ranked 1st

This morning when I went to my math class, my teacher passed back the last test that I took in the class. I generally do alright in this class, I pass all the quizzes and the tests, I take notes, I'm there everyday, and blah blah blah. You get the picture. But, today my teacher gave me a grade sheet along with my test. I got a 48/50 on my test. And on the grade sheet, were all A's! All A's! And, that in itself is a huge success for me because I'm terrible at math. In high school, I failed just about every math class I was put in and I'd have to retake them. I retook about 3 math classes, and went to summer school my freshman because I failed Alegbra 1. But today, I was just so proud of myself. Me, all A's in math, that just doesn't happen. And, then to top it all off, my teacher wrote on the top my paper "Ranked 1st in the class :)" WHAT?!?! NO WAY. me? first in the class? a math class? it just doesn't happen. But, regardless, I'm proud of myself, and even more determined to do better in my other classes. I have more faith in myself to do better :) because I know that I can do it.
