Although I love the process of learning more than anything in this world, I swear at times I find myself on the brink of giving up. I finally heard back from my adviser about my complaint concerning my instructor�s behavior and grading system and let me tell you I am still very upset. Sure on one hand I agree that he is right that she was placing me on a pedestal but on another I feel as though she was merely covering her own ass.

This woman told my adviser and his supervisor that I was this �wonderful student� that I bring wonderful things to our class discussions but when it came to the grade she gave me it was because of 1. spelling and grammer and 2 because of lack of references. Well personally I feel that�s about the biggest bull shit answer I�ve ever heard as I have always given the answers I�m given and she never counted me off before. Matter a fact last class I had with her she gave me perfect scores which to me signals a defect on her part not mine. It says �RED LIGHT� personal dilemma! Not academic related.

Basically this whole ordeal has taken the fun and enjoyment right out of my otherwise love of this class. I use to wake up, jump on-line and spend my entire waking hours working� now I have to force myself to do it and I feel like it�s a chore instead of a enjoyable past time like it was before. I don�t know what I should do.

On one hand I think I should with draw and take a �W�, retake the class later with someone else she don�t screw up my 4.0 and on the other hand I don�t want to allow this woman to force me to back down. I just keep telling myself to breath and think about things before I jump. All I know is points can make the difference between getting into the next school and if this woman is doing what it feels like she is doing then I definitely don�t need this�
