Be not afraid, for the forest nymphs have taught me how to pleasure a women.

So Flood...here's the deal...I'm really good at a -blam!- ton of stuff.

I've been told I'm the best musician people know, I'm working my way up to being an amazing diver and it's looking good, I'm a great cook, I'm pretty solid at just about any sport, I'm a good driver, I'm a rifle marksman(used to be a pistol marksman too but lack of practice and recent hand injuries stripped me of that), I'm a great swimmer, etc...long story short, I can do a bunch of -blam!- and do it pretty damn good.

But it seems that no matter what I do, I can't be a good student.

I mean I got to Uni. A pretty decent one too(graduated highschool with an alright 3.45 GPA and a 27 ACT)...
But I'm struggling a lot in college and it seems like being a good student just isn't something that comes to me like everything else.
So I'm wondering, why is it that I can do all this -blam!- and have all these skills but I just can't seem to bring in good grades. Right my Uni GPA is around a 2.4 which is pitiful.
And I just can't seem to raise it.
Any ideas?

Never make me angry. I am a Hitman and I can easily find you and take you out.

This is kinda hard to believe you know...

If you're so good at all that then why do you complain?

You are a great hands on learner, but learning in a classroom setting isn't your thing.

You can't be good at everything OP but keep trying to do better in school.

A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

Maybe academics just isn't your thing.

Ever though of an apprenticeship?

Great minds discuss ideas

Average minds discuss events

Small minds discuss people

Learn how to study properly. It could be tough, but definitely rewarding.

Should look at doing an apprenticeship scheme which is more hands on learning - other than that your going to have to sacrifice a few things to become more dedicated to college and develop learning techniques

Because it's frustrating as -blam!-.
It's like I can do anything I want, except be a good student.



And as far as the post about relationships...nope not that I can't be in one...it's a long story but let's just say that the timing wasn't right.
