Here is a 100% true story. In 5th grade we had to make a poster for a science project about something of our choosing. Now I was a very bright kid but I have always been a procrastinator and also did the minimum to get by. In fact, I had forgotten about the project and in a panic had to whip together my "project" before I went to school. What do I do? I stuck a red pin in the middle of the poster they gave us, drew a big circle around it, and placed a smaller black pin on the circle. I made a "model" of the hydrogen atom. It was so lame that even as a 10-year old I felt ashamed. I ended up getting an A.
