its kickin my *** bad.
already dropped one class
and have alot to do in the other 3 now.
first semester at a university, its killing me.
I probalby should get tested for add.... I just cant look at the books long enough.

But my study habits always sucked. I made badass grades through out grade school. Never studied, etc, made awesome grades in weighted/honor/ap classes. community college was a joke too, but i did study some there, still slacked.

UNT w/ the courses im taking this semester (had 3 maths) is a beating.
I have a group project thats 25% of the grade in one night class. Its a beating getting everyone together on it for sure.

C for me = not taking any more classes. My GPA has to be high to take next semesters courses. Just have the higher level crap left and im done. Probably take me 2.5-3 years to finish... ahhhhhh the horror.

I leave work today, meet up with the group, do some bullshit there, go home, woof down some ramen or something else thats cheap and fast, and hit the books for the accounting test in the morning that i have NO clue how to do. ****

I'm passing all my classes, but I don't have the motivation to do anything...I'm always doing things at the last minute. I'm taking 5 classes, but it's the two science and 1 math class that's bugging me plus group presentations due in every class this month. I'm ready for December. I'm taking a ski trip as a reward to myself.

Yep Preaching to the choir man, I've got a Western Civ class that is a BIATCH! I'm really gonna have to pull a rabbit out of the hat to get a C. But its all about just focussing and studying a little harder.

No complaints in my others though all B's here!

Good luck with it man
