Yeah so just keep walking
..cause this is gonna be one of THOSE journals where i blow off steam and piss and moan and then get over shit...
This semester has kicked my ass...literally...and I guess it's fine now cause i kinda needed that to get my ass in gear but like..still it fucking sucks. Like, i got a b- on my first psych exam and the next one i got a c- cause i didn't study AT ALL until like, an hour before the exam...but I've been doing extra cred shit and i get A+s on all the quizzes which are 15% so that'll boost it somewhat but still damn..and then i got a C on my philosophy exam and of course i do the extra credit so hopefully that will help me...and art history i just took the midterm for and i studied my ASS OFF for that shit...i pulled an all-nighter and E-VER-AY-THANG guys, so like...i hope i do well, but I never know!
But none of that really bothers me as much as what happened to me in Kathy's class
I wrote my narrative about how I had to handle Leah when her ex died last summer and it was a really moving piece that i was actually really proud of FOR ONCE and i showed it to nearly E-VER-AY-BOD-DAY and they all really liked it...and i ended up getting no grade on it and just a, 'See Me' on it WHICH IS NEVER GOOD and after talking to Kathy she said it would've been a D even if she thought it was well written cause it was too vague and not in essay format....meanwhile that fucking turd Jefferson got an A+ on a story HE MADE UP. HE MADE UP HIS NARRATIVE ABOUT GETTING SEXUALLY ASSAULTED, WTF THAT'S SO FUCKED UP I CAN'T EVEN GET STARTED ON THAT...and meanwhile i have a piece that actually means something to me and i get a D...she's letting me rewrite it cause she knew I tried hard
But damn...I don't want your fucking pity rewrite...I want the same grade the liar in the back row got, dammit! :(
I guess what really bothered me about that whole thing is that fact that the other shitty grades and stuff was because I didn't try hard enough/slacked off/didn't study...but that narrative I really worked on, and i thought I was gonna do well...and not only that, it's because I'm a Creative Writing major and I would've gotten a D on that project even though it was well written...I guess it just sorta shook my foundation a lot.
I guess all in all I'm happy that I got this, because it's part of being in such a subjective field is that you have to learn to handle criticism and you can't please everyone and need to be willing to compromise...and I was talking to Nicole about it cause she's an English Major too and we both agreed that it's good that Kathy's giving me another chance to show her what I can do.
But I just wish I got it the first time, y'know?
In happier news..NINTEDO WORLD TOMORROW!
