When reading freshman year. Sarah has now finished her first semester. Although she has completed her first semester I am still currently in mine. I have started looking forward to the next semester to get prepared. I knew I needed to register for spring classes as did Sarah. I had some difficulty when scheduling for class. Although I did not forget to register when the time came for me to pick classes a lot of the ones I wanted or needed were already full. This was due to the fact that freshman resister for class last while upperclassman and honor get first pick. I do have another meeting with my advisor to find more classes. The professors I have talked to along with my advisor have been extremely helpful.
Another thing though about as we are reaching the end of the semester is final exams. I have extreme anxiety and adhd so I tend to procraceniate when it comes to studying. I worry about not be quite prepared. I will be looking into recourses and study habit to begin so I can do well on all of my finals.
I am already counting down the days for spring break. I plan to spend most of it with my friends out of town and the rest with my friends and family from home.
I have also already started planning for the summer. I plan to continue with the job I have had for the past 3 years. I also will be visiting my best friend in South Carolina a lot. I hope to also take a few summer classes. I will spend the remainder of my times in my hometown with my friends and family.
I am excited to finish the semester, but I am also looking forward breaks.
