"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So, for those of you keeping track at home, that's 2 As and 1 A- this semester, plus the 2 As and 1 B+ from the incompletes. Not too bad...not too bad.

Very impressive, particularly in a term where you had to catch up with several incompletes and get a job and earn an iPod. Congratulations - you've achieved so much this year.

Now I want you to take a deep breath and realize that if you do ever happen to get a B+ it doesn't mean you're a bad person.

I'm all for achieving your goals and doing well, but Good Grades can be like Crack and people tend to get dependent on them for their self-esteem. Which really gets difficult in the real world where you don't get a report card so often and annual reviews are nowhere near as validating.

Punishingly Intricate

Adding my voice to the chorus of YAY!!! vw!!!!

annual reviews are nowhere near as validating

Except in that, if you're lucky, sometimes a good work review = bonus/raise.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Which really gets difficult in the real world where you don't get a report card so often

And this is why we need GOLD STARS.

Mostly lurking...

Oh, Hec, I'm *expecting* some B+s...especially in my science and math courses. I'll probably be disappointed and work twice as hard, but I know that they can't all be As. I am going to take a deep breath, though. And I can only hope that the rest of my semesters go half as well as this one did.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

If you pre-order from Amazon, they don't charge until it gets shipped, right?

Aimée, that is correct.

vw, you just ignore Hec's practical thinking today and enjoy the hell out of what you've done. Tomorrow is time enough to think rationally.

Word. I failed a class a couple years ago, remember? Which kind of sucked, a lot, but what was my point again?

Sorry, I'm just trying to get through the next few minutes before I cazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Thanks Sparky.

Always Anti-fascist!

Hec is so brilliant. I'm sure my Lisa Simpson school habits helped create the feedback skel y'all know and love. Hate this about me.
