As the weeks inch closer and closer to the midterms the later weeks of college have brought in a new level of challenges and intensity. In some classes midterms and even a final was announced for my math class. The weeks prior were a breeze compared but now homework piles up and with that comes stressors. One main stressor I have is with my computer science class. A new language is tough, but learning a new language plus a completely new way to
format is next level with difficulty. Everyone seems to understand what’s going on while I sit stumped all the time, but luckily for me it seems that a lot of the class material is also online so that it becomes easier to study and look for assistance which has helped the struggle ease up a little.
Another stressor I am facing is my time management skills. With college comes lots of friends and activities to do, but also needing time to do homework and study. I definitely have to improve on putting more time into the studying aspect. There are many different things going on during college to where I can’t keep up with doing them all. I hope this is only a struggle I will have to deal with for only this semester and find out a way to manage my time more effectively so that I may be able to manage these stressors at a safe level.
