azziriaSomebody whack me upside the head, please. Because here we go again...
First Oceanography TMA. The one covering the material I started studying 6 weeks late because of all the January and February sh*t. Mark: 88%. Which is well into the Distinction grade. Comments from tutor: "Wow, what a TMA!... you have truly got to grips with even the hardest material. Great work... overall you have done brilliantly well. Well done."
BUT... I dropped some marks because of a silly mistake, a mistake I know better than to make. So instead of feeling delighted about this TMA (especially given it was a rush-through job) I feel cr*p about it.
See how STUPID this is? Because I can see how stupid this is, objectively. I HATE that I still can't shake this ridiculous way of looking at things. Gah!
Maybe I should go out and buy cake for my colleagues today and make a point of celebrating. Fight back against my brain's stupidity...
