Abstract
Brief excerpt from interview: I was more academically inclined just to make sure I acquired the grades that I was aiming for... and if that required me to write some assignments, then I would do it. [The assignments] didn't necessarily de-motivate me It's not discouraging because I understand that writing is beneficial. It helps me enhance my skills, especially if I want to pursue graduate school, but it didn't necessarily motivate me either.
