Im aching to complete this goal 3 weeks ago

But I’m seriously considering a career change. If I decide against EDUC then I’m causing myself a major setback but I’d rather do something I’m happy with in the end.

stay tuned for progress.

I start college for the first time in fall. I have no idea what I want my major to be and I don’t know if I’m acutally going to get the scholarship i signed up for.
I’m hoping for the best and jumping in head first.

Ever since i set on my grandfathers lap as a boy, he would tell me how smart of a kid I was. He would encourage me to read more and to follow my dreams; every chance he got. He would tell me to stay away from drugs and from people who might try and talk me into doing things that weren’t good for me.

College has always been a challenge for me, I know it’s supposed to be for most people but I seem to struggle more than others. The only person that can fix/change/accomplish this is me and it is my top current goal to date.



Jain2009 is studying... Seriously!!

Best Thing I ever Did 1 month ago

It does not matter if you graduate from an IVy league, a tier1, tier 2 or a community college.

If you have set your heart into it, and you really want it you can do it.

It took me forever to graduate from college.
Firstly I was not sure what major i wanted to pursue.
I took Architecture and hated it. So I had to change my major.
GPA was all messed up. Went through a very terrible and crazy break-up. Was low on financial resources.

Basically everything went wrong.
But I put my heart and soul into it. The only thing I wanted to do is to graduate from College.
And I did it.
I studied endless nights, and finally graduated.

Tips-

Study in groups, if you can.
Do Not study at Home.
Get in the habit of studying in a library.
Get help if you need it early enough.
check on your adviser- if I was wise enough to change my adviser early enough, my graduating GPA would be at least .5 higher.

Okay, so spring semester didn’t go so well. two D’s. I’ll have to buckle down and work harder from here on in so as to avoid repeating that.

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 month ago

This is one time that I feel no shame in patting myself on the back. I DID IT! I know that a lot of people graduate college, and maybe it doesn’t seem like a big deal, but it sure feels like a big deal!
Let me recap on why I’m so great (I told you, I’m shameless):
1. I beat the odds.
2. I barely passed high school, so, a)school is not my thing, and, b)I had to jump through a lot of hoops to even get accepted into college.
3. I worked all through college, and paid for college myself.
4. I graduated with a really high GPA, even though I have never been naturally inclined to do well in school, b/c I was determined.
5. My Mom died right before my last academic year of school, and I did not drop out. The old me would have thrown in the towel, and truthfully, I think that would have been justified. But, I stayed enrolled full time, and I barreled through.
6. I am a bad ass.
