Bonus post!!!!!


You may have noticed that I tend to use the exclamation point often.  All I can tell you is that I'm working on it. And, I come by it honestly.

I've always thought the the exclamation point looked so cheerful, as though it were just a way of smiling at the end of your sentence (pre-emoticon).  It looked to me like a great way to show enthusiasm and to express how much I enjoy life.  And apparently I have felt this way for a long time.  A couple of years back, I ran into my student teacher from second grade.  This in itself isn't so surprising, as she worked in the same school I attended , and my mother worked there, as well.  However, she came up to me to mention that in the process of going through some old papers, she came across a page that I had turned in to her during class one day.  Signed in the upper corner on the Name line was:

Melanie Ascota!*


*Name changed to protect the innocent!  heehee
