The letters that brought about happiness and sweet relief

To Prof. Peter S.

I am writing this letter in a really distressed state. I was just now checking on my grades in all of my
classes And I was flabbergasted by my Physics grade. I really am not sure if I calculated it correctly. So if
it is not too much trouble do you mind informing me of my grade as of now? I would gladly come to your office
hours if need be.

The letter he wrote back

Hi Yvette (Is it weird that him writing my name made me feel important? Kyaaaa! The professor knows my name!)

You currently have a B . As I mentioned in class today, this is a PROJECTED
grade assuming that your future homework scores are the same as your past homework
scores, your future exam scores are the same as your past exam score, etc.
Therefore, the first midterm exam has a lot of weight in this projection.
You can improve your grade by doing better, ESPECIALLY on the exams.
You've been doing well in the lab and pretty well on the homework, and have 100%
in the participation category, so keep up the good work on those. :)

I hope that helped explain it. (I do NOT require 90% for an A, 80% for a B, etc.)

Regards,
Peter S.

And I happily wrote:

Thank you a lot Professor!!!! A big frown just turned upside down. I will keep up and improve my performance in your class.

I was truly happy so much so that I got a 10/10 on my Chem pre-lab assignment.

Naul's Memory of the wind

Upon my first exposure to the video (on Mnet) with out subtitles, I thought: the guy in the uniform was a Japanese invader.  Japan was bombing Korea. ( I thought of this only because i remember Japan having to do something with bombs. Like Hiroshima; only I switched it around and Japan was doing the bombing. The guy and his daughter were playing and the bombs started approaching. He ran with his daughter but the bombs were faster and the guy in the uniform were getting closer. A bomb came really close and the guy used his body to shield his daughter. (Not really plausible seeing as the human body is not that strong.) Then the Japanese soldier was passing by and aw the little girl and had pity on her. then he ended up liking her so he married her. (Its very illogical because he doesn't age. And I doubt the little girl would have willingly agreed to marry someone whose race, nation help bring about her fathers death.) The Soldier is sexy jumping of his horse; maybe the reaso...

This night

To those nights when night sheds light on the cavity within you... When you realize the hours past are hours too far gone to be recollected; never to be caught; there will be no recycling of then for now... When your brain knows which way to go. And serendipitously, so does your heart but the "how?" purrs cooingly masking the crouching tiger hidden by a fog of uncertainties... When tears form and dissipate at equilibrium because you cause tears and cry and accuse you of being the cage that holds you captive and the captor has no right to let saltwater down this face... When you ache at the fact of tomorrow night being one of those nights because yesterday too was one of those nights. I know I make it hard to do but,... Stay bubbly! TYB
