Hard Time

One thing that I never denied was that, as a student, life is not as hard as a true adult——who have their responsibilities toward their families, their jobs and other stuff. However as an international student, things can be a little bit different. I am always facing problems like nostalgia, social network with others, even physical damage made by quick move and flip on the way to my early 8 am classes. In all off these, for me, the hardest problem will be schedule.

Just be honest. Before the days in UCSB, I really had a year of leisure after application to college, easy class and free time to watch Twitch and writing fun things I love. Really not much plans, because there was no need for one. Living in a small high school campus, there was also really not much things for you to do.

But UCSB is different. This huge university is different. 800 people’s big lecture replaces my 20 classmate small classes, small campus grow up to a huge area including numberless buildings. I walk, then begin to run on my scooters between intermediary 10 or 15 minutes, to catch up front seat of lecture hall——thanks for being single all the time, there is usually no place for a couple.

But anyway my life is getting hard, my schedule is messing up. In Tuesday and Thursday I get 7 and half hour of classes, and tons of homework, preview or review along with them. Until now I am still in the trap of planning, just remembering I still have a ling3c weekend to write. Meanwhile, I am pretty annoyed to find out the fact that I don’t need to hand the rough draft in on Monday since I’ve worried for it during the whole weekend because of not enough editing from CLAS. Two midterm and one essay deadline next week is waiting for me, so let me hope things won’t go hellish.

I am still in the mess. But I still hold the hope when I see A on my homework and quizzes. So hope and good luck for me, there maybe a way to go, a highly efficient myself during these challenges.
