Hello! After a short hiatus, I am back and more overwhelmed than ever. This week I started school again and have officially entered into my senior year of college. Not only I am I starting my senior year this semester, but I am also taking six class (18 units), am interning, and am also an active member in a sorority at my school. Needless to say, this semester is going to be a lot for me to handle. I just finished my first official week of the fall semester and am already feeling stressed and overwhelmed.
I am definitely going to have to use my time management skills to the best of my ability this semester. I need to make sure that I can get everything done and not stress myself out by making things unnecessarily hard. While I am always fairly good at staying organized and finishing and turning in my assignments on time, I have ALWAYS struggled with procrastination. I will always submit my assignments on time, but I usually will wait until the absolute last minute to start them and cram the entire assignment into one day. This is the main issue that I want to focus on and improve this semester. Procrastination has always been one of my weaknesses and I think this semester is a very good opportunity for me to work on that and improve myself.
I am approaching this semester as a semester of growth, learning, adaptation, and preparing myself for the future. While I do have to stay a semester over because I chose to add a minor my junior year, my time in college is still very much fleeting, and I am going to enter the real world sooner rather than later. Therefore I am approaching my last few semesters as my preparation toward actual adulthood, and want to improve myself and my qualities so I am ready to handle a professional work environment.
I will talk more about school as this semester goes on, I just wanted to provide a little life update, and clear my head a little as well. I have many more school experiences to talk about and can’t wait to be able to write more.
