I totally forgot what it was, but I woke up with the feeling of being in the world of that nightmare still in me. And that feeling kept telling me, hauntingly, to take AP Lang. 

Ridiculous? Haha maybe. But now I’m dead scared of not taking it. Like I know that it might not be the best decision and that I might kill myself with work junior year, but after that nightmare, I just have to take that class.

Ciotti emailed me my grade, so…

Hi Bretney,

You got a B for the semester: 88.8%.  It was on the close side to an A, but still a B.  I’m sure you are a little disappointed.  Your writing has been good, but sometimes inconsistent.  At times you wrote beautiful prose, and at other times, somewhat unfocused.  But overall, you did fine work, nothing to sniff at.

Have a fine summer,

Ciotti 

Gahhhh. So close. People are telling me that I can still take the class if i have an A or a high B even without the recommendation? I mean, come on, it was Ciotti of all teachers...
