I knew he was SMART... but not THIS SMART...

When Julius and I were in junior high, the only chance we had to see each other was in the halls in between classes. We would meet at someones locker and walk to class together. I remember walking him to his Gifted and Talented classes... he was a nerd even back in the day. LoL.

I knew he was smart, but not THIS SMART...

My NERD of a husband is so bright, smart, intelligent, wise, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera :)

Fall semester has come to an end. Overall, it was a successful semester. Julius carried a full load of 17 credits. He was very busy and seemed exhausted. Besides his classes that he received grades in, he was a TA (teacher assistant) for Organic Chemistry I, which means he attended extra class discussions to help answer other students' questions and graded exams, AND He was an SI (supplemental instructor) for Organic Chemistry II, which means he created lesson plans and taught the students in a different way than the teacher. He had to teach at least 3 times a week. Busy, busy, busy!

He had all A's with one C in "Behavioral Neuro Biology" (just the name sounds hard to me. lol). His only C... Booo! His transcripts look awesome with a bunch of A's and one silly C. He said Behavioral Neuro Biology was so hard to stay awake in. It must have been torture for him because he gets so interested in everything he learns and studies.

When Julius told me he got a C, I was kind of upset. I felt like we sacrificed our family time with him so he could study and do well... not, not be with us and get C's. I also felt like so many people are supporting us and cheering for his success that he CANNOT do bad and get C's. I also felt for him. He has so much pressure now, so much on his plate, and I know HE IS doing his BEST!

Julius made the University's DEAN'S LIST!! Hooray! Yup, even with that silly C, he still made the Dean's List. The Dean's List is like the honor roll, it's the university's list of students with HIGH SCHOLASTIC STANDING. He really did do good. We can't focus and get worked up on one "no A" grade but only learn and do better. We still have MORE to be grateful for, like the DEANS LIST!! YaY!

Good job to our smart Daddy for doing so well. One semester down and a lot more to go.

We Love You, Julius!
