A tonight in Algebra

Wow, my hard work is paying off. I got an A on the 1st test, the 4th quiz, and I think I did well tonight on the quiz. Today I studied all day. Did my homework. Arrived early to class. Had a cup of coffee. I sat in the front row ( as usual). I listen, and wrote down everything the teacher said. After the quiz I was the first one done with the quiz. The teacher said if you'd like to discuss the problems among yourselves, that it was OK. So, I got up and went around the class helping the other students. Half had 1 or 2 problems completed, and were stressing out so I helped them. I was the last to leave. Out of 50 students who started at the beginning of the semester only 12 are left. I have failed before but rarely do I quit. I will go down swinging. I go back and review, I look forward and preview. I set goals. I take lots and lots of notes and keep them very organized. I listen and make eye contact with the Teacher. I listen to the questions the other students ask. at Break I formed a click. I hope to form a study group next week. A Jr High school drop out.The last grade I completed was the 7th grade.
