Sit Down At Your Desk.

another shot of my desk at sunset + the view

i miss the shadows and light so much 😩 i still can’t believe i got the chance to live in this apartment last year, it worked itself out so well it felt fated

i love to learn. unfortunately my brain doesn’t like to remember

so I got into grad school today with my shitty 2.8 gpa and the moral of the story is reblog those good luck posts for the love of god

You should never feel embarrassed about asking questions in classes. There are no wrong questions, and your professors are supposed to be patient enough to answer them. It doesn’t matter if you’re shy, go ahead and make your question. You can also email your professors or you could use their office hours to ask them. Besides, your questions can also help other people from the class who might have the same doubts.
