I realize a lot of my negativity is streaming from one thing-- this particular semester is driving me crazy. I'm taking two sciences (I don't want to use the term "hate", but I'm not very good at science and don't particularly care for it.) an english class I honestly feel like I'm too good to be in, basically a repeat of high school speech and two Saturday labs for said sciences.
The English arrogance? It needs to stop. I'm in a nut up or shut up situation-- yeah? You're so ~awesome~ at English, Sinclair? Why don't you have an A? Work on getting an A. Don't chalk it up to the class being too easy, because that frankly sounds ridiculous. Admitedly, the "I did poorly because I was bored." excuse works for a while, but I'm paying to be here and I can force myself through an hour and a half of review twice a week. Plus Miranda showed me a paper writing trick I'm kind of excited to use. Even if in some alterreality I am "too good" for the class? Who cares. Learn something in patience, then.
I'm quickly learning that science is much like a needy little kid; even if I'm no where near a test I need to study. Sciences are such a world apart from what I'm used to, but I'm quickly learning diligence if definitely a key.
Off to geology!
