DAMN it is getting late. College requires a TON of effort for it to go smoothly. Or as smooth as possible. Today at work, I was so tired I was dizzy. It pays off though because on my first test this semester, I got a 91.5 out of 99. Amazing what studying does for you...
Right now though, at 12:20 in the morning, I'm just knocking things off of the academic to do list simply because I won't have to do them at another time, and they won't stack up on me.
I find that I'm thinking more clearly and logically. I don't loose my trains of thought as much, and my memory is improving along with my scheduling. Scary. I'm raising a lot of questions about my assignments and such, and I know how to get the answers straight away. I'm going above and beyond the "call of duty" by making a website for the portfolio assignment, and what is REALLY scary about all this is... that I actually LIKE it. Just not the tired part.
I don't consciously set short term goals for myself, I just see things that need to get done, do them, and feel "good" about it later. There will ALWAYS be SOMETHING else to do, no matter where I am, or how old I get...
I've figured out a cool little thing to. (For me anyways...) I heard from somewhere that students are supposed to include their class name ie(ITE 150 01PR) in the subject of an email message to the professor. Every time I needed that class name, I'd log in to blackboard and get it there. I didn't know that they were on the schedule you can print out from the VCCS site.
In all, I'm worn out, but like it, and looking for more. My siblings are gonna have a REAL hard time with college... I can't wait...
