Bugs in my brain

I am beating myself up for getting 4 out of 5 on a piece of assessment for Creative Writing - an elective, no less - worth 5% as well as giving myself headaches and losing sleep over a draft of my final piece that is due next week.

This is the same mentality that destroyed my art and I don't know how to overcome it. The huge amount of pressure I put on myself to excel in journalism resulted in what will probably be my first fail at uni.

Am I a tortured artist yet? ._.

=| You did well! Really.

Your will to excel is admirable but don't beat yourself up about it, really. I dunno. I was pretty okay with my film for experimental; it's worth 70%; then someone showed our whole class one of the films from last year which only got a 6 (out of 7) and we all pretty much wanted to die/quit uni and go for some drinks >_>

of course, quitting won't really get us anywhere.
