Prideful

Last semester I failed one class and it seems like the only people to pass that class cheated. I knew a lot of cheating happened in the first exam yet I still didn't cheat the second time around. Now part of me wants to say "Screw this!!" and just cheat on the exam the next time I do it but the other half of me won't even consider that as an option. I guess you can say I'm too prideful for that, I want to pass that class with my own merit and honor. I want to be able to say I did it on my own and I didn't take the shameful easy way out. I may be a fool, but a fool that stays true to his principles.
