Grades

I’m just going to come out and say it… does anyone else think that college is crazy hard? And by this I mean in comparison to high school. In high school I would always put my homework off until the night before (or even the class period before) and I always seemed to slip by. It’s not that I didn’t pull my weight in high school, I think I did, but I also think that people had a lot lower of expectation. In high school I feel like I got baby-sitted, and now I’m expected to be responsible… WHAT?! In all seriousness though, college has been a great growing experience for me. I used to rely on others for everything: to remind me to do my homework, to cook, and especially to do my laundry! Oh man I miss not doing laundry. Growing up is hard, but it’s worth it. I like this more independent version of me.

So, in order to prove how responsible I am, I am adding to my bucket list a goal to get a 4.0 GPA (one semester). I didn’t do half-bad my first semester here, but I know I can push myself harder. Ideally I would like to have a lot of semesters with straight A’s but let’s start small eh?
