Happy Anniversary!

First, Happy Anniversary to my husband! Today marks our second year of marriage!

Today, I'm feeling very positive. My paper for English tonight is complete, and I think it's a very good paper. Indeed, I wouldn't have been able to make it so great if not for Kevin, who helped me immensely. Not only that, he also complemented me liberally which was nice because it's always horrible for one's ego to have another critique one's writing. It was nice that someone else had faith in my abilities.

This morning, Jim helped me work on a scholarship essay. He was really very helpful, and I feel like I came out with a much better essay because of him. I turned in a final product that I was very confident about, but now it's just a waiting game. We'll see who ends up getting nominated for Owens. (The scholarship in question is the Jack Kent Cooke scholarship. It's $30,000 a year for up to 3 years. Super important! Fingers crossed for me, okay?!) Needless to say, it's been a day of writing for me, a theme that I'll have to continue well into tomorrow in order to finish my essay about the common traits suffragists share. At any rate, I'm feeling productive.

Scholarship essay: done. English paper: done. History paper: in progress and coming along nicely. Take-home Chem test: not begun. All in all, not bad.
