School is Fun! (?)

It's strange that I enjoy it so much. In the past I followed the trend of my peers in detesting school, tests, assignments and such. Now I get a new kind of enjoyment from it. I actually enjoy doing assignments. I excell at what I do.

Okay. Now I must admit I'm being two faced. I just had a heart to heart moment with myself. I'm being decietful to a degree. Decietful to you and me. I'm not communicating at a personal level with my writing professor. I am under the impression that responses from readings are due each day, but a little unsure. Unsure because I wasn't there when this was explained (if it is so). The first day I missed because I was a new student and began classes a couple days late. My first day responses were due from a reading. Yesterday (my second day at this class) responses were due again. I didn't have a response, I hadn't done the reading. I suspect both of these were assigned on the first day, but I'm unsure. I don't remember my professor assigning anything of that sort, but maybe I just didn't hear it. I haven't talked to my professor about it so I wouldn't know the answer. This is the result of letting fear control my actions. I know when I feel uneasy I need to talk to someone. I've finally decided to do that, and you're that somone.

Anyways, I have class tomorrow and I don't want to start a trend for myself. I've been in these kinds of situations before and I'm quick to freeze up and not do anything about it. Especially not tell anyone. I've gone months hoping no one notices that I'm hiding away from my emotions and assignments. God forbid anyone know I'm incompetent and can't understand directions or communicate with people. I'm preparing to break this old habit of mine. I'm being reborn as a masterful person. One who can easily talk with his professor about the miscommunication that has happened and remedy it.

Wow. That was big. I didn't even see it coming. I was going to tell you how much I enjoy my Computer Science class, but that was a pressing issue. I'll celebrate now by telling you of my successes. My classes overlap on tuesdays so I'm a half hour late to my CS lab. Testing each piece of my program as I went so I could easily catch any mistakes (which there were a few) I completed the lab elegantly and was one of the first few to complete. This morning in class we had a quiz. When asked to identify a few out of several errors I easily spotted and corrected (not just the few) all of them . There were a few of these kinds of questions and I made short work of them. I was the first one to finish. This made me beam with joy. I enjoy succeding. And I'm not rushing through any of this either. I'm taking my time being thurough. I work slowly and stedily. I am good at what I do.
