I am finished with my first year of college!
I had a terrible first semester. It was pathetic... I earned two B's and three F's. Yes, F's. Why? I put work over school. I would go to work instead of class. We needed the money, and I had no good way to balance. I missed exams. I slept constantly. I sabotaged myself and my grades.
This semester, I kicked it up a notch. I am not a bad student. I plan on being the best damn civil rights lawyer that Indiana has ever seen. I will know my full grades on Wednesday, but I do know what I earned in two classes. General Studies 295 was an A. English Composition was an A. That's right, bitches. TWO A GRADES SO FAR!
I am systematically retaking each of my failed classes. The initial grades will remain on my transcript, but they won't count towards my graduate GPA. Only the new grades will count - the new, better grades.
I've been tagged (twice) a while back, so I'll be doing that soon. I promise!
