Starting Afresh
Here I am in a new semester, and my work ethic has never been this high before. I think last semester was a wake up call, especially since my overall gpa can only go but so high since i have been performing at less then my potential. With this desire to do more, I find myself not wanting to be around my friends as much. I know that when I am with them, I am much less productive, and I don't want to leave them when I am with them. So with that said, I don't see myself hanging out much with them at all this semester. Maybe just the occasional weekend, but it most definitely will be like last spring semester where I just saw them by and by. I was so excited to see all my friends after the long summer break, but I can't allow myself to not succeed academically. My profession here at Carolina, is to be a student. That is my profession, and it is a full time job.
Other wise, this semester sure has started off with a bang. I don't plan on skipping classes because I am too tired. Last semester I was very depressed over my gpa, but now that I have a little footing with my major, I have some more direction, that everything will fall into place and I can actually start to ENJOY my classes. It is looking to be a bright semester. I am confident in myself and I feel great.
