And Yet, It Continues...


All week long I’ve been working on so much stuff that I haven’t really had any “me time”. And the “me time” that I do get is time that should have been spent on my homework. During the week it’s all about making it from day to day with all the work that I have to keep doing. Just look at my schedule:

1st- Choir/ Study hall: Seriously I would drop choir if it weren’t for going to Chicago this spring, it being our senior trip and all. I’m an alto, while the majority of the rest of my friends are sopranos. Yeah, not so much fun.

2nd- College Prep: The reasons why I even have this blog. I really don’t mind this class, especially blogging and reading. It’s something that I rather enjoy

3rd- PE: It used to be that we could opt out of this class but it’s like a law now to have PE everyday or something.

4th- Adult Living: I pretty much just wing it in this class, do my homework from time to time (so far) and yet my grades still pretty good.

5th- Current Events: Just like another study hall, enough said.

6th- Creative Writing: Really it should be renamed “Newspaper” or “Journalism” because our class of 8 is in charge of the entire newspaper. Once a week we put out a newspaper online every week. So far I’ve done movie reviews for it, which, if you haven’t seen Vampires Suck or Easy A then I suggest you go see them.

7th- Contemporary Problems: This class varies from it actually being a psychology class to it being a current events class to just another study hall. This week we did a project on creating our own psychological experiment, which was kind of fun. I did my on “Why Do We Procrastinate?” (perfect example right here!!) Its due tomorrow, and thankfully my paper is already done

8th- Chemistry: I swear, this is seriously one of the hardest classes in the entire school. It’s completely online, however you still have to report to the class. I’ve actually been behind for about a week but finally (kind of) caught up. I took it last year and ended up failing the class so I’m hoping I can pass it this year!

Online Course-Intro to Psychology: Seriously, they say that classes only get harder, believe me they sure do once you get to college level stuff. I’m actually taking this class online through DMACC (the Ankeny campus) and man do you learn stuff. It’s interesting to learn yes but there’s SO much information that sometimes my mind just gets so mixed up…. Which is possibly the reason why I’m not doing so well in this class. I tend to procrastinate and try to attempt to learn three chapters in a week, like I did this past week and weekend, which I might add, is not wise. I’ve been telling myself that I’ll get to it all week start the next chapter and everything, stay on top of the class you know? But I still haven’t gotten to open that textbook quite yet…
And they said that you’re senior year was supposed to be easy…

It’s just been so much stuff this week; I don’t know what to think. Tomorrow’s Friday thankfully. However, my weekend plans consist of hardly any "me time".  Maybe I’ll just relax do a little homework and chill with friends this weekend, I’m not sure yet, but I do know that this homework isn’t going to wait for me.

Anybody else share the same feelings, of having a stressful senior year?
Or, maybe you were smart and made your senior year easy?
