How would you rate your life with a letter grade (A, B, C, D) along these dimensions? Why?

Physical

B-: I've always been extremely thin, even when I try to gain weight. For the last few months, I've been trying to eat more and exercise, and I'm starting to put on a little bit of muscle.

Mental (academic or otherwise)

A: I'm doing alright at uni, recommendation/GPA wise. Taking a challenging courseload this semester.

Emotional/Psychological

D: Not great right now. I don't like to admit it in real life, but I'm almost always depressed and most of the time can cover it up, constantly joke, act happy/silly/whatever. I'm bipolar and am currently more down than usual.

Relational

D: Also not great. My only close friend is outside of the country. I'm no longer hanging out with most of the people I used to consider friends, since I never really felt welcome around them, and I've become the butt of many of their jokes (was recently used as a counterexample in argument against the position that white men are the standard of male attractiveness, since I am white and apparently horrendously ugly... I figured that I don't really want to hang around to hear that brought up again).

Romantic/Sexual

F: Have no romantic prospects, and I don't expect I ever will. I'd like to say that I've come to terms with that, but I am disappointed about my romantic failure. Since it's not something I'm well-suited for, I suppose that I shouldn't really be bothered over it, though.

Financial/Professional

A-: I'm a student and don't have financial worries now. Career prospects are uncertain, but not awful.


Being a bit of a whiney bitch right now, but overall I can't complain. I'd probably say I have a decent life, all things considered.
