During my first semester at college I was overwhelmed by the amount of work that was given. the table in which i do my homework would bend its legs from the weight of the readings I put on it each weekend. i will not lie that I had taken senior year as a time of relaxation and peace of mind, of course I had no idea it was that calm before the storm. Sleepless nights and tiresome weekends ensued, free time became a memory. I began to sadden every time a new week started and untouched projects remained on the table would depress me and often made me want to quit college.

The day I woke up on top of my half read paper,surrounded by cups of coffee I decide it was time to get serious. The first thing I did was organize my schedule and tap in my free time between classes, rather than playing table tennis or pool I would go to the library and read my work. I began to use highlighters and small notes, so instead of reading papers once more for tests or thought pieces I could just re-read the highlighted parts rather than starting once more. I began seeking help from teachers and clearing questions about class parts that i did not fully understand. this lead to better understanding of the assignments and improve my preparation and grades for and from tests.

this gave me positive results. Good grades on tests and chances to participate in class. All and all i am glad that my new schedule has served me well. my worries of college being too hard are not gone but now i know that I can handle with whatever comes my way and this story is proof of it.
