My degree.
Why I should finish my degree:
* I can.
* It used to interest me, till I got lazy and disheartened.
* I'm smart enough to pass with a good grade if I want to.
* I obviously want a law degree, or I wouldn't have applied.
* No one else in my family has an A level that I know of, let along a degree.
* It a good solid start to build my life on.
* It'll enable me to support a family.
* If I didnt go to uni.. what else would I do? End up like 'those people'.
* I've only got into this situation by not settling/making solid friendships at Uni.
* It'll be a worthwhile experience.
* I have no 'good' reason not to do it.
* It'll enable me to improve the world, little by little.
* I can wear a suit.
* Why shouldn't I have a law degree?
* I'm perfectly capable (however many tears and tantrums I throw & say I'm not)
* It'll help me grow as a person.
* I've nearly finished my 1st year.
My plan:
To scrape through this year the best I can, pull my finger out next year, make time for socials/societies/people and get a fucking good degree.
How I'm going to make this happen:
From now until the exams, I'm going to spend 1 hour MINIMUM reading/making notes/learning/making an effort to understand on one of the three exams topic areas EVERY weekday. Thats a reasonable start.. considering I do NOTHING at the moment because it makes me feel useless when it doesnt click.
The lesson I've learned:
If I get in over my head, I'm screwed. I CAN bail myself out of this if I do it before its too late and its the exam week.
Lets face it, 3 days of exams. Its nothing.
I just need to retain the knowlege till then.
Achieveable. Right?!
Breathe. Stop stressing. It won't help.
