The Semester so far...

An aspect of school that is better than I thought it would be is the class sizes, everyone was telling me that they would be huge and it would be hard to get a good education because there would be no personal learning and you would feel like just another grain of sand among the rest and that is not true at all. I have only a few big lecture classes and those classes have separate labs for their class for personal attention to learn the material. Other than that all of the rest of my classes are fairly small and it's easier to learn and get the attention I need when learning.
An aspect of school that is more difficult for me isn't necessarily something that I thought would be easier, I knew it would be difficult for me, but it's the fact that I need to be keeping up with everything that needs to get done. I find myself falling behind because I have so many tasks that need to be done, whether it's school related or just getting through life. I also ride by the seat of my pants and I find it's not the best path for me. I feel so scatter brained and I've NEVER been able to keep a planner or stay organized in the way people tell me will work, so I'm struggling to find the method that works for me. Juggling everything is definitely what I struggle with here at school.
The one thing I would change about my BYU experience so far is how far away I live from campus. I love the wyview dorms they're really nice, way nicer than heritage or helaman, but it's hard to be so far away especially when my source of transportation, the bus, only comes at certain times, it can make things a bit frustrating, and I feel like I'm wasting my time waiting for a bus when I could be getting things done. I wouldn't mind it so much if I had a car, but of course I don't, or even a bike, which is another thing that I don't have. But the thing that would make this situation so much better is if I had a motorcycle. Mostly for the fact that I've always wanted one, it's my dream in life to someday get one, I was hoping in college but of course since I'm a poor college student that's not happening anytime soon. But if I had one, I would be so happy and of course it would solve my living so far away problem! And of course make me very happy just for owning one.
