Because i hurt.

I hate failures. I'm not really used to it and I don't want to. Ever.

Today, I got my first failing grade in anatomy. I didn't expect it and now it's breaking my heart. I feel like I'm such a failure and a disappointment for my parents. I hate this feeling. Even if people tell me that it's going to be okay, it's kind of hard for me to believe.

My dad has been working for as long as I can remember to give us a good education. I know I'm being dramatic here but he has some health issues and I feel, especially right now, like I'm being a burden. People might say I'm being overlydramatic, and maybe, I am but it just hurts so bad. So here I am.. venting.

I've never really been grade-conscious. Low grades were never really a concern for me. But, everything changed since I entered med school. I've come to realize that my old study habits(i.e. listen during lectures and only cram few hours during the exams) are not working anymore. I have to really stay up late, give up going home on the weekends before evaluation exams. Most of the time it works, but right now, I feel like my efforts were useless.
