Well, just got a biology sheet back.
I said "Cladograms can help show you when certain species of Pokemon evolved."
_{I definitely wasn't playing Shuffle, Rumble World and PMD2 while doing homework again.}

Getting a bit paranoid over an upcoming test I have to do where I need to memorize 46 Japanese hiragana characters and write them all down in order to pass. The frustrating part is that if I get 39 or less it's an automatic F grade, despite how it would technically be a B- in normal circumstances. This isn't even my final in Japanese class, (That's a two minute speech which I am more confident in doing as I've practiced) yet I'm still getting very nervous that I'll fail the test as I've come so far. Even with studying it's proving to be very stressful...

There's nothing that makes me angrier than unfair grading. I can't wait until I get to a class that uses class percent curves lol

Memorizing hiragana was actually slightly therapeutic for me, so maybe it's your studying habit that's stressing you? There's so many things online designed to help you remember them all so it couldn't hurt to shake it up a bit. Try and find a game or pictograms to help you remember the shapes, if that's what helps you learn easier

Yeah my teacher helped me with some ideas on better studying, and now I know about thirty of them a week before the test, so I think I can do it if I work harder. Hoping it goes well next week.

...Though sadly it seems today wasn't that good of a day for me either, mainly due to me having to stay an hour after math class was over to finish a test we took today (It took me forever because the rest of my class do not do any work at all, instead preferring to talk extremely loudly and make stupid noises while I'm actually trying my hardest to focus. The Teacher does nothing because she's brand new and is scared the students will call her "mean" if she asks her advisor to watch the class. Yes, that's the reason she gave me when I expressed my frustration), and hearing the news on the video game side of things that Lufia II is never coming to the Wii U Virtual Console because Nintendo won't allow Natsume to release any more SNES games, which REALLY made me sad because the Lufia series is another great franchise that I like a lot and want to try out more games from. (I've only played the GBC Lufia so far)

Here's hoping next week things get better for me at least

I need to stop valuing myself on whatever grades I get. I thought I stopped doing this.

[MaestroUGC]

That's never going to happen for as long as you're a slave to Academia.

[Hero of Trains]

Nebbles, don't worry about it. I know that we value you for who you are, and all of your friends probably do too. Grades can always be improved. 
Also, just make sure that you aren't setting unnecessarily high expectations for yourself. That just sets you up for being disappointed. 
You can't stop evaluating yourself, but you have to try to make it productive, even if that seems hard sometimes. Use your bad grade as a way to get better, instead of a way to sulk or procrastinate (not saying you're doing any of those things, but I do them, so...)
Basically, just do your best, try hard, and look for help if you need it.

[Maelstrom]

My Calc 2 final is going to be the death of me.

[mikey]

have fun.

I don't understand why everyone makes such a big deal out of tests though, like 3/4 of the time they're easier than the rest of the class
