Hello fans! It is me. Sarit! Tonight I decided that this week has been a roller coaster. I needed some me time. Grades are a very daunting thing. Hooray for finishing my second week of college. I'm knitting during school. I want to have a knitting party with people. Anyway, I'm continuing my sack. I am going to make this so long and then go into my sack that I have made. Here is me in my dorm room. It feels so nice to knit and relax for a little while. I've been wondering how much grades matter vs how much going to school for the sake of learning matters. Like I don't ever want to give up either, and I wonder if those two need to be separated. Sometimes I wish I could learn and not feel the need to pay attention to grade, but grades can also be a good way to showing (partly) how much you are learning. It can also encourage you to push yourself. However, it can be really hard when you feel like grades are a representation of your self worth or something that tells whether you will be successful or not. This is not one hundred percent accurate, but it's hard to know. Sometimes the stress of grades will prohibit me from doing my hobbies. However, it is also really good for me to work hard and see the results from my hard work. It can be hard to balance this. I'm trying to work towards healthier ways of thinking about grades. I'm also trying to think about how to work hard in productive ways and reach my goals, while accepting that it doesn't always turn out exactly the way I want it to. I'm pretty tired now. Thanks for reading!
