Today is Monday and the school week ends tomorrow. I've been done with my coursework for this week since Saturday and have been telling myself that I would get a jump start on next week's assignments since they both are huge. The sad fact is that I've done nothing but fudge around and read what needs done about 15 times and then go watch tv or do anything that doesn't involve the internet. I do have to say that taking online classes has helped me NOT want to be online for other things anymore and that includes Facebook, which has been my only social interaction for a couple years now.
I am not wanting to socialize on Facebook, Twitter or anywhere else online because when I'm done with my course work, my eyes are usually killing me and I just want to go rest them. I've been glancing at stuff people are posting on Facebook, either their timelines or mine, but not really getting too far into anything. I've even stopped watching youtube videos or Hulu shows because I just don't care.
My main focus is getting my coursework done and done correctly so I can maintain a good GPA and be able to get a good internship when I graduate. I've learned through research that internships in my state are hard to come by and they take people with the best grades, so that's why I'm focusing so much harder on school than anything else (besides my pets and fiance of course :) ).
I hope you all are enjoying reading about my journey through college and please feel free to ask me any questions you like, I'm always willing to answer them.
Until next time,
Karen
It's only natural to not want to be on social media or online after having to spend so much time online for your classes. Many people with careers in computers who have to use them for hours and hours will feel the same. It's good that you are keeping your focus on what's really important for you to succeed. School always comes first but at the same time don't lose track of your friends. They care about you. :)
