Conversation of the Day

This is a cute section of a conversation I just had in passing with Shane.

Me: Shane, I got a 95% on my final!

Shane: Awesome, mom, that's good! How many questions did you miss?

It was really hard, all essays. I missed a few points on a couple of the essays. It was all memorizing and took LOTS of studying.

Wow.

I got a B in the course.

That's not perfect, mom.

No, but I brought my grade way up. It was pretty bad for a while. I'm proud of myself for doing so well at the end. It was a hard class.

I'm proud of you too mom. You did good.

I'm trying to get good grades in all of my classes.

A couple minutes later...

Me: College can be hard but I'll get through it eventually. It's really important to do well so that you can get a good job when you're done.

Shane: You're in college???? (flabergasted)

Of course I am! Why do you think I take all these classes, just for fun?

No, I thought you were taking extra classes for high school.

High school? I finished high school way before you were born.

You look like a high schooler.

Thanks, I'm glad to know you think I look young, but no, these are college courses.

Oh!
