Not every semester in your college career can be a good one academically, and let me tell you, this is just not  my semester. Never in my academic career have I struggled this much in one semester and in more than one class.

At the start of this semester I was feeling really well balanced and I really felt like this semester was going to be great one. But that went downhill, and fast. My classes are far more difficult, personal and social issues decided to come around, I’m extremely tight in the money department, pretty much anything that could go wrong, did. Now that the semester is coming to an end, I’m scrambling. Because of all the other things going on in my personal life, my grades have taken a hit. So due to that fact, I am becoming extremely stressed about doing well on my finals. I’m finding it difficult to even get myself out of bed in the morning. It’s a vicious spiral. I do poorly, so I get frustrated, and when I’m frustrated I’m not putting my best foot forward, and when I’m not doing that, I continue to do poorly.

So my focus right now is to get myself back on track. I’m trying to already prepare for my finals in hopes that I will do well, in order to help my grades that have suffered. I’m really nervous for what is to come of this semester, and then I’m also nervous about a job for this summer. I also applied for an internship within the University, so I’m anxiously awaiting to see if I will be offered that position. I’m sure I’m not the only student struggling, but keep your fingers crossed for me, as well as anyone else in a similar situation. I’m going to need it.

As always,

Go Hawks.
