embarrassment... 1 month ago

In middle school, my grades were good and all my classes were advanced courses. When I hit 8th grade, I became very depressed and began drinking liqour. It controlled me for about a good 2 years. I was sent to a rehabilitation because i almost died of alcohol poisoning. When I went back to school, I no longer cared about my grades. They slipped. I am a sophmore now, and am taking algebra1 for the third time. I just found out last week that my average is a straight zero. It’s embarrassing to think that advanced 8th graders are doing better than me. I plan to change this.
Starting now.



Better Grades 2 months ago

It's a Concoction of 10% of hardwork and 90% of prayer 3 months ago

Its been said that pray can move mountains. That should be the main focus. Hardwork is also important, dont procrastinate. Have the habit of loving every work that you do…

I started "To Kill A Mockingbird" 4 months ago

It’s required for summer reading, so by starting the book in the middle of summer instead of the day before school is good since I’m quite the procrastinator, haha!



I HAVE and CAN do better... 7 months ago

My GPA has now just reached an all time low of 2.0. I can’t believe this, it is the beginning of the last marking period of my junior year and i have a 2.0. I failed THREE classes last marking period. I know I can do better in school, I just have to do my work and pay attention. I started to slack a lot once I got in to middle school and got in a bad habit of it; not doing work, dozing off in class when supposed to be paying attention, etc. I’m just going to have to cut the laziness out, quit with the partying, and get back on track. Figuratively and literally, I’ve been declared ineligible for my grades and have been kicked off the track team..this has to be reversed. We’ll see how I stick to my goal when final report cards come back.

The Problems 9 months ago

The problem is that I take a very long time to learn something and to complete homeworks.

As a result, I have not been doing homeworks because they take too long. And to be honest, I haven’t been sitting down and studying.

So now… I’m going to go get some dinner, quickly.

I’m going to organize my file cabinet. Post my professor’s office hours, plan what I need help with and what I’ll study this weekend and begin on my homework due tomorrow.

For many years I have been doing poorly in school. Not poorly. I went from above average, to average, to average and at times below average but according to my ex-advisor, I am “just fine”. But in my mind, I am NOT reaching my goals. This makes me feel terrible, weak, lazy, unworthy. I want to be proud of myself.
