This semester is coming to a close... I have a feeling I won't make Dean's List again, but I'll only miss it slightly. I'll probably get 3 A's and 2 B's. Oh well. At one point, I was really stressing out about this, but I had to remind myself to breathe. My grades won't represent what type of teacher I'll be or what I really know, grades are just an arbitrary way of showing students who's boss ;)
I really do work hard for my grades, though. I care about my GPA because I know that one day (when applying for teaching jobs) it will matter. I wish I was in the Honors program, but it's a little too late. I think it is hard for transfer students to get into the Honors system, but then again, I didn't really try. Most of the classes that would count for honors credit are classes that I've already taken (English, Math, Core Humanities). Oh well- I don't have to graduate suma cum lade. A title on my future diploma will not define me.
Everyone wants to be the best at everything; I just want to be the best at being me.
