Apparently, the recipe for getting a 4.0 when you aren’t really that smart is something like: Study. Like, all the time. Have your hair fall out from the stress. Skip your birthday to work on a database. Spend hours doing homework. Don’t see your friends for 4 months. Eat all the time to support your lifestyle of staying up for 48 hours at a time and gain 5-10 lbs.
I’m just really excited because I got my final grade back in the class I’ve been borderline in all semester (database class, the one I had to make those flowcharts for) and I unexpectedly ROCKED the final and got a 94% even though I thought I’d barely get a 90%. So yay. I’m milking this moment, evidenced by the fact that I’m still typing, even though I could have stopped like 2 paragraphs ago.
