REALLY? YESSSSSSSS! So you did say it would be tough as shit but I honestly did not believe you 100%. I had what I thought was a good idea of what type of student I was and thought to myself that I would be able to get through your class, even if you did say it would be the hardest class here at IUP. HELL WAS I WRONG!!!

At the beginning of the course when thigns got underway I realized that I was in WAY over my head. I tend to do this to myself and bit off more than I can handle and I thought that this was just going to be another time where I realize that I am not going to be able to live up to the standard I want because I took too much on to myself. To my surprise and great pleasure I was wrong. I believe that I handled the class and honestly am very happy with the work that I have accomplished this semester.

I took all the fears of not completing the class with an A, because honestly I am big on grades and probably should not be, but I took those fears and turned them into determination. I figured if I was going to put up with this shit the whole semester I might as well get a kick ass paper out of it!

I really enjoyed learning more about the deaf culture and the stuggles of students through my research. I also feel very accomplished because I have gotten the word out about the deaf community to a lot of people who have never heard of it before. That was one major goal of mine with the paper and I may even do some more research and try and publish because I feel people need to know about the deaf community!!!

My proudest moment was these last few weeks. I felt good because it was over and I made it!! The class was way more enjoyable than I thought it would be and because I liked being there, I think that I will remember more from it. I met alot of pretty sweet people and learned some interesting shit. Thanks Marlen!
