Student Blogger





(Books for 3 out of 5 classes)


I'm nearly finished with week 3 of my second semester of college.
I knew that it was going to be overwhelming. I'm 27 years old. I've been out of school for 9 years. I didn't go into it thinking it was going to be easy.
Week 3 and I'm so frustrated.
Last semester I had most of my classes online. This semester I am there Monday - Friday.
I want to stress that I really do enjoy most of my classes. I love Composition, the Professor makes it fun and interesting. Intro to Fine Arts allows me to experience art, music, sculpture, architecture. There's so much variety with what I'm currently learning.
I love learning. The homework is sometimes stressful because there's a due date and I want to make sure that I've done everything the best of my ability and that I understand the material.
The social atmosphere is almost unbearable at times.
I should fashion a sign to wear that says "I'm not a piece of meat. Go away!". Unwanted advances make my stomach turn.
I feel so sleep deprived.
This is far from what I imagined doing at 27.
...
My goal right now is to devote more of my free time (however small it is) to blogging.
Blogging makes me happy.
It's really such a great way for me to destress.
It's something positive in my life, and it allows me to reflect and appreciate.
I feel that if I don't devote more time to blogging, to feeling productive in a carefree way, then I will become even more burnt out with this college experience.
Blogging at least 3 days weekly? Sounds good to me.
