Bubbles

So, the last week of school which means actually attending classes which consequently leads to receiving marks. To. Be. Honest. This hasn't been the best semester/term for me and I'm quite sure that the same could be said for a lot of people in one - if not multiple - subjects. Take Maths, for example. A handful of people aced that exam. A few more did considerably well. A lot more did average and a few more died in a metaphorical sense. I'm not sure how other people went but I'm sure feeling pretty shit about my mark. If it makes anyone feel any smarter, I got a D for Knowledge and Procedures. Yeah, I told my parents about it. Yeah, they gave a lecture about it and yeah, I don't feel so good about it nor am I glorifying the fact that I got a shitty mark (who would?). 

Just because you fucked up this exam or screwed this assignment real bad doesn't make you a bad person. You failed once, but that doesn't mean you failed your life. This is one tiny thing in a big ass life. We're 16, some 15 or 17. Hell, we have 80 - 90 years to live, so this is gonna be one minute mistake in your life. If your parents are gonna get pissed, let them get pissed. Take a little pain. After all, pain is temporary. It might last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but it will eventually subside and something else will take its place. If anything, call it experience. Call it conditioning. Give that thing you call pain a name so that you can take it rather than avoiding it. 

For anything that you do, no matter how embarrassing, no matter how terrible, 99.9999999% of the world's population really don't give a crap. You just happened to know that 0.0000001%.

And if you're ever feeling like you're the tiniest, most insignificant piece of s***, read this and remember it. Maybe you could tell this to someone next time they're feeling down: 

You're not small. You're not merely a microscopic mote floating around in space. You exist in a magnitude of size where you can simultaneously appreciate the vastness of the universe and the minuteness of molecules.

An accepted estimate for the number of stars in the observable universe falls on the order of 1022. There are around 1027 atoms in your body. You are 100,000 universes of atoms, shaped by hundreds of millions of years of evolution, who can marvel at your own consciousness. You are awesome.

Overall marks:

Maths: C/D (expected)

English: B 

French Extension: A

IT: B

Music: A

Drama: A/High B (expected)

So that's my report. Feel free to post some of your epic achievements in the Cbox. It's being taken over by a bunch of Anons...

Oh. And. Remember. There is no angry way to say bubbles. Try it.
