The Halfway Point
This is it. I've reached the halfway point of the fall 2017 semester. Never have I felt so frazzled and swamped with deadlines over essays and papers. Never had I had to worry about self-directed learning. Never had I have felt so behind on almost everything. Yet, this is par for the course. My midterm grades are still above average but I struggle to keep up with them. This is the peak, and it all goes downhill from this point. Before you know it, finals week will be around the corner. This past week, I have felt the waves of the 18 hour semester come crashing down on me like moths to flames. Sometimes, it is a struggle. Is it worth it? Yes. The feeling of dread surrounding me when it comes to school shall pass. I will be okay.
