school is a struggle.

again, its been a long time since i have posted anything on my blog. but its now that counts i suppose!

life here has been so busy lately. school has been kicking my butt and draining me of any energy that i have. last year my course load was pretty heavy.. 8 courses a semester with 3 labs with 33 hours of class a week, not counting extra curricular activities and homework. but somehow i was able to manage everything and keep a 3.9 GPA.
this year however is not the case. i still have 8 courses, 3 labs, and only 30 hours of class a week. but for some reason my "A" average seems to be struggling. everything seems harder with not enough time to finish anything. throughout my schooling years, i have never really been the "A" student. my grades were never terrible, but never great. so finally last year with some SERIOUS studying and concentration i was finally the "A student" i have always wanted to be. now, its back to a range in the spectrum.. A's, B's, and i havent quite hit the C's yet. (let's hope i dont)

hopefully things will start looking up soon. i just finished my applications for ryerson and the university of toronto, so there is no turning back now. my grades need to be as high as they can be so i can get accepted for next fall.
