Today I was cleaning out my email box and I came across an email I sent to my Dad on December 19, 2006. I was on winter break before going back to my last semester in college. This is a classic.
Dad,
Guess what I got in Accounting? A "B!"
And it's not even a low B, it's a HIGH B! I scored an 87 on the final
exam! Woooo-hooo!
I went out more than ANY OTHER SEMESTER and I'm making TERRIFIC GRADES!
Especially given the fact that this was ACCOUNTING class.
Just thought I'd share that with you!Emily, Your Daughter

The truth is, this email was probably an assurance to good ole' pops that his checks were being put to good use. Also, for those of you questioning my intelligence and my priorities, let's clarify something. First, I always got A's in all of my classes...except for math classes. Math just stumped me (but I'd love to see what some of my former teachers think of the PPW theory, now that's relevant math in action). Plus, I partied like a rock star my last year of college. So I think I have reason to be proud of this achievement!
You've gotta' love coming across a paper trail highlighting one of your finer moments.
