I know what it's like to basically not have a choice in whether or not your going to college. I opted for community college, for now at least. I have one of the easiest schedules in the world, too, and I still struggle to get things turned in. I'm not even working right now. I have 3 classes, 2 in the evening and each of them twice a week, and one of them online. Having an online class takes ALOT of motivation, I'll tell you that much. One of my classes is a drawing class (art is the only subject I ever did well in, and enjoyed it very much). I took this class so I would be in a class that I actually enjoy, and even that I'm having difficulties with. I have more time on my hands than any of my peers can even imagine, and I don't get anything done.

So I guess what I'm saying is, don't feel so bad for being lazy or unmotivated when it comes to school. There's more to life than school and work. Or you could totally ignore this post because this is horrible advise, lol! If you have a specific career goal or you want to have a larger variety of oppurtunities in life, think about that when it comes to getting school work done. Don't be like me and wind up regretting not working very hard in the past, because honestly I didn't have any other choice but to go to community college (other not go), because I couldn't get into any other college.
Thanks for this!
