As the new year approaches I've started thinking about different changes I should make as my new year's resolution. I've never really had one before, and I thought this would be a good year to start.
I've realized (finally) how important school is and that it's nothing like high school. In high school I could put things off til the last minute and do a crappy job and still pull an A out of the class. I wish that were still the case for college. In some of my classes I could skip the readings and still do ok. but those aren't the classes I've had problems with...it's more with the classes with tests and quizes. you know, chemisty, biology, stats, anatomy...so this semester I'm going to actually try studying for tests prior to the night before. With ochem, 2 bio classes, and a tough soc class i need to be on top of things. 3 out of 5 afternoons i'll be in lab for 3 hours. And even after what everyone's said about having this harsh and busy of a schedule i think it'll be good for me. when i'm not in class, what do i do? nothing. and so if i'm in class and lab, i won't have time to do nothing. My worst day will be fridays, in class and lab from 8-5 with an hour break for lunch. that's going to suck. but i'll live.
One of the other things I want to change is how I live my life. Right now I don't care enough. I'm not living on the edge, but i do some stupid things sometimes. Just a simple thing like driving; I love driving, the faster the better. and when i get out on the country roads i have a need for speed. but something could happen one of these days. there are a lot of deer out here and i've come close to hitting one more than once. i love deer, and it's sad to see them on the side of the road the morning after seeing them on my way home the night before. I slowed down, I was lucky.
Another problem about how i live my life is the lack of organization. At school I seem to have all my shit together, but when I come home it's a different story. But i've been working on that ever since winter break started. My room is in the process of a make-over. And I plan on keeping it looking good, but we'll see how that goes...
That's all i've got for now...more later
