I got an A on my first quiz in Torts, which made me unreasonably happy given that it's worth like .5% of my final mark. I think it's because I really have no idea how I'm doing a lot of the time - I seem to find the regular readings easier, and the assignments harder, than many other people do, and when something comes easily I don't quite believe I could have it right.
The assignment difficulties come from my writing phobia, which I'm not fully over. When I was fifteen, I took a world religions class, and one day my teacher - who was half Tsimshian, and psychic, and sort of the Dragon Lady of the school - gave me a piercing look and said "Your problem is that you don't think you're qualified to comment." Which is still pretty much it.
