Grades - Blog Posts
I may be fucking my chances of going to college right now, but at least the GPA is high enough that they won't kick me out of theatre.
(But seriously, if I make it through high school, I don't think any college will want me with the grades I have)

Help Us Rebuild Our Lives After the War in Gaza،
Hello, my name is Maher. My family and I fled from the devastating war in Gaza to Egypt. We lost our home, business, and everything we had. Now, we are trying to build a new life and need your help.
Our family of eight faces daily challenges. We urgently need funds for:
1. Education: Covering the high costs of schooling for my children and university fees for my daughters.
2. Debt Repayment: Paying off the debts incurred during our escape from Gaza.
3. Housing: Renting a safe and stable home in Egypt.
4. Psychological Support: Providing necessary psychological care for my children traumatized by the war.
Your donation can make a significant difference in our lives. Every contribution, no matter how small, helps us move towards a stable and hopeful future. Please consider helping us rebuild our lives.
Help me 🚨🍉

Psa: your grades do not define you!! If you get a grade of D on your test, try to get a C next time. Just because you’re not good at testing, or your brain just can’t comprehend certain stuff, does not mean you are dumb or stupid. You are all valid and worthy no matter what grade you get. Better then your last score? Great! Amazing! Awesome! Then do even better next time. Even if that’s just one more percentage. Improvement is always amazing, even if it’s not a great score. Just know that’s just because you got a score of 60% that it does not define you or your worth. School tricks you to make you believe that your test scores define you. New flash, it doesn’t!! You’re so smart. And you can get through that test/quiz. I can promise you that.

(This was mostly just to lift me up bc I failed my ap human geo test and I’m close to a D in the class lmao)
help would be nice :)
Current Mood: Scared. Guilty. Nervous.
As you all know school for the most of us is either over or just finishing up which means report cards. (Yay.) Just to keep it brief, this school year has been the best for me, despite it’s ups and downs, mostly ups for me.
Now, as you guys can imagine I’m scared half to death, even, about the report cards coming out, I’ve never been homeschooled before, so it was all new to me as to many others. But that’s not the reason on why I’m scared, the reason on why I’m scared is because of missing work. Now with missing work it’s pain to get it done and then graded and updated, if your teachers use a site to do it on, which mine do. Now, I turned in all of my things before this happened, a couple of math tests, science I can’t do because the thing I use it for (flipgrid) barely worked for me half of the time, (that I expect to get a bad grade on along with Math, because maths a bitch.) and I was sick those days, it was just to make up some tests. Again, for me the virus was only in China and just seemed something like the flu as the way the news was protaling it back then and the way I saw it as well.
I stayed after school for those ‘make -up’ days, the teacher was in there and knew that I was doing the work and all, keep that in mind, anyways, I finished the math work up, placed it on his desk and left. Now, I didn’t expect him to grade it right away he has his class, my class, and another class, his class being the biggest out of the two, so whatever, right? He’ll just go into his computer and tick it off, right? Right? Now, don’t get me wrong I get that people are busy and all and I of course just pushed it off we were also getting ready for MAPS testing and stage forward testing along with getting placed in classes for high school, so you can imagine all the chaos going around, so I didn’t talk to him and I just assumed that he had them all ticket off. Again, fast forward this time being after or around spring break, I can’t remember, but we were all quartined and I then took this opportunity to see the missing work I had and you probably guessed it, the missing work from math, still missing. Did I say anything about it? Nope, cause I assumed that the site was just bugging out, (it often did that) so I just shrugged it off.
-Now to the present, I’m pretty great in school, I mostly managed to pull A’s, B’s and C’s and sometimes a D- in the process of things, mostly math. Now the thing I’m worried about is my parents. Like any parents they take this stuff seriously and with my falling out from last year, bad grades as you can guess, first time in forever, I wanted to try really hard this year and just looking at my grades now knowing that it’s gonna be the same, I’m just scared. The worse I can probably get off is a grounding and a lecture, along with summer school, which is whatever they’re just trying to help and I’m grateful for that but I know a lot of kids aren’t fournatue to have that which I think is just stupid, the abuse they get and all news flash not helping, technology isn’t always to blame, Karen and I could write and whole essay on how I think that all situation and situations are just stupid like yeah sure they failed but if you try to help or just lean in and act like you know what you’re doing, they’ll appreciate it, trust me it can go a long way for some, same goes with teachers and school staff, but listen like I said, I’m over all scared and just mad at myself and extremely guilty for letting my parents down, like I said I’ll try my best to get caught up but I doubt it’ll change.
Can anyone explain to my teachers that giving us 1h30 to finish an #exam that's supposed to take 3h doesn't necessarily mean we'll be twice as fast ?
Because my parents used to do this, I ended up tying my self-worth and intelligence to my grades, and it fucked me up for a while. If I ever decide to have children, I won't do this to them.
hot flaming take i’m abt to slap you with: it’s not acceptable to punish children for their grades, no matter the circumstances.
January 9 2018: 2/100 My mom surprised me with a note and a gift card when I got home because I got straight A’s last semester. I’ve always been unable to really focus on school because of my dysphoria and anxiety and this year my mental health had improved so much since I started transitioning :) Although I’m proud of my achievement, remember that your grades don’t define your intelligence or work ethic. Strive to do your best and always take care of yourself ❤❤❤
My Stupid Castle
And it looks like
This could be the end
Of this perfect palace
This new life
Was so sweet
With beginners luck
The fairy godmother magic
Could only hold out for so long
A kite flying
Then getting pulled back down
By the person who is flying it
At least
I didn’t get stuck
In a tree
My stupid castle
Was not built by a genius
It was built
By this peasant
Who was not destined to be a ruler
I now see myself once again
As not worthy
And I was silly to think I was
Depression
Is trying to kiss me
And sneak into my system
Through my chapped, chewed, cracked lips
I thought that we weren’t dating anymore, just friends
I can only keep
My dreams alive for so long
Before I become too worn down to maintain them
Being whipped
By disappointment
I can feel
Failure
Making its poisonous way back into my blood
I don’t know how to
Make myself clean again,
By sterilizing my depression
With
Hope
Grades
Just watching your grades drop down to failure
What specific grade makes you a failure?
At what point are you considered a success?
If a 65 is passing, what’s so bad about a 64?
Are you a failure if you have a 0?
Or are you beating the system of grades;
And beating the government?
The difference between a 100 and a 0
Is just one
One point, that’s all
So let me make a good one
When we meet we shall laugh about those bad grades
And those teachers who said you were going nowhere
And all the classes that laughed at you and took you as a joke
School doesn’t teach you life; life does that
School is just an old factory that produces brainwashed people
You are taught to want to graduate and move onto college
Then get a job, fall in love and have a family
But for you and me
We need something different!
Grades are in for 2 out of my 3 classes for the summer. I got an A in both of the classes were the grades were out. Scared of the last one... Workplace Writing: 5 week course, A HTML5 / CSS: 8 week course, A Philosophy - Ethics: 8 week course, unknown
Hey guys! I’m still collecting answers for my survey until about the end of the week if you’re interested in taking it. It’s for a research class. The topic is the relationship between the availability of mental health services on a college campus and the academic success of its students. If you’re an undergraduate student, please, if you can, take the time to fill out the survey! I’d really appreciate it, and it only takes about 5-10 minutes tops to do.

Thank you!!
Hi guys! I know this is completely unrelated to what I usually post on here, but I'm currently doing a research project on the availability of mental health services at colleges and how it relates to academic success. If you are a college student, regardless of where you go, please take a moment to complete this survey if you can (it takes about 10 minutes, tops). It would really help me out a lot! Thank you!
