Reflections

I am glad that my studying and hard work paid off. I got an A. Now the icing on the cake would be a 100 on the final exam or close to it.
As I move close to Father's day, I have lots of good memories of my dad. However there are a few that are not so good. I feel conflicted because I want to just remember him as a good dad.
I know he also gave me the incentive to do well in school. It was $50 for an A in a language but $75 for an A in psychology. Maybe that is where that drive comes from to excel. Even though I don't get paid anymore, I get rewarded in other ways, coffees a high five or maybe a new top.
I want to keep a healthy balance with this school stuff, however that side comes out where it is an A or nothing. I know I need to address that with Miriam.
Looking forward to doing that tape recorder exercise with her again.

Home Stretch

It is almost the end of the semester! Now I feel the need to pull out all the stops to make it a great exam! It is worth 200pts. Needless to say the pressure is on me maintain this A status.  What I don't want to do is give the eating disorder foothold to come in the doorway. I have to maintain a balance.

Also on the home front, been good to see my brother while he was here to assist the needs of my father in law. He is a great brother. I will miss him when he leaves but I know I can keep in touch with him while he is at home too.
