Day 24

I’m still depressed.

I really just want to disappear and not return to my current life. I’m sick and tired of being lonely, and the monotony of everyday is literally killing me.

Today in my Latin American Politics class I received my annotated bibliography back.  To my shock and dismay I received a 6/10 score; that’s a 60%.  I was extremely disappointed, as I had worked really hard to complete everything to the best of my ability. It feels like such a slap in the face.  Apparently four of my sources were not from scholarly journals, even though I had used the library’s search engine. The professor, Prof. T, has given us until Monday to make the necessary corrections.  The highest grade I can now receive is a 9/10.  I really want to do well because this bibliography is worth 10% of our final grade.

I’ve decided that I’m not going to attend any more of my “On the Ball” gym classes. It just causes too much stress and anxiety, and I’ve decided it just isn’t worth all of that. I’m going to take an “F” in the class and take “Fitness Walking” again in the Spring. I’m sure my advisor is going to love hearing that…but oh well.

The one bright spot in my day was my Biology class.  We went digging for dirt and fossils at a place 20 minutes from campus. I loved getting dirty and looking for bones and sharks’ teeth.
