When college fever becomes college fever

[matt1993]

Well, as implied by "sick" being my mood on the previous post, I managed to catch a fever yesterday. :( It's getting better, but not much better.

Also, I had assumed that I'd have more time to work on my creative vortexes during my first week of college because that would be a rare instance of me not having classes or having to prepare for my next semester of school, but no - there was a "move-in week" with an event to go to each day, so almost no time at all for creative vortexes. And, since I came up with new creative vortexes this week, I'm gonna be worse at focusing in class than I was when I moved in :(

Time until my first college class

It will be all right!

[matt1993]

No, it wasn't :(

I mean in the long run, not just after one class. Keep going and stay positive!

Thanks...

Hope you enjoyed your first class.

Thanks for hoping I did, but I didn't enjoy it that much - I was almost late for it and it turned out to have an essay almost every day except the first day and maybe the second day. :(

You have to do an essay almost every day? That sounds hard - I thought doing maths and computer science you wouldn't really need to write essays.

No, I'll have an essay in English almost every day. I'm also taking English because it's one of my core classes.

I wish I could record my class everytime I can't focus...it would be easier *sigh*

good luck and hope you feel better :)

I'm actually kinda doing that anyway - I have a Livescribe smartpen, which can record audio as you write notes. I haven't actually used it in class yet, though, seeing as how today I only got my syllabus for each class.

And thanks!

you should use it if it will help you get used to things, I need one ASAP because while you get distracted with "CREATIVE vortexes" I only get distracted with random thoughts that aren't useful at all.

Sometimes I get distracted with thoughts that aren't useful at all, too. And while I have enough creative vortexes to keep me distracted from anything important, I don't have enough to call myself creative.
