What's left to lose, you've done enough...
So.
You can't please everyone all the time.
The only person you have to please is yourself.
But what if you're only happy with yourself when you've pleased everyone?
In a completely related note, why the hell did I think going back to school was a good idea?

Be happy with yourself because you are... and because you are trying to do something with your life. You don't have to please everyone, you just need to learn how to believe in and be happy with who/where/what you are...
You should come to Buddhist group with me... don't worry, I'm not trying to convert you... I'm not converted, but they have some really interesting ways of thinking about things that may help you help yourself. Or at least take out some stress.

and thanks for the support... I'm getting alot better at realizing, yes, I COULD get the grades, but at a pretty steep price from all the other things I do. I think maybe I equate getting perfect grades with gaining someone's respect, and that's not necessarily so, even with the professor who assigns the grade.
