"92% A- Good Overall"

That's what my Art History professor wrote at the top of my test that I got back on Tuesday!

I don't think I've received an A on any history test since grade school. It's just not my favorite subject.

I give a lot of credit to my teacher, Dr. Felicia Else, who has made me more interested in art history than I would have ever thought I'd be. She's so interesting and entertaining to listen to and learn from. She has a quirky voice that varies with style as she talks about subjects and when she gets really excited about a topic, she almost dances around the room with glee.

She's hilarious and intelligent and one of the best professors/teachers I've ever had. : )

Especially since she's interested me, a non-history person, in history enough to make me want to learn about it and excited to attend her class.

I'm adding her to my "one of the most influential people in my life" list.

(oh, and by the way, I would have said that about her even if I didn't score as well on my test. No, really, I would have.)

: )

Hi Caron!

Good going on the art history test! All those times when I drug you into the art museums on vacations is paying off! haha

I hope I'm on your list!

Have a good Friday the 13th!

Love, Momxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxxoxoxoox

Caron, you should have chat with my buddy Chris who has a masters in Art History and is working on his PhD out in Washington D.C. I think he also did some work at the Smithsonian. If you need any quick help I'm sure he would be glad to answer any problems you might be having, although from the looks of things you're doing great!
