Wake up call

Well I'm a complete failure. I guess Calc 3 tests tend to make people feel like that. And yes it is my fault, not caring about the class, thinking that I know the material. I tried to study last night, tried to pound this vector calculus into my head. It's not an easy thing to understand you know? Why is it that I understand everything that my teacher does in class, yet as soon as I leave the room I don't have a clue what I'm doing? Why is it that I have no motivation for math anymore, especially since it had been my favorite subject for so long? I guess it's not fun anymore when you don't understand what's going on. I'm estimating that I got about 40-50 points out of 100 on that test I just got back from. But you know, maybe this is just what I needed. I had that "I just don't care" attitude about this test last night, and look what happened. Never again shall I think that way.

I used to always feel like you do. Ahhh, the old high school calculus days... days of playing games on my favorite snipermavs calculator...getting my pencils/pens/books/whatever-else-happened-to-be-in-the-way pushed off the desk...
