A little better...
9 months ago
I seem to have improved slightly, in the motivation department, but I still don’t think that straight A’s are a possibility. I’ll be satisfied with B’s for this semester, but I’ll be trying towards A’s again come fall. Oh well. So long as I’m improving.

May Not Happen Due to Lack of Motivation
10 months ago
Due to my lack of motivation for the first 4 weeks of school, I may not be able to get straight As. But I will try my damnedest from now on.
I had a problem of just feeling like “God, I would be so much better in this world if I was working/researching/dancing/organizing events/anything non-academic”. I stopped caring about school. But then listening to my friend talking about defying her parents by beating their expectations… after having an argument with my own parents … and after taking a quiz today and finding that I didn’t know how to do anything and seeing how EMBARASSED and ASHAMED i felt, I kind of woke up. I’m doing my work now…

Motivation, where art thou?
10 months ago
I was doing so well with my ambition for this goal for about two weeks, but all of the sudden, it’s like I can’t make myself care, just like last semester. This can’t happen. Last semester, I believe my problem was that I was off my depression medication, so I just slept all the time and felt shitty. But I’m back on it. So I have no excuse.
Already, I have a short story that was due last week that I haven’t written. This stems, in part, from my fear of writing fiction and having a group of people read and criticize it. But I’ll need to get over this. I need to do well in school. Now.

New start
11 months ago
I’m going to shoot for A’s, but if I don’t quite make it, I’ll be okay knowing that I honestly tried. Last semester I failed two classes and got mediocre grades in the others. If I continue to do poorly, I’ll never get into the Peace Corps, and that’s my only real plan for once I get my bachelor’s degree… so I’d rather not totally screw up my future, thanks. I just need to find motivation within myself… that’s the hard part.
