School!

School Days
Oh boy… I am so tired of doing school work I could just scream! I can not wait until Spring Break when we are out of school for a whole week and do not have to worry about any school problems or assignments due the next day, well hopefully at least. I think that I just loved High School too much and now that I am in college it is a big difference. In high school the teachers “guide” you on everything. Everyday they will ask how everyone is coming along and always remind us when the assignment is due. In college, big difference. The teachers expect us to remember when it is due and that if we need help we find it. We have to make all the initiatives our self. Obviously that is how it should be, since we are growing up and that is what college is here for, to get us ready for the real world!
Yes, I love only having 2 or 3 classes a day but the difference is in high school, sure we went to school for seven hours but then when we left school that day, we were done. I maybe had to do an hour’s worth of homework a night and that was not even required. Now we have to study for over 4 or 5 hours a day! I think it is also different for me because I would so much rather have written homework rather than studying because I never know when I have actually thoroughly finished studying whereas a homework assignment- when I finish it is when I stop.
Some days I have to admit I just wish we could be back in middle school!
