post-tuition tired syndrome.
There is a difference between conscious pride and unconscious pride. Unconscious is mostly about the pride of self, the brimming elation from a sweat off a brow, or the feeling of anger when you're not allowed to reach your potential. Its a pride that comes from a realization, or suppression of self. Conscious pride, however, is the creation of a self apart from yourself, an inflation of the metaphorical 'head'.

Tuition, therefore, is a subject of debate on pride for me. My conscious pride against tuition before (ie. "I can handle studies without tuition) is not without cost, time lost, what 5 weeks to midyears. After putting aside that pride to save my grades, my unconscious pride is being realized. I can do this. I have the potential to. And its much, much easier to see.

Hmm. Not bad.
