ABCD and TFT

I'm taking a summer class
called Church and Community Leadership.
It focuses on Asset-Based Community Development
and Training for Transformation,
which are community organizing/development/building techniques.
The class is intense -- 9am-3pm everyday this week.
And that's it.
We have a paper due next week,
but we only have the one week of classes.
We are reading about one book a night,
and I am exhausted.

I'm getting a pedicure on Saturday.

Let It Be

Grades are in (mostly)
and I am pretty much a B student.
I'm cool with that.
I do pretty much B work.
Or if I do A work, I turn it in late.
(Seriously, I got a B in class where I turned in EVERY paper late.)

I am academically slightly above average.
That's not how smart I am.
That's how much I put into it.
Actually, I frequently put in below average effort
but I do it well.

I so do not stress about grades.
In college, we competed over who got an A on which assignment --
not outright competition, but we competed nonetheless.
And now, I am more cognizant of needing a balanced life.
And I get Bs.
