It’s already been 3 months; it seems like just yesterday was the first day of class. Well, not really, that’s just a figure of speech, but I do remember orientation day so clearly. To be honest, college hasn’t really lived up to any of my expectations. I wanted some crazy dorming experience, an intense love, and more time for myself, instead, everything seems to be the opposite. Lived alone in my own apartment, just got out of a relationship, and been so deprived of sleep I’ve been sleeping on the short 15 minute subway ride to school, sometimes even oversleeping and ending up being late to class.
Everything just seems so hectic; I know I didn’t expect anything to be easy for me, but definitely not this hard. Between work and school, I barely have time for anything else. I’m not going to say this semester went well, but it was horrible. I could think of a million more ways things could’ve been worse. If I could restart the semester, given I know what to expect now, I’m pretty sure my time management would’ve been a lot better. It’s always until the lat minute I remember something is due or if there’s an exam the next day. I am not an intentional procrastinator, but I’ve just been ao out of it. All I can hope is next semester will be better, that is if I can register for the classes I want!
