economics project. It really didn't help that my cold was keeping me from speaking at an audible volume to most humans.
It was rough. But we at least lasted 4 minutes and 50 seconds, courtesy of Partello. There has not really been another time this year that I could truly say I love that man. Deep down, I know that he is not a bad person. His class was just a very frustrating semester for me, and when he's not in complete teacher mode he is actually a lot of fun to be around. I am just thankful that he knew Rose and I were nervous and asked us at least four questions while we were up there to keep our time from being too short.
Here is the best part! We got a 75 on the project, which I don't mind because it's passing and because that is actually really good considering the minimum time was 10 minutes. But... On the portfolio for our business that Rose spent the whole semester dreading and then spent 9 non-stop hours working at her house for... We got 920 out of 1000 points. I was so thrilled! We got a 92! That's an A. That's better than I think just about anyone else in our class so far. He told us ours was one of the best portfolios he has seen so far this year and wants us to do the few things we are missing and turn that into him so he can show off our portfolio to others later.
It was definitely worth all the frustration to be able to come out of it with that.
I feel more accomplished with just that portfolio than I have with anything else this year.
I might take a nap and then Shanna and I are going to the store because I have to buy a present for Staci, and then she is taking me to church for the youth birthday party.
