I’m kinda annoyed by like... idk how expected and like I dunno, I don’t wanna say forced but like how kinda pushed you are in school (at least mine? maybe? I am at the very least pushed by my parents so) to take full credit hours which is about like 4-5 classes
I get that that’s kinda like the way things are done up til that point, and I get people wanting to get through school like as quickly as possible
and it just seems so like... I dunno I just...
Just from me, even tho it probably just like
I understand that I am making it worse and that I am litterally avoiding so much work that I should be doing and making it harder on myself and plenty of people do this fine with still quite a bit of stress and pressure of course
but I just
kinda wish I didn’t have to do that, take so many classes because clearly I have piss poor time management skills and am getting so overwhelmed and I know that I’d be there longer, but I honestly
like I LIKE taking classes and being in school
it’s when I have long essays and tests all on the same day and novels that are expected to be read in a week or less (I’m a super slow reader and also just really shit at picking good times to read) that it just makes it so much worse and miserable
and I’d really love it if I could just take a class or two at a time...? and I feel like that should be prompted as an option more often? Like I guess within the school it kinda is, like I suppose from some of the peeps that matter I don’t recall feeling all the pressured to take full credit hours
but outside of it, I dunno
I guess that’s the feeling of college I get? Like yeah fill you’re time with four or more classes and stress yourself out as you try and simultaneously write essays and study for tests and read things and also somehow sleep eat and haave down time?
like I’m genuinely so blown away and admiring of people who can do that especially if they have kids and like full times jobs. That’s crazy!
and I feel like I had more things to say and more of a point but I have just
gotten really tired of school lately
and it probably just seems and /is/ so ridiculous coming from me who clearly is seen not doing what she’s supposed as it’s documented that I’m on tumblr or youtube for most of the day
I get like tastes of what not being in school is like, like with this weekend I tried to completely clear school from my mind because I wanted to have a birthday that felt good, and I know like moving on to the “real world” comes with it’s own problems and deadlines
but it also comes with a hell of a lot less essays and I have seriously... I haven’t likes essays since like 10th grade? and even then it was the one class because that was a really nice lit class I felt really good in there. and I just
