oops, I forgot one thing...school news...

some of you have emailed me to ask how my second term at PSU went, and I just thought that I should report in...
straight A's, once again (yee haw) and this time...NO MINUS sign...I can't tell you how annoying that A- was first term...
so...
so far two terms with A's...
this term I did have a bit of a surprise...
I am taking a US Politics class, in part because it fit in time wise with my other classes...
and in part because I heard FABULOUS things about the professor...
so...
the first day of class I was looking around (got there a little early)
and was about to go up to this guy that was about my age to ask him...
"do we know each other"
sort of like
did we date
did we work together
you know...
that person that you see that you know you know but can't remember how?
So I am about to go talk to him, and another gal asked me a question and I got distracted and didn't make it over to him...

you know, sometimes you have to be glad that someone distracts you...
cuz later in the class my professor tells us that we are so lucky,
that we are going to have a co-professor for the term...
and he introduces the man that I was going to ask if we have dated or what not...

as Oregon Governor Kulongowski...

yep...
have to be glad of that distraction

by the way, I never did date him :)
that is my school update...
hope you all are well!

Melanie, you are a hoot! And congrats on the grades...do they have a class in people recognition?
Are you coming to Plucky?

I giggled so hard when I read this. Trust me the Governor would have gotten a kick out of this as well. I might just have to tell him the story, promise no names. ;)
Congrats on the grades a handsome bird had told me you were a straight A student. I am not surprised. They are definitely well earned.
