Of As and Bs

I’m done with my finals!

Honestly, this was one of my most tiring semesters thus far, and with the grades for my submissions trickling in (a disappointing conga line of Bs); I tell myself that I have done my best, that I really, really did.

I just hope my grades this time around won’t be as soul-crushingly bad as my grades for the last semester has been.

I really, really did my best.

(And it’s the whole tussle in my head, with myself, about how grade doesn’t matter, what matters is that I’m learning and growing…it’s an ongoing process.)

For now, I will revel in my freedom and all the sleep I will be getting.
