A B is good Aims! You should be proud of yourself. I have no idea how you are managing to do everything you are doing right now.
I'm starting to feel really sore from my tea disaster this morning, so I think it is time for bed. Night, Bitches!
Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

“Not dead yet!”
It is entirely possible I am a cranky perfectionist and not at all logical about this.
Ya think, my darling?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I get to revise one of the three papers. This one might be it depending on what I get on the one I turned in tonight.
Don't like lit crit.

Our wings are not tired
My parents instilled the belief in me that anything less than 100% was failure. I got grounded more than once for A's that weren't 100%.
Is this not correct?

Besides, one grade does not define you, either as a student or as a human.
It is tough for this grade whore to admit it, but the above is absolutely true. Also, those that matter would only consider a B for The Empress to mean Beautiful or Bodacious, or any number of appropriate B words.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Aims, a B is not a bad grade.
Wisdom teeth are weird.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
I hate them. Hate. To me they say, "Good, but not good enough." They are the stepchild of grades.
Heh. My college had a very strong anti-grade-inflation policy. You had to pretty much create carbon based life to get an A.
You had to be exceptional -- maybe (maybe!) one A per class. C was for doing all the work. B meant you did all the work and your work was interesting and well written. A meant you had done something worthy of publication in an academic journal. An A- was worthy of cartwheels.

Aims, I love lit crit, and I'd be happy to help you revise your paper if you want the help.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Bs are no more bad than stepfamilies!
