In The Beginning...

The start of a new school year is always exciting for me. Over the summer, I'm so enthusiastic about making up new schedules and actually doing everything this year.

And then it starts great! And I'm rocking it! And my schedule is working! And I'm doing everything! And it's working!

For three days.

And then... I start deteriorating. I start getting frustrated because I don't understand the schoolwork I'm doing, and then I start procrastinating because I'm so frustrated and then I'm stressing out because I need to get all this done because I'm never getting into college and...

so, not much happens.

But this year is gonna be different (HA!). I'm taking a class at the local community college, I'm taking a few classes at other people's houses and I've only really got to do science and math by myself.

Looking realistically at my schedule as well, I think I'm going to have time to actually be working, at least a little bit during the week. I may not have as much free time as I'd like, but that gives me less time to freak out about everything, so we'll see.

I've got new books, new teachers, new attitude.

So how is this school year gonna work out?
