to focus on a more important class, but one thing I learned in college is that sometimes a person must sacrifice. I am currently sacrificing my grade point average, I know everything won’t be a perfect score, because when I start to focus extra time on one subject some other classes might get left behind.

according to our marks, it also gave our teacher a guide for a prediction of our final grade.

For some, college is a big leap. You go from being cradled for seventeen years of your life to having all responsibilities being placed into your hands. I for one, had to make that adjustment and for me that was huge. I always had things handled by someone whether it be my parents or teacher depending on the situation. Nothing was ever fully my responsibility. I’m also not very outspoken, public speaking terrifies me, and getting out of my comfort zone isn’t something that I tend to do so the…

I cried when she said those words and I pee on myself…
