4.0. That is just a number. It is the only number I have known thus far at Drake. I think I need to come to the realization that it is no longer going to be my number.
This semester I began my upper-level classes and it is hitting me hard. Typically I have one class that is borderline A-B but I pull it off in the end. This semester, I have three classes where I am borderline at the moment. I am not sure I can pull this one off.
I think I need to grow up and understand that there is so much more to college than working my butt off and getting that perfect grade. I think my job, friendships, experience, and community efforts are much more important than a perfect GPA.
Now, if I can hold to this revelation by the time I get my final grades, I will be great. Otherwise, I think I am going to have a breakdown when I realize I will no longer be a "perfect" student.
