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...

my shattered heart

so i was the one to say the words, to put the ring back into your recieving hand. we were supposed to have become a happy married couple today but we became two disgruntled single people. I said I love you because I do and to talk to me if you needed to talk because I wanted you to tell me I could talk to you. You always thought that i had friends to talk to but i don't. their lives are so shiny and filled with light and to go tarnish it with my problems especially when I think I am the Problem is not feasible for me. I don't have a wonderful man anymore. I pray that he continues to find himself and grow to have a beautiful family that ill probably be envious of and a nice compassionate wife. I don't know what to do with myself. Usually people  who break up with people have somewhere to go, something to focus on. I feel like a dunce at work a pretender and i'll soon be found out and kicked out. I feel like my relationships with people all over are so shallow. ...

Life leaves me wanting.

The way I've lead my life leaves me wanting so much more. For example the last 8 years of my life could have been so much more active, or so much productive, so much more aspiring, so much more of so much more... I could have set goals for myself experimented in more ways life, love, art and faith. In my life I could have been childlike, I could asked the questions I longed to ask save for fear that if I ask them it would seem as if I was rejecting God, rejecting religion. But that's just a part of what I could have done that is so much more. I could have been so much more. I can still be so much more. the entirety of the rest of my life lies  before me. The words that I say, every one of them, a new beginning. The much more that I desire, it's within my grasp. The questions I want to ask, God's ears are open I only need ask; I only need to look forward and test the waters by doing more; to producing more and to be more active. The entirety of existence has not end...
