Inspiration?
I've been wanting to write an entry in here for a while, but I wanted to write an entry that would be worthwhile for your eyeballs. If i were to stop right now, I would be so hypocritical. But seriously, anything interesting eludes me right now. I used to enjoy writing about things I've done, but now I want to write thought-provoking entries. However, I'm just not as inquisitive as I'd like to be.
OK! I've thought of something to write about!!!
About a week ago I was talking to my mother about how I am not doing the best I can in school. My academic performance has slowly declined over my first two years of college, bringing me to an all time low these past two quarters. I've had a series of bad luck the first half of this year - my eye infections/allergies, my car accident with a feisty Korean woman, emotional breakdowns, blah blah blah, that contributed to my mountain of stress that has ultimately resulted in my numerous stomach problems I have had to endure this entire summer. Don't get me wrong. I'm not trying to elicit pity from anyone, but numerous things have contributed to quite possibly one of the lowest points in my life. Lucky for me, God has brought me good company that has kept me composed, sane, and positive.
In any case, I think what began my decline of academic performance has been the lack of inspiration. Being surrounded by passionless teachers and subpar peers has seriously unmotivated me. I work hard, but minimally hard. I work hard enough to finish my reading, homework, memorizing for my tests, etc. I never take the time to fully comprehend the scope of my material and how it can be realistically applied. I just memorize and forget material for tests.
As silly as this sounds, I feel like there is so much room for my mind to grow. It's like..itching to be expanded. But...nothing has proved moving enough to motivate me towards any specific direction in business.
BRB. I"LL FINISH THIS TONIGHT.
