Stressed Out
Transitioning from high school to college was a bigger struggle for me than I thought. The responsibility has increased so much for me and I have to do everything on my own. Although, I love the freedom, the work load can get a bit heavy at times. I am learning to manage my time and making sure to get all my tasks done. I did not really believe people when they said it would be a lot harder. Now I see what there talking about. I just need to stay focused and make sure to write down all my assignments and then do them ahead of time. Sometimes I feel like I do not have enough time in the day to get everything done and it really stresses me out. I find myself staying up till 2 in the morning doing my homework. I was never really taught how to study in high school so tests are very difficult for me. In the past month or so I have learned a lot about school and responsibilities. Im hoping to get everything figured out so I do not have to be so stressed all the time! Im sure I will get into the swing of things eventually.

yeah I never really learned how to study either in HS... really it was easy enough for me that I never had to study to get good grades, but once I got to college, yeah not so much. My first semester there I took Math 171 and KABOOM that was a mistake. It was a 5 credit hour course and I ended up with a D in the class. I didn't make that mistake twice.

This is defanitly true for a lot of us. I was taught study skills, but it hasn't helped me very much. I am also having a really tough time with time management due to class, sports, and other activities. Enjoy it though! People always say that this will be the best years of our life. Imagine the great skills that you will have after you leave here and go out into the real world.
