My class schedule reminds me of my high school schedule, I start at 9 in the morning and I am finished at 2. Then for the most part I have the same classes 3 to 4 times a week. So my schedule still has that high school feel but the major difference between my high school schedule and college schedule is that now in college I have a lot of free time. I mean that when I finish my last class of the day, the day is still young, I am no longer mentally exhausted after leaving class and I have more time to myself.With this comes a lot more responsibility of time management unlike high school. With high school I was able to procrastinate with my work and either finish during a late-night cram session or I was able to get an extension. With college it is a whole new ball game, I actually had to do that once and it did not work out in my favor. I did not really procrastinate with my assignment but I did not plan t out, so the reality was that I missed my dead line to turn my work in and I lost a few points it was not the end of the world but I learned a valuable lesson that night. I cannot wait to the last minute to turn assignments in, it will never work.
Also with my abundance of free time I have learn time management, so that I do not miss deadlines and other important things. What I have to constantly remind myself of is that if I am not careful I can let the day go pass me. I will look up and it is 9 pm and I have a paper due at 12 midnight and I have not done anything productive. What I am learning slowly but surely is that time management is a necessity for me to succeed.
That great.I think its great that you have all your classes early, so now you have time to do things such as study, watch TV, chill and other things people who take late class cant do. I mean I would love to get all my classes out the way early, I mean who wants to be in class at 9 at night. That could be time for sleep as well. Keep up the good work, and I've seen you learned time management which is a very good tool.
