Problems I wish I had

Issues I wish I had

My incredibly smart friend was venting about a drop in her math grade. She was so animated that we assumed it had plummeted by over 20 points. We asked her, “What’s your grade now?” and she replied, “A 97☹️.” We all just walked away shaking our heads.

I can’t even be mad—I respect it! Just think about it: being so successful in school that a 97 makes you feel disappointed.

  1. It’s impressive how high your friend’s standards are for herself! It shows a real commitment to her education and a desire to constantly improve. It can be frustrating to be so close to perfection, but it’s awesome that she takes her grades seriously. Honestly, it’s a reminder that everyone has their own struggles, even if they seem minor from the outside. Kudos to her for striving for excellence!
