Almost done with this quarter …
Next quarter I have one class that looks pretty fun, however, I have another class that I just have a feeling I’m going to hate.
ENG 202 – Professional Writing and Composition
IT 242 – Operating Systems and Practical Networks
Can you guess which one I’m going to hate? If you’ve picked out the English class, you are correct! My mind was made for more coding then writing. When I write, things get so jumbled around in such a disorganized fashion. This is where my ADD mind goes haywire. Ironically, simply just reading a book can cause the same effect, but I love to read so I force my way through it. I can’t force my way through English Comp, and it kills me. I’m pretty scared I will do horrible in the class, and I can’t give up this 4.0 GPA yet, I’m not ready to let it go. I’m surprised I’m doing so well in school however. This wouldn’t have been possible in high school or my first few years of college. The real reason I quit before finishing my degree was because they were starting to make me really get my nose inside my studies and I couldn’t wing it anymore. I’ve been able to wing school my whole life, until now. Now, I’m working my fucking ass off, but the payoff is amazing, even though I’m putting in twice the energy as some college students. I have to. It takes me so much longer to get around my ADD brick walls that point me off to other distractions, and I have to pull myself back on the straight line and push through it. God it’s hard. But I’m doing it.
I’m working the night shift this whole week, which means my days will be nights and my nights will be my days. I don’t mind, I’m actually looking a little forward to it. It’s going to be a pain to turn those nights and days around next week however.
Since I just got done with my group project in UNIX I’m going to treat myself to my own distraction.
