First semester is almost gone!

  Wow! This first semester is flying by. It feels like just last week I started school. At the start of the first semester I was pretty nervous. I knew it wasn't going to be anything like high school. Once I started getting work from all my classes, I began to get overwhelmed. I didn't know how I was going to manage all the free time that I had and I didn't think I was going to handle all the work that I had to do. I started thinking of ways that I could manage my time and work and I came up with writing everything on a to do list as i get the work that way I will know what has to get done. This also helps me focus on the task thats on hand.

   The goal that I have for myself this semester is to make sure that i get my work done and to learn how to manage the college life. I also plan to pass my classes with a B or higher but with just a B I'll be happy. With being half way through in the semester, I feel like I'm meeting somewhat of my goals. I think I could push myself a little harder. One class that I'm doing really well in is my English. But I do have one setback and that is my history class. I feel like I can push myself when we have our take home test every week. I think I'm going to find a friend to tutor me.

   But overall I feel like I'm having an okay first semester. I still think there is room for improvement. So for the rest of the second half I'm going to make sure I push myself.
