Trust the process

In the last couple blogs, I talked about my mixed feelings, regrets, doubts and struggles with college. In this blog I will be talking about how much I changed between these last couple blogs. First, I decided that I should focus more on school and less on people. Recently, I decided to cut off some people who aren't going to help me grow as a person. What I mean by that are the people that hold me back, such as friends who don't really care about their education or their jobs. I'm not going to completely cut them off, i'm still gonna say hi or bye to them when i see them but i'm not going to make the effort to hangout with them. I am going to surround myself with people who are focused on their education so we can help eachother grow as students. Second, I am going to start asking people for help. I'm a shy person so i don't usually talk to anyone in my class unless I have to or I already know them. I am going to try my best to study with friends and do s...

Regrets?

In my last blog, I talked about how recently i've been struggling with all my exams and everything that i’ve been doing for college. This last week has probably been the worse week of my life. That includes school and my personal life. Many things have been going down hill. This past week I had a lot of time being in my feelings and just had time to think about all my decisions that I have made. One thing that I thought about was why didn’t I go to a community college. Many of my friends go to Modesto Junior College and more than half of them that I know aren't stressing about their homework. It just seems easy for them. I know there's a lot of reasons why that might be true. They could just be smarter than me or they got some easy teachers. Thinking about that this past week has made somewhat regret not going to a junior college first. As hard as I am trying right now, nothing seems to really work for me. I know this is my first semester in college and i'm not used t...

Struggles

In the vlog I will be telling you about the struggles that I am going through in college. The first couple weeks of college seemed to be decent and I was not stressing. Now that we're further into this semester, I noticed that college is getting way harder. Harder than I am used too. I have noticed that it is stressing me out really bad and it usually takes a lot for me to get stressed. I don’t even know why i'm feeling stressed. It is hard to say that it's because of school because I hardly get any homework and the homework that I do receive is easy or  I finish it on time. The the thing that could be stressing me would probably be my grades. Some of my classes, I have good grades. However the others they are questionable. It's hard to pick up those grades because there are no assignments that are given. We only get exams and our grades are based on the exam scores. I’m worried about having bad grades at the end of the summer. I feel like i'm not focused because t...

Studying

In this blog, I will be writing about studying. Throughout high school, I would hardly ever study. If i studied for tests, I would notice that my grades would be worse than the times that i didn’t study. So that’s why I would hardly every study. Now, in college it's so much different. I study so much but somehow it seems to not work. I’m a morning person so I tend to study in the morning. I'm more productive in the morning and as the day goes on get lazier and lazier. Recently, i’ve noticed that my psychology grade is dropping. I don’t know what to do. I take notes in the class and study. I for that class more than any other class. Now it’s stressing me out because I don’t know how to pick up my grade. I also study with my friends so i don't know what else to do. Psychology seems to be the only class that i am having a really hard time. In my entire life I don't think i have struggled this hard before. My professor puts up study guides and I spend hours and hours doin...

Why my major?

In this blog, I will be talking about why I chose pre-nursing and all the benefits that I will get from it. The reason why I chose pre-nursing was because it is a good career choice. Also because my parents and family really wanted me to. Im one of those people who aren't really passionate about anything whatsoever. So picking a major was really difficult. As time passed by, I knew i had to chose a major. it was between being a pharmacist and a nurse. I chose nursing because I want to help people. Not only help people but help create a stable future. I also wanted to make my family proud because I am the only one who is going straight to a four year in my family. Some benefits are there's always job openings. People get hurt everyday, there's not gonna be a day where nurses aren't gonna be needed anymore. This will make it easier to find a job once I finish college. For example, my uncle went to a mechanic school but couldn't find a job once he graduated. Another ...
