I am magically smart again.

It was not widely reported in the media, but I received a B- on my first Shakespeare exam. I have, like, never gotten that low of a grade on a test in any English class, ever. But I took it like a grownup, took a deep breath, and vowed to do better next time. Obviously, it was a new class, new instructor, new TA's, and I didn't know what to expect. Apparently the rest of the class did very poorly as well.
So, there's a new test on Friday. Today, I went to see my TA to ask him to look over my exam so I would have a better idea what I did right and what I did wrong so that I could do better on Friday's exam. So, he reads over my answers and says, "Yeah, I don't know what I was thinking. These are really good answers." He then changes my scores and suddenly I have an A- instead.
HUZZAH!
Seriously people, go talk to your TA's.
