So I'm disappointed with my self... I got a B in physics 1. I know, I know, many people would be jumping for joy at this but I honestly thought I did better than that. I do get that "are you kidding me?" look a lot when I talk about grades, but I am GROOMED for this. Vet schools are competitive, and have forced me to be a bit of a 'grade-grubber'. Trust me, I wasn't like this in high school. So now I have to look back and see what I've been doing and what I can change. I'd like to think I'm little-miss-perfect-student, however, I can look back at the past 5 weeks though and say that I did NOT put in my 100%. Sure, I woke up early and studied, but I know I'd get distracted and not pay attention. I started to slack off, especially in the afternoons. I really should be covering the material at least twice before a test, but instead I'd just try to sweep over it quickly. I need to stop looking at everyone else, I need to start looking at myself and what I need to be doing. So what's so bad about a B? Aside from the fact that my teacher made it sound like I'd get a B+ atleast (way to get my hopes up, dude) a B doesn't help my GPA, because a B is just a 3.0, and I need to start creeping higher towards the 3.5 range if I want to be competitive. So this is a mini-rant. If you don't see me much in the next 5 weeks, be glad for me, because hopefully I'll be studying instead of derping around, watching my potential blow away in the hot, desert wind.
Hahaha silly head. You'll do better, you always manage to!
