I think I must have died and gone to heaven, I've waited so long to hear these magic words, "You have really improved!"
I must have heard it ten times today.

I've known it for a long time (I mean--let's face it--I had no place to go but up!!), but I have been really craving recognition. I noticed at camp last weekend that the critique was definitely at the next level up, but I didn't hear those magic words, "You have really improved!!" I know I've still got a long way to go, but just for today, I'm going to rest on my laurels and bask in the glory, and feel really superior and terrific. It's been a long time coming, and I intend to milk every ounce of enjoyment out of it.

Someone asked me today (there were actually a few at this camp who were less experienced than I) how I had gotten such a good evaluation. I'd say, hard work, a listening ear, and this discussion board. Heck, if I can do it, anyone can!!
