college-ing

the last day of class is tomorrow and i am just seaux anxious beyond measure. i think everyone is ready for summer because the Lord knows i sure am. school is one ball of stress. i’m just ready to relax and release. as far as my grades for this semester, i think i did okay. but everyone has that one class that makes them feel extensively overwhelmed. i had a difficult course this semester. i gave maximum effort and studied really hard, but i didn’t get the preferred results. i was disappointed in myself initially, but after speaking with a few people about it i realized that i did my best and that is that. i can’t beat myself up and sit around sulking. i just have to move on and reflect on what i learned. my mom always says that when you’re going through something difficult to try to see what it is you’re supposed to be learning out of the situation. when you do that, you come out a winner. there are no Ls, only lessons as one may say. 

school is always a touchy subject for some people. people believe that if the grades aren’t there, then they’re not smart. this is just untrue. everyone is smart in their own way, you just have to apply yourself. find what works for you and do your best. that’s all that anyone can ask for. a test grade doesn’t define you. your character defines you. do your best, be your best, and give your best. everything else will fall into place.
