and the final tally is...

you may already know how 'optimistic' i am about my statistics grade.

i finally saw it today.

let it be on the record that i had expected a C. at most.

so you can imagine my pleasant surprise to find that i scored a B.

and so, the final tally of term 1 grades is as follows:

creative thinking: A+
business, government and society: A
political science: A-
statistics: B
analytical skills: B-
economics: B-

pretty much evened everything out huh?

not too bad for ms "back-at-school-after-six-years". =)

on a sad note, dan fogelberg has passed away, losing a battle to prostate cancer.

the hubby and i love his song "longer".

our condolences to mrs fogelberg.

and here's to a great singer-songwriter.

longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
higher than any bird every flew
longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
i've been in love with you.

stronger than any mountain cathedral
truer than any tree ever grew
deeper than any forest primeval
i am in love with you.

i'll bring fires in the winters
you'll send showers in the springs
we'll fly through the falls and summers
with love on our wings.

through the years as the fire starts to mellow
burning lines in the book of our lives
through the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow
i'll be in love with you.

i am in love with you.
