You know, I've not done so well in classes before, but this semester just takes the cake. Yea, I failed my first class ever. But did it stop there? Oh, no. I failed not one...but TWO classes. I guess it is true what they say...when it rain, it flippin pours. I just hope this doesn't ruin my chances for grad school. This whole situation makes me feel really dumb. I put other priorities first and got too stressed over the wrong things. I am just praying that Dr. S-B will let me continue to be MEO. I am in the same boat as Beth in that I don't know how to be a regular Brother. In the first two weeks I was a Brother, I was elected Secretary, and I've held an office ever since. I think that if I have to resign, I might just go conditional. It will kill me to do it, but I might have to. I'm just bracing myself for the worst...
My mom thinks it would be a good idea for me to resign, too. She thinks I'm spreading myself too thin. I can see that in a way. 20-30 hours a week at Uhaul...KKPsi...Marching Band...16-18 hours a semester of classes...and on top of that, I still manage to have a social life.
I also wonder if Dr. Butts had anything to do with my lack of effort this semester. At the beginning of the semester, he and I had a meeting where he told me it was too much. I handled it before...but he didn't think I could handle it. Well, guess what Dr. B...you were right, and I royally screwed my GPA because I didn't listen. ANGST PICKLES!!!
On the other hand, I can't dwell on it. There's nothing I can do at this point except try harder next semester. So what does that mean for me?
- most likely...little to no social life
- maybe have to resign and possibly go conditional
- go to class every day
- fewer hours at Uhaul, or actually do homework while I'm at work instead of playing video games
- little to no gaming all semester
- pay attention in class, and be sure to go every day
- be more organized
- GO TO CLASS EVERY DAY!!!
I think I stressed going to classes enough...lol
All I know is that I am capable of more so I had better start showing it.......
