Sometimes being smart isn't as good as I think it is. Wondering to myself why bother making an achievement that is to you a major accomplisment, only knowing that your reward must be postponed until a better opportunity presents itself? Does anyone other than mdlbear understand this? In my opinion, there's nothing more disappointing than achieving an 83% (B-) on a math test, calling home & telling them about this, then being told "wait until a better opportunity presents itself." That really fucking bites!!!!

Why do I bother? Should I even tell them when I get high scores on anything if they're going to hold my reward in front of my face on a stick? Why the fuck do I even bother!?

My main problems were with history and PE; math was mostly easy. I remember banging out term papers on a manual typewriter and cursing under my breath the whole time -- does that count?
