Blog Post 5

Lately I've been stressing myself out by trying to remind myself to check the student schedule everyday. Even though this shouldn't be an issue the thought slips my mind time and time again and I've paid for it. Missing one part to an assignment or overlooking one small detail has cost me not only in a grade, but an absence as well. I know I'm in college now and I'm supposed to take my responsibilities into my own hands, but with everything I have going on right now it gets a little hard sometimes. I'm glad we have a syllabus that we can check at anytime to for warn ourselves from upcoming assignments, but I find it hard to trust in myself to do so.

I think if I keep motivating myself to check it at least once every couple of days I'll be able to start forcing a habit of it. Until then I guess I'll keep skimming by assignments by the skin of my teeth. That's not the way it should be though, I should be eager to check for assignments and complete them. This is my future and my education. I'm going to turn this around and make a lot of changes to my lifestyle that might hinder me from being able to complete my tasks for this class. The funny thing is that I love using the Internet, it comes almost naturally to me. It's just the matter of making myself do it and committing to doing it.
