I'm so overwhelmed
School is def kicking my butt this semester. What was I thinking taking 18 credit hours. I have like 3 classes that aren't to bad, 2 for sure I have a B in, possibly an A. This one class I'm taking for the second time cause I have to have at least a C and I'm still in the D area. Its all tests and they are KILLING me! I just took on over our lecture today and I got a 58. I will be emailing her cause some of that stuff we didn't cover in class at all so i think that I should get points for those since I missed them. I made my school to-do list for this week only and I about cried when I saw it all. I know some of it won't be THAT bad, but its still overwhelming, especially when I have so many other things going on. One class that I didn't think would be that bad has a HUGE portfolio that takes an hour per page and when I turned in the first half I did it wrong so I have to re-do almost the whole thing. I need more hours in the day. My break at work consists of going to class and I can't drop hours cause I need to work to pay my bills. I'm so ready for my mini-vacation to go see my brother in a couple weeks. I'm gonna try to get ahead so while we are gone i don't have to worry about much. Ok I just needed a little vent and a little break from all the work I've been doing since I got home from class.
Re: I'm so overwhelmed
This!
I remember my last semester I crammed in 18 credits so I could graduate before I had H1, while working fulltime and 8 months pregnant! It's tough, but it's so worth it to buckle down and get it done. And don't be afraid to ask for help!
