I aced it.

I aced my ACC1145 exam.  I was pleasantly surprise when I seen the grade of 98%.  That's an A.  I was so worried that I would have to drop this grade and have an A- to fall back on.  The only error I made was one that I missed because I was so focused on all of the other material.  I feel like I did good, but also I feel like I just managed to scrape by.

I said that I put little effort into the class and I still feel that way.  All the studying I did was an hour and a half before the exam.  It was material that I had done for the assignment that was handed in the week of mid-terms, but I usually don't hold on to the accounting procedures I learn.  I'm more interested in web-design.

I handed in a research paper today for ENG1111.  Four drafts including the final, with three sources.  I'm one of the few who was prepared to hand in the assignment today.  I feel a bit robbed in that class because I had gotten an A-, yet I'm one of the only people who get to class on time, hand in my work on time, and do my best to follow the standards and requirements of the assignments.  Most of the other students should be getting C's and D's, as well as a few F's in there to motivate some of the slouches.  Not being the professor, I'll just leave my rant for here.  Still, my point is that I don't even benefit from other people's shoddy performances making mine appear better.
