no consequences for my actions

[ambivalent_thespian]

so, I did no work for my English class this semester. Like I fully stopped trying after midterms. But in the final week and a half, I spent that time doing the final essay that was supposed to be done over seven weeks. Ended up with a 93 on the paper, despite there being glaring issues, such as my thesis being inaccurate, and a low but passing grade in the class. and it was like that for most of high school.

it's rlly hard to feel the need to change when things work out like this

i was like this in school too. it's part of why i have such a low work ethic. i was a genuinely smart person, but I just had trouble understanding things all the time and I had no motivation to do anything, even when forced to. all the time, authority figures at school just let me get away with stuff because I was nice, obviously somewhat intelligent despite low grades, and I was quiet and didn't disrupt class. i sometimes wish someone had pushed me harder. it makes it feel like nothing I do matters, even if it affects me positively.
