I read the material, but I’m not applying myself as much as I should.
No one to blame but myself, really. I could be spending time in the library, but my social life is important to me and sometimes I choose that instead. Why? Because I could get hit by a bus tomorrow. Of course, if my child says that to me when she’s 19 I’ll probably read her the riot act about how every day is a gift and you have to focus. Or something that will be totally hypocritical.
Next week is midterms. I turned one in already. We are halfway though this horrific semester and I have to suck it up and not be a prima-donna about it anymore.
Fighting for opportunities is what I have to do. It’s time.
After being ditched by the economics department head I showed back up again and had a great experience and think she will help me. So not giving up pays off. Now, I have to show her and everyone else that I’m someone to notice and help and get in there and get the best education I can.
On the bright side, I’ve always had an affinity for the library. I’m about to spend so much time there my family might not know what I look like anymore.

I ♥ Being Social!
