Midterms are Coming

Do you know what its like to sit in a 3-hour lecture and have no idea what is going on?

Well this is me. I kid you not, the past 2 weeks, I have been completely lost in all my classes.

Thats why, in exactly a week around this time, I am going to be questioning my decisions. And most likely staying up late.

I have mentioned here and there that I am behind in school. That is not even a joke. I thought it would be a good idea to miss the first 2 weeks of school because the flights were pricy at the beginning of January. I thought that I would be able to catch up. Well I was wrong. Very very wrong.

I have absolutely no idea what is going in my classes. And every week I am falling behind more and more. I don’t know if you’ve ever been in a situation like that before, but its not fun. Because we only have one midterm and a final for each class, and no assignments, you really have to try you best. Unfortunately, my classes are not just reading. Its economics. There are lots of theories and formulas to remember. There are models and calculations to do. So there is a lot counting on this.

I’m not going to pretend. I am worried and stressed a whole week in advance. My first midterm is on Feb 10th and then I have on Feb 12th. And no I have not started studying.

Have you ever been in a situation where you have a lot of work, and you know you should probably start, but you don’t because you have a lot of work? Well thats me.

I don’t have the notes for my game theory class, which is the midterm I have on the 10th. And I have really tried to get it from a friend in my class, but they haven’t sent it and its been 2 week. And I don’t want to be bother them, but I need it. The struggles basically.

And the reason why I haven’t started studying for the midterm on the 12th, which is organizational behaviour is because I don’t know. I’m worried about my game theory exam and that one is open book. So there is no memorizing needed.

Like I said in my last post, I am a mood. I am stressed, overwhelmed, sad, anxious, a complete mess.

Obviously, I am not going to give up. I haven’t yet and I have been through a lot. At the end of the day, I just need to remember that nothing in life comes easy.
