Can you teach me that? I get soooo hard on myself. I was devastated when I got a B on a quiz a couple of weeks ago. I missed two questions for crying out loud! And when I found out I got a high C on a paper last semester, oh my heavens, was I in a state for a while. I never blame teachers, only myself. My math test was harder last week than I thought it would be, and I got 1/10th of a point less than an A. I should not have been as disappointed as I was. :/ I always blame myself for not working hard enough or paying attention.

Are you a libra?

It doesn't surprise me that you have similar problems -- you are often far too hard on yourself.

Hey. You aren't 40 yet are you? (I'm almost there.) My friend Mz K-- just posted something you should read in her journal:

It's about how women become more fabulous and confident after 40. It might give you a smile.

I'm Pisces. I never used to care about grades and stuff, but now I do, for some reason.

That was so funny I was laughing out loud with tears running down my face.
