So lately I’ve found myself kind of slacking in the homework department. The teacher that taught my last two classes was kind of a softy when it came to grading and homework requirements; I got spoiled.

Now, to my great shame, I got a paper back today from my new teacher (who also happens to be the program head of my major) today and *gasp* I got a B, and not just a B, worse, a B-. *hangs head in shame*

I can’t believe I got a B-!!! But, after re-reading the paper and careful analysis, I realized I didn’t deserve any better of a grade than that. I procrastinated writing the paper until the last minute and my paper shows that.

After careful thought and consideration I realized though that all in all I am glad I got that B-. It has really encouraged me to get my butt in gear and really delve into my homework. I’m paying a lot of money for these classes and I really need to put in the extra work and effort to make sure that I get all that I possibly can from each and every class!

So thank you Prof for my B-, it did what nothing else could have done, it lit a fire under my bum
