Wednesday's Child

Dear Givers of Knowledge,

I respectfully request that you all chill the fuck out.

I'm trying, okay? Honestly trying. Last sememter, all those A's looked so pretty lined up in a row...I really want to see that again. You People are making that goal terribly difficult. Six papers would have been fine. Eight would have been pushing it, but I'd have dealt. Ten? That's just too damn much. I get it--you want to make me all that I can be, or some other bullshit like that. Now lay off already.

It seems like the harder I try, the more you keep putting on me. 

Stop it.

Anxiously yours,

Ashleigh
