Famous Last Words: Slowly but Steadily

As my post title implies. I am readjusting to my college coursework slowly but steadily. So far, it's been hectic. Trying to juggle two math classes, two computer science classes and this online course can be a hassle. However, the ability to create this post at the end of every week allows me to decompress and reevaluate my week in a positive way. I believe that if you are able to write down all your challenges and goals, it makes them seem more manageable!

My math classes have been rough! So much so, I actually forgot to do one of the readings on time! Fortunately, we are always granted a grace period, which I definitely took advantage of. It is definitely frustrating, however, that I had to rush to put that reading assignment out so quickly and so haphazardly because I was so preoccupied by ONE math assignment that might as well have been a programming project. Fortunately, I got it done and turned in on-time and next week's assignment shouldn't be as demanding. As for my programming class, it's been rough, but I believe an optimistic mindset is key to surviving the rest of the semester, both grade-wise and emotional-wise!

Outside of school, it's been a great week for football! Our boys in red redeemed our school by destroying the Buckeyes in a game that was predicted to be a blowout not in our favor. The Patriots lost, which is a good sign that the Year of the Brady is not going to be a thing. And for my Cowboys, as I am writing this, they are demolishing the Giants that gave us so much trouble last season. All is right in the world of the pigskin.

I am definitely looking forward to next week. Looking at my giant calendar that I keep next to my desk, my week does not look overbearing at all. I feel that if I can keep all my goals/assignments written and visible, I can easily achieve them, or at least not feel too bogged down by due dates. Wish me the same luck as I wish you all for next week!
