Journal #2 | 4/4/24

       At the current stage of my writing process, I think I’m well off so far. I don’t think I’ll have that much trouble other than time-management concerns. What I am worried about though is still the Research Paper. The research outline has helped me out significantly but I still require better articles/sources. I have found some but I still need more that provide what I need. But, for now, I think I’m doing great. I was pretty stressed last week with the homework, and Fall Semester class signups added on top of the Research Draft but, I survived. I’m not as stressed and I felt more relieved that I was able to finish everything so I’m proud of that fact.

       My goal right now is to remain vigilant and stress-free, hoping to complete the semester with a good grade. Hopefully, I do well with my Research Paper too. I feel this semester is going by rather quick and work-heavy. These couple weeks have just been work and work and a lot of things have never crossed my mind. I’m usually not the type to ask for extensions because I don’t think I’d need them. Yet, I’ve been submitting some of my assignments late but I am thankful that the Professor is being lenient on that.

       I just don’t want to think about work anymore which is why I’m really looking forward to that Spring Recess that I believe should’ve happened way earlier. I have a lot on my plate and I would really appreciate that break any time soon. Speaking of that break, if CUNY Spring Recess was more aligned with other colleges, I probably would’ve felt way more relieved since midterms would probably be right after it. Also, it would’ve been a great opportunity to go on a Road Trip with friends and just enjoy ourselves before we come back to more work. The Winter Recess we had was the best break but it felt short-lived. Hopefully, I can make the best out of that one week of Spring Recess before I come back to three Finals that I’m not confident about.

    I definetly agree this semster has gone by quick and the workload was definitey more than my last semster. And yea spirng break was super late this year which is mad annoying because when we come back finals are in like a week.
