It may sound weird, but I'm thinking of taking a new approach to school this semester. I only have two semesters left...and most people would be freaking out with senior level courses and the end so near in sight. So here is mah plan. I'm going to approach this semester with the niavete of a freshman.
Think about it...think about when you were a freshman. You just wanted to have fun. You had just moved out of your parents' house. Classes were important but they weren't EVERYTHING. You approached everything like you did when you were in high school... like it wasn't no big thang. Now, I know that I could be wrong. I'm sure that there were lots of people who went through high school taking AP classes, stressed about college admissions, etc...but for all intents and purposes, we shall exclude those people from this discussion. I'm sorry.
I feel pretty confident about this new plan. I think I've been doing it for the past three years anyway. But I started freaking out about being a senior and thought that action needed to be taken! Especially since some of my classes are pretty, freaking intimidating (TWO Shakespeare classes, anyone?!). I know, Shakespeare was a great guy, but I just never really got into him. I never thought to myself, I'm going to read Shakespeare, for fun. And apparently, my Shakespeare and Film teacher is this hardest teacher in the English Department (Seigfreid....it just sounds intimidating). But guess what? I'm just going to write all my papers, take my tests, not stress, and as my mother says, just see what comes out in the wash.
And now I feel better :)
