I got my finalised results back for last semester today.
HIST105 Hyperpower: The United States - An intro into US history, from before Columbus to the Civil Rights movement of the 50s and 60s.
A-
ENGL104 Telling the Story - Intro into literature including Beowulf, Richard III, Genesis and Paradise Lost, Heart of Darkness, Emma, Rime of the Ancient Mariner and a few others.
A-
ENGL235 Post-Colonial Fictions - 2nd year course focusing on literature from Burma and India in the last century, including Rudyard Kipling's Kim and Forster's Passage to India, and about 5 others, even more boring. Actually, I liked Kim.
A-
Anyway, I'm pretty pleased with the two English ones, especially the Post-Colonial Fictions. I was so sick of that class by the end. I had a 3000 word assignment to do that was worth 30% and I wrote it in about 6 hours, not caring whether I passed or not, and I ended up with an A+. That was strange.
I'm a bit disappointed with the History result though. I didn't get less than an A for any of my assignments and I thought I did better in the exam than I did in my English exams, I actually studied for it, which is a bonus the other two classes didn't have, but I still only got an A-. Hopefully it won't matter in a few years when I decide if I want to do a doctorate.
Anyway, feel free to shower me with congratulations, or not
. I just felt the need to brag

Being a heretic
"You approach Satan's wretched city where you behold a wide plain surrounded by iron walls. Before you are fields full of distress and torment terrible. Burning tombs are littered about the landscape. Inside these flaming sepulchers suffer the heretics, failing to believe in God and the afterlife, who make themselves audible by doleful sighs. You will join the wicked that lie here, and will be offered no respite. The three infernal Furies stained with blood, with limbs of women and hair of serpents, dwell in this circle of Hell."
