I am so excited, it is like a dream come true. I have been working on a research paper for my Lit class. It is on Waiting for the Barabrians by J.M. Coetzee. So I have been talking to my professor about it because it is a big project, and I have been overwhelmed with it and everything else. I showed her my almost completed paper today. She read it while I waited. I didn't think she liked it because she wasn't saying anything. When she finished reading it she said "This is good. Really good, do you see it?" She just gave me a few pointers but said she is ready to put an A on it. That is not the best part though - she says I should submit to a writing contest that is going on right now, and she also said I should shop it around for publication!!! WOW! It's that good?? She doesn't know what publications are out there for undergraduates but she said it is good and I have something in my paper above the ordinary. I am so exicted. It would be amazing if I could win a prize in a writing contest or get my work published before I even have my bachelors! Even to have a shot, and to have someone say that about my writing makes me feel out of this world.
