remember that Big Assignment™ I was working so hard on last week? got it graded today and apparently i got 0 out of 200 points...0%... i am... heartbroken. discouraged. overwhelmed. so so so so sad. I really felt good about this paper and even felt confident in my work. but, I guess it's not what she wanted :(

I usually wouldn't post failures like these but I decided to go ahead and post it so y'all can see IT'S OKAY TO FAIL. IT HAPPENS.

I'm going to call my professor, figure out how to improve my grade, and try again. I will not let this bring me down and I will work even harder to advocate for myself. if I have to rewrite all 10 pages, I will.

but tonight? tonight I'm going to let myself be sad about it. I'll self soothe and escape from reality. maybe I'll even cry. but tomorrow, I'll pick myself up and fight again. (ง'̀-'́)ง
