How to Survive Your Last Semester of College ?

Wow. I am taking 3 science courses (with 3 labs) this spring 2009 semester (Zoology/Plant Science/ Animal Physiology); this summer I will take Technical writing and Microbiology w/lab. Then I graduate. When you get to the end of your college career some of the fire that you had for school when you started is GONE. It has been beaten out by demanding professors, mountains of reading, difficult exams. I have to find a way to keep myself very motivated so that I can get the grades (A's) that I need/want in the final 5 courses and get that B.A.; I guess you just have to put things into perspective and know that the decisions you make today educationally will make achieving future goals more possible...

Lesson learned: Just suck it up and do it! It will all come into perspective when you finish...

There is a lot of info on how to make it through your first experiences in college; but what about your last?

Joined a Gym...

I joined a 24 Hour Fitness Gym! This should really help me reach my fitness goal. I took a cycling class yesterday. Really tough hour of exercise! I go back today... Will exercise 5 day a week hopefully... lets' see....
