I just wanted to let you know, in case you wanted to stop reading, that there is quite a bit of bragging that is about to go on. I am proud to say that I am DONE with this semester! It feels AMAZING!!!!! To recap all of my hard work:
In my Accounting 1 class:
I got a 99% on my last test, over Ch. 9&10
I got a 76/80 on my final, over Ch. 1-8. My teacher dropped 4 questions, so I ended with a 76/72. This means I got a 105% on my final!!! I ended the class with a 100%!!!
In my Management class:
I got a 96% on my final test.
I got a 279.8 out of 280 on my Individual final paper, that's a 99%! Our group paper and presentation got a 179.87/180! I ended the class with a 99%!!!
In my Marketing class:
I got a 100% on my final marketing project!
I got a 91.7% on my final test. I ended the class with a 95%.
That's right- All A's!!!!! My hard work has paid off!
Now, last week was my final week of the semester and it was CRAZY! Besides work and school, Joel had 2 work parties. On Thursday, we had the Nestle Annual Banquet and Christmas Party. We had the banquet and award ceremony at the DeVos Center. Then we walked over to the Amway Grand and had an amazing dinner. There was a potato bar with lots of toppings and they scooped the potatoes into a martini glass. It was different, but tasted wonderful! Then we had a magician for entertainment. He did a great job; some things I couldn't figure out how he did them! On Friday night we went to Notos Italian restaurant in Grand Rapids with the Packaging and Engineering group. This was a very nice dinner and the company was great. I loved meeting Joel's coworkers! Our table had 7 people at it. We ordered 4 first course meals to split so we could try different things. Then we all ordered off of the second course menu. We had some great desserts too! It was very pricey, so I doubt Joel and I would ever eat there on our own. After the dinner, we drove to Joel's parents' house for the weekend. It was my birthday on Saturday, Joel's on Sunday, and Julianne (Joel's sister) had a birthday on the 10th. I got to sleep in on Saturday morning until 10:30 and it was FANTASTIC! Then I got to lounge around because I had no homework to do. I got to open my gifts from Joel's parent's and I got a new camera!!! I've been wanting one, but I forgot that I had mentioned it to them a long time ago. Then we went to get Julianne from the Detroit airport. She flew in from BYU-Id. It was so great to see her! Then we stopped for dinner at a Big Boy's. Our service was terrible, they got my food wrong, and they didn't even bring me a birthday dessert. But on our way home, Joel's mom got my a cheese cake and sparkling grape juice- my favorite! I got tons of facebook posts, phone calls, and texts messages. I also spent the day with family. Overall, it was a wonderful 23rd birthday! I am very loved and am fortunate to have the family that I have! Now to get ready for the Christmas season- We still have to put up the tree and decorations! Not to mention shopping and wrapping gifts!
