    I'd my final exam today which is Physics paper 1 and now I'm incredibly disappointed because I didn't do well in my exam especially physics. I don't know how to tell my parents but I told them that I'll retake this exam if I get a bad result so I'm still disappointed. I'm so sad even though I tried to smile today but :blobsob::blobsob::blobsob::blobsob:

    I lack of motivation right now and I feel like I can't move on.:cry::cry::cry:

    Give me some motivation or some jokes perhaps.:cry::cry:

    here's my stab at ur situation as a uni grad student

    EXAM ARE THERE NOT TO TEST UR INTELLIGENCE BUT UR MEMORY CAUSE FK SCHOOLS
    but that aside exams also test how u take in failure IRL cause fail an exam wont kill u but in the real world failure can often mean losing A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES

    U gots to look at not the failure itself but how to react to it how u will use it to fuel urself moving forward

    u gonna let this inconsequential trip mess u up or do u USE "THE FK UR EXAM AND FK U PROF IMMA FKING PASS AND FKING FORTGOT UR STUPID FKING ASS " and move forward~

    ps. also learn to curse a lot its actually pretty stress relieving ~

    I flunked two major papers before graduation, got a retest and still got a job.

    Don't worry that much, just don't kill yourself and everything will work out.

    It's silly to believe that one bad examination will have any significant impact on your life at all. Cheer up! If it can't ruin your life why let it ruin your day?

    One could even say that your body lacks the force necessary to create a state of motion. :blobpeek:

    on a more serious note cheer up, take this as a chance to evaluate your future options and decide what you can do with your capabilities.
    if physics is a particularly difficult subject for you then check the jobs you are interested in and see which ones require a solid understanding of physics and save yourself some heartache later in life.

    Cry it out then move on with how you feel. It's ok to live in the moment but don't freeze your feelings to be stuck on those depressed, sad mood. Talking it out to someone who's willing to listen to you rant a bit helps decently too. Have a good day and smilee.

    3-steps Non-Foolproof-Guide to Recovering from a Deadly Blow:
    (Because you're certainly not a fool. You're cool, yo. Gotta boost your self-confidence from time to time.)

    1. Think of your three favorite fictional (!) characters. Think about all the horrible, indescribable things that happened to them. About the unfairness of it all. You'll automatically feel like a failed grade isn't that big of a deal! (possible side effects: being even more down because you've now been reminded that life sucks)

    2. Listen to musical comics with dark humor. My recommendation would be Bo Burnham. (possible side effects: being even more down because you've now been reminded that humans suck)

    3. Remember that people who never graduated school still manage to "turn around the wheel", because nothing is final, nothing is definite, nothing is ultimate (when in doubt: use Google, just like I did for the sake of varying adjectives) - except for death. So as long as you're alive, nothing can stop you from pursuing what you want to. Didn't get enough points in an exam to do your dream job? If you really want that job, you'll find other opportunities. Honestly, one physics grade does not and/or should not hold the power to ruin your beautiful smile! (possible side effects: you're either born in an environment that makes it impossible for you to pursue your dreams (aka being born in extreme poverty, without means to survive daily life, etc.) or you just slipped on the slime trail that my last sentence left)
    Happy random Wednesday in June.

    Shit happen in life no matter how well prepared you are. The key is to not let it stop you. Stepped on a shit, scrape it off and keep on walking.

    I don't think that one exam matters too much in the long run though, especially if you haven't failed the class and don't need to retake.

    You can try asking for a retake. Or, you could just cry your heart out to your parents for comfort? :blob_tilt:

    perfection is unattainable. if you strive for perfection, be prepared to be always disappointed.

    How's that for motivation?
