As the semester draws near to a close, I sit back and think of how fast the year flew by. I still remember move in day like it was five minutes ago. A lot of people are now starting to crack down and finish up last minute assignments including myself. I have been spending endless hours in the library in order to avoid distractions and failing grades. My friends laugh at me because the first time I stepped foot into the library was within the last two weeks of school.
It’s a great feeling to know that I have one year of college already under my belt and out of the way. With the way this year past by, I’ll be out of college in no time. What I’ve learned this year is that college can be extremely difficult. It’s not often that you get a professor who actually cares about your grades and is willing to help you. I’m grateful to have been a beneficiary of a few professors who actually warned me that my grade was in danger instead of just letting me fail and find out on my own.
What I plan on doing for 1st semester of my sophomore year is to begin working this hard from the 1st day of school as opposed to the last week. My new hangout spot will be the library. Next year, I plan to spend time in the library each day to avoid distractions. When I was younger, the place I hated to be in the most was the library because I hated to read. I still hate reading to this day but I love how quiet the library is. While I’m in the library for 3 hours, it feels like I’ve gotten a week’s worth of work completed. I know next year that the key to a strong finish is a strong start.
