Stressed!
I sent my textual analysis to my boyfriend so he could review it and make any changes that were needed. I thought that I did a pretty good job, and was hoping to get congratulated on the good work...sadly that wasn't the case. He tore my paper to pieces. I think there may have been like one or two paragraphs that were barely touched, but the rest was all in red or blue text(the stuff he changed.) It really puts a downer on me after doing so good on my literacy narrative. There was literally only like 2 or 3 little things wrong with my paper, and I got 57/60 points. I was so excited and it inspired me to get started on the textual analysis paper as soon as it was assigned. I guess maybe I shouldn't have started so soon since it obviously seems like I don't know what I'm doing. On top of that, I was trying to do some homework in math, and got completely lost on all of the problems. I finally got to the last problem, knowing all the others were still wrong, and when I couldn't figure it out I got mad and just said screw it. Monday, I have two exams, with ALOT of material to study. So that adds on to my stress. It sucks coming from a school where you're used to literally doing nothing but goofing around with classmates and texting, (and if we did have a test or quiz, our teachers let us cheat and just handed out answers and let us have open book tests for pretty much every test), to college where you have lots of work and studying in every class. And I plan on transferring to Auburn next year. I didn't make it when I applied last year due to my low ACT score of 21, but my grades at school were As and Bs. How couldnt they be when I had no work, and the teachers just handed out A's. The school screwed me over when it came to the ACT. I am hoping to make it into AU when I apply this year. But if I can't keep my grades up at AUM, how will I ever survive at Auburn? I don't know why I'm so worried though. So far I have made all A's in my classes. But I have only had a quiz here and there, and it's only the beginning of the semester, with another to go. Oh well..Hopefully I'll pass the exams on Monday..
