Hi Racer,
Enjoy your mini-break before the next push starts!You need to remember why you take these classes. If you want to get feedback that you know EVERYthing, and that you're perfect, then take a class you can surely ace. Take something that's so easy that you're guaranteed to get 100% on every assignment and then you won't have to worry about grades. Oh... wait. The reason why we take classes is to stretch our brains, not to confirm what we think we already know. Put yourself out there a little bit. Enjoy the stretch. It's a little uncomfortable, but you're going to feel great in a little while. You will get your grades from this session back, and it will say Racer: Psychology A
and you will see that these little neuroses about perfection are only a blemish in your mind! Don't be so self-critical! Use that A as fuel to tell yourself that not only are you (intrinsically) awesome, but you do good work, and other people think you do good work too. Let them tell you that! Listen to them. The world is trying to tell you something!Good luck with your fertility treatments. I've heard that this can be very uncomfortable. I hope you're able to get out and enjoy yourself some this weekend :)
Love,
Ll
