Really? Are you in college or high school still? I don't remember. It's so easy to be anonymous and invisible in college, without even trying, or it meaning you're uncool or unsociable or something.

Man, I would give up a lot to have another shot at college. Girls at that age don't have any pressure to get married and just want the D. Also, you don't have to worry about sexual harassment complaints.

Truth.

I don't know what kind of dunces you hung out with in college but all the girls I knew strove for straight As

Oh yeah, chicks love us dudes who do work instead of going to douchey frat parties all the time! I'm just draped in women.

That was my favorite part of college until I started applying for grad school and they told me I need 2 professor references and none of mine remember me whoops

Well, yeah, I wouldn't recommend it for every class. I was just saying, if you want to lay low, especially early on in a new class or if you have bad anxiety, it's super easy. I usually went to my classes, was pretty much anonymous for the first few days unless I had a bunch of bros in the class that would cause ruckus from day one, and then decided which classes I liked enough and felt strongly enough about to join heavily in the discussions in and which classes I was just going to keep my head down and get it over with in. I've gotten a few nice recommendations from past professors and plenty of past professors who also wouldn't remember who I am. I think that's the right mix. I never wanted to be that kid who raised their hand in every class and asked a lot of questions and always participated, or that kid who was such a slacker/ghost that they never made a good impression on any of their professors at all.

That was always my problem from high school all the way through college I was the slacker that wouldn't fail cause I actually am a smart person, I would be a wise a.... guy and then get As

My professor called me a back dweller I always say in the back acted like I was aloof and not paying attention and I'd get Bs and act surprised

Having the last period of the day free is nice. Picked myself up a coffee on the way home.

I seriously need to stop rationalizing my poor decisions, specifically not going to class last night or today because I'm allowed 2 per class and I'm probably not on the roster anyway. (Registered late.) But I make these excuses telling myself it won't happen again but it always happens, just like last semester, totally agree with Bob with the new class thing, never been more intimidated with my life, seems like I can't do anything right lately.

I would offer my advice but I'd be a total hypocrite. Social anxiety and rationalization of poor decision making runs deep in SFW.

I always used warm weather as an excuse not to go to class that was always bad spring semester when review time was normally nice days

Depends on my psyche. Some moments I'm really shy and quiet. Others, I'm Tyler Durden.
