Second Semester of College?! =]

Hey again everyone! Ahh can you all believe that the second semester of college has started?! First semester was a bit hectic with the transition from high school to John Jay, but now that we all kind of got into the hang of things... there is definitely much more to look forward to from my perspective! I'm also so hyped that I actually finished my first semester of college! Ahh! =]
My first day of class was on Thursday and I thought that it was quite successful! I had math and english and it seems like I'll get a lot of these courses.
Also, no offense to any of my professors last semester... but let me say, I am so grateful for ratemyprofessor.com. This was my first time using it and SO FAR- it seems effective. Haha even though certain professors I had last semester were okay (as professors in general)... I just didn't quite grasp their teaching method and I didn't learn much from them. Don't get me wrong- they were all really nice people... but I just did not understand from their method of teaching. This semester, hopefully things will get better.
With this new semester quickly approaching... I am both as excited as can be and as nervous as can be! I am extremely excited because it is the start of a brand new semester.. I'm sure this happened to you one way or another last semester. But at first... I was on top of all the reading and assignments. But eventually- I fell behind and I was stressing to catch up, but that only added to more stress and falling behind even more because I wasn't grasping the concepts. With this new semester- I'm determined to stay on top of my work and work hard to succeed. I'm also excited because who isn't excited to start something new (a new semester I mean). Now that I finally got into the hang of "college" - I am more comfortable with things and I've adjusted. So time to go back, work hard and focus! =]
I'm also crazy nervous about this semester as well. One reason is because of some of the courses I'm taking. I know some of these classes require A LOTT of reading and the reading is what I have to keep up with in order to know what's going on in class. So I'm a bit scared about that =/ I'm also nervous because it's that bittersweet feeling again. As I mentioned in my excited part because of a new semester.. I'm also nervous because I don't know what to really expect. Also, I want to get my GPA up this semester, so I'm stressing myself to do the best that I can.
Coming back to school after a month break- I'm excited to see everyone again and just be back into "school mode" haha. This is soo different from high school! Winter break and having no work was nice- but personally... I feel its good to just get back into the swing of things and go back to school and have classes and all that- after being on break for so long. Not so much the workload, but you get what I mean =) I'm a bit of a nerd, as you can tell haha. But I like school and I'm really looking forward to working hard this semester. Anyway.. I wish you all the best of luck with the new semester and I'll keep blogging throughout =)
