Doing well in school

This week has blazed by quickly, it’s been all about school and skating with my friends.

Since third grade, when I moved from Sacramento, I’ve preformed pretty badly in school. It isn’t that I don’t pay attention in class, I enjoy just about all subjects, it’s more that I have this problem with getting my work to the point where I can turn it in. Because of this, and my added health problems, you can imagine that I have been getting less than satisfactory grades.

But things seem to be changing.

My Progress Report arrived in the mail over the weekend (The weekend at the beginning of the week, not this weekend). It was the bad, misleading kind of Progress Report. The kind that only arrive when you have an F in a class and only list the F. No other classes or your progress in them, just the F class. That was an uncomfortable weekend. x_x

On Monday or Tuesday I got the actual Progress Report, with my 3 shining B’s, and the F. The B’s may as well have not been on the paper, because my parents still concentrated on the F: “You’re messing around again, aren’t you!?” “No wonder you say you have such a small workload, you aren’t doing anything!”. (I do most of my work in class..)

Anyway, by the end of the week I worked the F up to a C+ and should hopefully be a B- soon. I wonder what I’m doing right now that I hadn’t been doing before. My Mom suggests I’m getting more mature (I need a laughing emote for this).
