Journal Entry #21

1)  The beginning of my senior year in high school I became very off course. Taking easy classes, not doing my homework and not studying for quiz's and test. My education was starting to became just a game because I preferred to have fun with my friend or go to sporting events. I had the choice to do homework or go to Starbucks with my friends after school, well I choice to go to Starbucks. After the next semester started to get harder I realized that I needed to start getting serious and do my work. To get myself back on course I made certain days to have fun and the other days to concentrate on school work. I knew I had to make this change if I wanted to go to college and achieve in completing my career goals. The benefits I received in changing my course was being able to graduate high school with my classmates and friends. If I didn't change I might have not been able to graduate or handle the transition into college.

2) Today in my life I feel that my education has began to drift off course again. I feel this way because I didn't take the college placements test serious so now I am behind in the classes that I need to be in to complete my career goals. I never research what I needed to do to achieve my goal, sometimes I wish that it can just be handed to me, when I know it can't be. Also I keep putting myself down which is discouraging me to be successful. If I continue to stay off course than my dreams of being a dental hygienist will be a failure and attending college would have been pointless. But I will not let this happen, I'm in college for a purpose and I career goal that I will succeed in.
