oh yah fs, just thought it might be part of the problem- i've never really bought into grades so it's hard for me to relate to the sentiment also, sorry if it was callous! ^_^;7
oh okay lol, thanks for the input and no worries. personally i do love what i'm studying (why else would i learn more on my own time?) i just also highk got academic brainworms. its difficult sometimes to channel that passion when there's so much being imposed on you whether by urself or others (profs, family expectations)T_T
