Although my GPA isn’t that bad, I really wish it didn’t matter so much like it does. Like my physics teacher said “grades are stupid.” They distract you from the real reason you go to school and that is to learn and get an education. After being so self-conscience about my grades I came to realize that learning matters more. Getting an A in a class doesn’t matter to me anymore what matters is that I understand the subject and that I enjoy it. Of course you want to pass the class, but think about it if you try more to learn than to get that A which will look so beautiful in your report card (or whatever you call it in you school) you will pass. People love A’s but what’s use of getting an A if you won’t understand what you learned in a few weeks or days. Getting a B isn’t all that bad if you studied hard. I don’t understand how parents throw a fit when their kids get a B, especially when they get an 89. I do admit it sucks to get an 89 because it’s so close to that beautiful seductive A. But chill out. As long as the kid studies hard it’s all that matters.
Don’t rely on your grades so much to tell you how much you know about a subject. If you just focus in learning you will pass and have a greater probability to get an A, and you will be an educated person.

How I did it: I started liking a guy who volunteers in the library where I am doing a summer internship for a leadership program (long story). I knew I shouldn't let myself fall for such dude who flirts with almost every girl but you know you can't control it sometimes. I realized today that he wasn't into me and that he wasn't worth my time as he would ignore me whenever he was with his friends or any pretty girl. I felt pretty bad … Read how I did it…
How I did it: Don't waste your money on make-upUse that money to buy moisterizing cream for your face, or lotion for your hands...because that is truly worth itTake care of your hair. Make it look healthy.Style your hair.Stop watching all those stupid commercials and magazines they are truly shallow. Read how I did it…
Love hurts very much, especially when that person doesn’t love you back or doesn’t even value you. I’ve learned today that I should not blame myself for not being noticed, or for not being loved back. I have done nothing wrong. If I have to change the way I am for a guy to like me then maybe he isn’t worth it. I will not change who I am for a guy. I love the way I am.
Just the thought of doing it for school makes me not want to do it…But I can’t procracinate…
