GPA Triumph
You know, it seems just plain wrong, when you think about the sheer number of extra curriculars I crammed in last quarter and the fact that I was running most of them, but I somehow made dean’s list. Two A’s, an A-, a B, and a B-. 3.467. (They don’t give A+’s, an A is as high as you can get.) This means that my GPA is now…drumroll please…
3.008!!!
I did it!!! For two years I’ve said that I wanted to have a 3.0 by the time I graduated if it killed me, and I did it! I feel like I just got through Law School, or climbed Mt. Everest, or successfully campaigned for Governor of California, or something! At the end of my Freshman year I think I had a 1.9, or something insanely low, from failing all of those engineering courses before I transfered. And I graduated with a 3.0! It’s a mathematical miracle. I am so proud of myself I just can’t stand it. Somebody quick, buy me a steak dinner…oh wait I don’t eat steak…well then break out the champagne! Shower me with jewels! Wait my Mom bought me jewelry for a graduation present already…then take me to Disney World…did that, too, my Grandma took the fam Thanksgiving before last. Well figure something out quick!
I feel like the Genie in Aladdin when he gets set free at the end of the flick and bounces all over the screen. The only way to respond to this is to cook. I have to pack and move quickly, get everything arranged, and have a dinner party. Yep, that’s what I’ll do.

good job mel!!!
*Thunderous applause*
I would break out the champagne, but I can’t, since I’m a seminary student and all that. I suppose I could provide some sparkling grape juice!

Congrats!!!!
I graduated with a 2.99, so I’m afraid I don’t know how it feels to finish with a 3.0 or better, but I did make the deans list 4 times

well alex, I finished with a 3.1, but never made the dean’s list, so I don’t know how that feels.
