First semester regret. (b9)


With midterms just being released, I can reflect ton my first semester at college. So far I have 3 classes with C's and one class with a D. I need to work on all of them. I think B averages for the classes can be achieved if I work hard enough for it. The only problem is, I lack motivation. I don’t have any drive to complete the task's I am given. So far, I don’t really like college. It just seems like High School all over again. I am forced to take classes that I don’t want to, I get tons of homework each night, and I have to drive thirty minutes to class every day. I thought that college would be a new start. I expected to do a lot of homework as well as I expected to drive a lot. But my main thought was that I could take what classes I wanted to. I thought that I could take classes that inspire me and help me achieve certain goals. But I'm still forced to take a language, meet mathematic standards, and meet writing standards. In the work that I want to do, I am never going to need to know how to divide a compounding function by a variable function. So why am I learning it?

                If I have any goals for the rest of the semester, it is to finish it. Because right now, I don’t enjoy college. I don’t know if I'll come back next semester, or if I'll take a semester off. But whatever choice I make, I plan on sticking with it. It's going to be my decision. People keep telling me that I have to go to college. But I'm not being forced to go. So I'll finish the semester and see where life leads me after that.
