Deneb, I think over my own college experience, and say forgive yourself for skipping a class. Be compassionate to yourself. I'm glad that I eventually learned to be compassionate to my college self when I look back, though I often felt like I was a loser at the time. I was lucky to eventually work with a brilliant and wonderful therapist back then, and this was her advice.Did you skip because of your mood? Maybe you needed a break? Or maybe not ready for class that day? Too full of a schedule? Or maybe you just don't like that class? There's usually no rule against dropping a class if it's not to your taste or the instructor isn't one you like so well. Perfectly respectable, too. I imagine it's still early in your semster.
