My sense of self worth has deteriorated to an all time low. As i sit here next to people who are finishing their lab reports which are due in a week while mine have not even been started i am wondering if

Marcus, don't give up on yourself so easily man. You're a smart dude, and you have more work ethic than i do. Its just like everyone always says, don't over analyse it. Chances are you didn't fail your exam, but even if you did don't beat yourself up about it. But its good to see you are positive about whats happening next. Just remember that you have to sacrifice your social life for other causes sometimes, even if you hate it.

Btw, self worth has nothing to do with how hard you work. As long as you get it done in the end, its all good. Self worth is purely and internal thing, its not based on anything outside your head. You are worth what you think you are worth, nothing more and nothing less.

Anyway, don't stress out. I'm kinda feeling the pinch at the moment with the horrendous amount of work i still have left to do, despite seemingly having worked a crapload already. But its a challenge, one that i feel i am up to. I'm just going to savour my leisure time and i know im going to be laughing when this semester is over.

never sacrifice your social life, people skills and life skills are so much more important than your career =)
