On the Count of Oblivion, I'm Guilty
I've looked in the mirror
The world's getting clearer
I'll take what you'll give me
Please know that I'm learning
So wait for me
This time
Don't know why I'm writing again, because I really have nothing to say. I just finished studying for my science midterm. I wrote my math midterm yesterday, and it went..okay...I suppose. I don't know. It could have been a lot worse - there were about four questions where I completely blanked and didn't have a clue what I was doing. But other than that, It wasn't too awful. I got my language arts midterm back. I got 87% on it, and I realize that 87% is a very good mark and that I should be very happy with it, but I can't help being a bit disappointed. I think I have a weird-ish mentality when it comes to school. Despite how good my marks may be, I'm always wishing that they were better. I never just accept what they are and move one - I dwell on all of the things that went wrong and feel stupid for being wrong and it's a really messed up way to think, because nobody is ever always right and nobody is or ever will be perfect but it absolutely kills me that I'm not. And I know - I
know - that I never will be perfect, but it's the one thing that I want more than anything else. I realize this all sounds really stupid, like I somehow think that I'm an exception from the rest of the human race, which I don't - I realize that I'm not any more or any less than anyone else, and I think that I'm pretty good at accepting the imperfections of other people, so why is it that I can't accept my own?
Whoa. Apparently I had a lot more to say than I thought
