The results for the Media Assignment was announced to me on Monday afternoon.
I had more than butterflies... maybe cockroach, mosquito and many other insects
flying around in the stomach.
Dr Reinders was nice. He gave me constructive feedback about the assignment.
It was a very good session. I got to know the areas that I have to work on.
Anyway, I am sure you are all excited to know what I got. It was not marks but
grades. I was actually afraid to fail. Can you imagine? Me! at this age... afraid!
Yes. I was afraid... fear of not doing well. I wanted to do well so that people around me
like my son and students will be motivated to well to. My husband and I have a sort of an agreement to do well in what we have undertaken. He is currently doing his degree at Unisim.
He would share with me his grades for his assignment and exams. His motivation and drive spurred me to do well. I would not want to lose to him. Ha! Ha! So competitive. He got A for the last semester. I want to do equally well especially for my son. I want him to see that at this age, his parents are still studying and impress on him the importance of education. Any other way will not work... I get complacent quite easily.
There are times... when all the three of us will be with a book or papers either to read or complete. Just like last night, I had to read my book on motivation to do the assignment. Adam was reading his Jean Ayre book because he has to do his assignment and Shaheed was doing a practice paper. Everyone was so focussed in what they were doing.
Back to my grades for the Media Assignment... I've got B+. I know it is not an A but I guess... it
was good enough for the time being. I will strive for A in the next assignment. Since I am striving for an A... I have to go and do some research on the assignemtnt. Cheerios!!!
