Home at Last

This pat weekend I finally got to go home, Detroit! It was everything I needed, being home, im a familiar place with familiar people. I didn't even have to do much, just being in my comfort zone gave me the energy I needed in order to return back to school to be successful. The down fall, I didn't realize there was a test I needed to get prepared for over the weekend, I wasn't even aware there was a study guide, I arrived back to school late on Monday, which was the day I had the class that I needed to prepare for the test. Thank God my Professor is letting me take the test next Monday, God has really been on my side lately. I didn't even get to revise my two narratives!! Hopefully it is easy to catch up. Today is going to be a focus and dedication day. No excuses. Period.

Narratives

I have had a lot of fun writing these narratives in class. I think what I like the most if that is the fact that you are free to write about whatever you want, however you want and that gives me a sense of control! I really don't know what the feeling is, the narrative assignments, remind me of my childhood, I use to "write" movies or plays, of course I didn't really know how to write a movie however, every scene I would write, I would envision the scenes coming to life as if it were a movie. That's kind of what I did when I wrote my fictional narrative, the only down fall is that there is a page limit and word count requirement, so its hard for me to try to pack all of my ideas. This was my main struggle but I look forward to revising them and seeing how they both turn out.

Stressing OUT! The pressure is on

The pressure is on and the heat is blazing!!! I think this semester is finally hitting me, paper after paper, blog after blog, exam after exam, after exam and all over again. I think I need to turn up the heat myself!! I guess my focus has been kind of off but again, I don't think it has, I get really over whelmed and I know what I have to do it just figuring what to do first and for how long should I do it before I move on to the next thing. its a problem that I have been trying to over come and trying to figure out why I get soooooo overwhelmed with assignments and for others it is so easy. I think its because I make excuses and I think that assignments will take less time than it actually does. I sometimes feel like a slacker but I swear its never my intentions but, from this day forward, there will be a change and I will be more focused. I declare it and it is done!
