open your eyes

It's Kind of funny how an insult from one of your friends being a jerk can completely open your eyes to something obvious. So today at lunch I was told that I'm a dumbass because I get D's and at first I was really mad, and It kind of hurt my feelings, but then I thought about it alot and It made me realize... I don't have to get D's. That's just something that I accepted... my train of thought was ... "hey at least im passing" but I mean Why not try to get amazing grades? why do I have to settle for lowest of the low without failing? I'm better than that... I'm just lazy.. Becca You need to wake up. I am a Junior this year and I have no idea what my average is but guaranteed its not as good as it could be. I've decided now is the perfect time to start caring. I need to study, I need to pay attention, Stop skipping class to go to the art room. I need to bring my average up to at least a B an A would be amazing. I know that the colleges im looking at require at least a B average,... so I need to make that happen. and now is the perfect time. It's the start of a new six weeks in the middle of the first semester. I'm determined... I just hope it stays as a determination of mine.... hm maybe I should get insulted more often.... no... thats ok...
