Keep your Head up.

I knew this semester was going to be a challenge. Not because I had a lot of classes or really hard courses, but because I couldn't take as many classes as I wanted. It is hard to work a semester and only get 3 or 4 credits toward a degree. It makes graduation seem pretty far away. So I got discouraged even thought about quitting school and getting a license in a medical field, so I could have my own life. I just have to keep pushing on. I haven't been studying or reading much of my school work. I got discouraged about my situation. I am taking a mostly online class which is not a good method for me. I had a bad time at my other college this semester I had all online classes. I like to have in classroom time to focus, it keeps me more involved in my studies. I thought take this class and save gas money, it will also be easier to work with your work schedule since I am not in class much. Hopefully, next semester I can take 6 credits and feel more productive. Just have to push through the let downs and realize it will all be worth it when I get to get my Associate Degree and I walk across that stage. I want to feel that emotion again when you graduate. There will be tears. That will be a proud moment. I hopefully will get to experience it in about a year and a half.

So people out there who are having a hard time in school, I know how it feels. It looks pretty easy on TV or when other people graduate on time and things like that, but it is not it is a struggle between going out with friends and reading a book for class. Working and going to school or saving money to take classes. Just keep trying because one day it will be done and you will have a piece of paper that will make a difference in your life. You can do it!
