August 18, 2004 // 2:30 p.m. Getting away with it I don't know why I feel the need to share such things... If my study abroad semester fuck-up was as bad as I think, my GPA could be no lower than 3.522. Not catastrophic. If that happens and I get a 4.0 both semesters senior year, the best I can bring it up to is a 3.630. Mmm. Pretty crappy. Graduate school leading to a life in academia is out, almost surely out, so there's no point caring that my GPA makes me look like a dumbfuck. I think a library science program would have me on a 3.6. I guess it's all all right. Still, for the past three years I have been an academic fuckoff. What a waste the last three years have been, academically. If they'd just send my damn study abroad transcript already, I could beat myself properly or congratulate myself for getting away with it once again. Edit: Interestingly, the last B I earned at Marietta was World Drama, fall semester sophomore year. I have six grades below an A total at Marietta, all the rest from freshman year. Sometimes I really can't tell if I'm too hard on myself, or not even nearly hard enough. |
