Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow

My dad keeps continually crushing my hopes and dreams with his logic. He told me today that if after I graduated I wanted to move back in there rent-free and save up money for a year or two until I could move, they would buy me a new car. Honestly, I like my car. It's a great car and it takes me places. God knows, it does. That car loves me and I

If you take the class again it'll wipe out the old grade from your transcript.

Just fyi, if you want to not suck anymore.

This icon has made my day, week, month, and lifetime.

i know you can take it again and it won't hurt your GPA, but it'll still show up on your transcript that you took it and fucked up.

nu-uh, UAB's newer policy is that because the student body fails at life, when they retake classes it voids out the previous one. Up to like, three tries. After that people should get the idea that they shouldn't take said class. UAB realized their non-medical passing rate is deplorable and decided to go for that. And it gives them more money as students desperately try to get a fake education from SHADY ASS UAB.

If it makes you feel better, I've failed two classes and I'm doing okay. Me not as dumb as they are think me am.

That storm was overrated. It started out with all the gush and whoosh of an entertaining evening, and then it totally just died on me. I was terribly disappointed.

i'm just worried about what my dad's gonna do if I fail it. Like, to my parents, I'm this artistic super-genius or some shit, so it's going to like, completely blow their minds that I could possibly fail a class. Then dad gets all pissed off and it's all over and I'll never hear the end of it. So if I ever fuck anything up again it's all about how I failed that one time and how I'm not even trying and blah blah blah you suck.

and that storm did pretty much suck.

If they get mad just throw your hands and say, "Grades Schmades, I am an artistic super-genius." I couldn't pass an art class at UAB if my life depended on it, but I still have oil pastel drawings scattered around my living room floor. Your drawings, that icon - you've got it. You don't need a professor's stamp of approval.

Besides, sometimes it's good to fail. There's always a good lesson stuck somewhere in the wreckage.

No, that first sentence was not a typo. You should physically throw your hands at your father. I'll leave the details of how to go about doing that up to you
