A Little Lie About My Grades

I recently had my parents over for the weekend, and I wanted to impress them with how well things are going at college. So when they asked me about my grades, I didn't mention that I got a C in one of my classes. Instead, I said everything was A's and B's, which isn't entirely true but felt necessary at the moment. It's not like it's something big enough to change my life or anything, just a small fib to keep up appearances for a bit longer. Looking back, it feels petty, but also oddly comforting that everyone still thinks I'm doing great.
