COMM107 is a class for bitches and hoes.

Actually, it really isn't. I'm just saying that because I'm so bitter that the only question I answered incorrectly on yesterday's exam happened to be a question that every other person in my class got right.

Clearly, I'm a genius.

Speaking of which, it really peeves me how people in college think I'm so smart. That is one thing I really do miss about high school: my academic public self. In college, everyone thinks I'm so smart because I was accepted to Harvard and Columbia (both of which I was accepted to because of trumpet, not academics), but it's a total joke; anyone who knew me in high school knows that I'm not a stellar student, let alone an academic prodigy. Sure, I took hard classes in high school, but [1.] everyone did, and [2.] I got B's in all of them. In college, I remember telling one of the guys in my hall that I got a B+ in CLAS170, and he was in total disbelief. "How can YOU get a B? You're a flippin' Einstein!" were his exact words. I really didn't care for them.

In terms of the zone of academia, I enjoy how my high school friends don't think of me as any grades guru, and likewise, I like it when grades are not a topic of conversation with my friends in college (nothing good comes of it anyway).
