OMG....Freaking out!

I know you all must hate me sooo much and I will continue to apologize many times through out this entire post (Psst Im Sorry).  I have been so busy with preparations.  Guess what???? I got accepted into The University of South Carolina!!!!!!!! IM officially a Gamecock!  So incase you guys don't know too much about big universities they are extremely expensive and so my whole summer I have been freaking out money wise $$$$$ Tuition alone is going to cost me an arm and a leg!  The moral of the story study hard kids make good grades and get scholarships.  
Summer school....now that's something I am not very happy about!  Im taking three classes and saying they are easy would be an understatement!  Between Math, Philosophy, and Human Sexuality I am about to murder myself.  Not to mention my asshole of a professor (ever dealt with one of those? they are the best right)
 Someone save me from the torture!

College life = no life

So maybe you are in college, maybe you aren't.  Well let me tell you one thing not everyone's college life is like in the movies.  Actually no one I know gets to party that much and stay in school for longer than a year.  I have gone to zero parties my freshman year of college and already I have failed one class and I am on the brink of loosing my scholarship......
So now I have to take summer classes and those well they don't sound like the most fun things to be doing all summer, but we do what we have to inorder to stay in school.  So I looked up some tips on how to avoid the situation I am currently in (I don't think you want advice from me)
 
1. Don't be a procrastinator
        I for one have a huge problem with this I always manage to convince myself that I can do things last minute and then I either have to settle for a lower grade or take the no sleep option (I love sleep so that is the last resort)  So make a calendar for yourself and make sure you stick by it don't let yourself be talked out of doing work.
 
2. Turn off your phone for 1 hour 1/2 each day
        This is the hardest one for me I always like to be in touch with my friends but if you just turn your phone off for 1 hour and 1/2 and commit yourself to doing work you will be surprised at what you get done.  And for those who are about to ask me about Pandora? NO!!!! you'll hear your little notification ring go off and be too tempted.  My advice if you are working on a laptop go to Pandora's website and use that.
 
3. Block out distractions
          I didn't know about this until recently but there are actual websites you can go to and you can block social media websites and all kinds of things!  Just go on google and type in block websites for studying/ study helper block websites whichever you prefer.
 
4. And last but not least don't be afraid to ask for help
          I didn't want to believe I could be wrong and not be able to do all of this on my own so when anyone told me I was doing it wrong I became headstrong and shut them down.  Don't do this its the worst thing you could actually do and trust me it wont help in the least.
 
I am now taking three classes this summer because no one told me I was being a stubborn pig head so I hope that maybe this will prevent someone from making the same mistakes.
 
 
Got any freshman college horror stories you want to share send them to my email and ill post them for you!

super crazily sorry

Would it make a difference if I told you how sorry I am for not writing a post on here for almost three weeks?
No?
Well I am extremely sorry....so let me tell you the latest!
I went to Cheersport Nationals which for cheerleaders is like going to a bowl game in football the only thing better is Worlds which is like the superbowl of cheerleading.
My team Senior Small Level 2 went up against thirteen other teams and we placed 3rd!
For a competition like this that is major, we went up against some crazy hard teams and I think they all did amazing it was only pure dedication that got us that medal.
And we had a competition 2 weeks before that as well meaning only one thing.....crazy ass practice's!!!!!!  Where your coaches drive you to craziness and you want to rip your hair out.
So what is in store for now?

  • A home competition in a week
  • A competition in Myrtle Beach in a month
  • Working Masters in two months
  • Trying to pass my second semester in college
Speaking of The Masters my hours from what I heard from my friend who did it last year I will be getting up around 5am and working til midnight each night and this is for a week!  any one ever heard of something so crazy!

So in a nutshell I'm slowly turning into a head case!  I have so much on my plate but I am working hard to make sure that it all turns out well, because reward does not come without work and sacrifice.

What have yall been up to?

Uh Oh.....I didn't do my homework

Whether you're in middle school, high school, or college I'm sure you can relate to that oopsie's moment where you either forgot to do you're homework...or if you're like me you said "I'll do it later."
Well you want to know what happens when you do that?   You don't do it!

‘why didn’t i just do my homework’ a musical by me featuring hits such as ‘I’ve had 3 weeks to complete this fucking essay’ and ‘I’ll do it in the morning’

 
Let me explain my teacher hasn't been present to class for the last month.  She went to the hospital for kidney stones then went into kidney failure.  We have not received any word from her on her condition, so we assumed we would not be taking a final exam....thus, I failed to turn in my 4 page research paper like I was supposed to.
 

no idea if this paper is GOOD but its DONE

An anthology of short stories by college students

 
yeah I know bad college student...can I just take a second to tell you how majorly I have fucked up my first semester of college.  I first off took on a full load with some classes above my level.  Now I have 2 "A's" and 3 "D's".
You want me to tell you the part that really screwed me over? yeah? we just got an email today from the head of the English department and since our teacher Is out our Research Paper is going to count as our final exam!
