a fortunate turn of events

[archaist]

All through the winter break, and all through last night, I had been having an anxiety attack over the inevitability of getting back an essay that I wrote about William Blake's "The Sick Rose." I've been obsessing over a ton of little problems I could recall in the essay and had decided I'd be happy to get a B on it. Several failures to use MLA

Congratulations on the essay. I've also found that sometimes the essays I feel are full of mistakes get the greatest approval from professors. I recently received high praise for an essay in which I repeatedly cited a review that Coleridge wrote for Critical Review, only I kept calling the journal Critical Inquiry - a rather different publication.
