My Secret to College success

             

           There was a time in my life where I once believe that college was not an option for me. When that moment came upon me I cried. I was in disbelief and I refused to accept that fate. I am number 5 of 6 siblings and although i may not be the first to graduate from college I will be the second. This was the lowest point in my life. I couldn't even find the courage to keep trying. It was after this that i discovered my worth. What I deserve and what I will and will not endure. I started to find that the greatest love of all is the love I have for myself. I had to start fighting for myself before i let anyone else fight for me. There weren't many people willing to fight for me but that didn't matter because I believed in myself. I believe that I was worth a college degree. I was worth a school scholarship. i realized that what other people fated me with wasn't my real destiny. For my destiny is bigger than they know. My destiny is brighter than they allowed me to shine and I will prosper for much longer than they can fathom. I believed that I would make it to college and I did. I believe that i can make it through college and so I will. Believing in yourself is the most important secret to being successful and this is my testimony.

College + Life = Struggle

          College students often struggle to keep up with their schoolwork while also keeping up with life. Life comes quick and when college is involved it multiplies. School in itself is a personal job, you have to manage your time, grades and life all at once. School is more advanced and challenging than what it used to be. Many people who push to achieve an education but also have day-to-day life problems struggle. Colleges often try to be more flexible for their students and also teachers so that everyone can prosper. Most students have a job and also have to balance school and work life. This often causes stress and once we are stressed all hell breaks loose. Your hair isn’t done, you look like a bum you got 6 assignments due tomorrow and you got to work til’ 12 pm tonight. That is what you call quitting time. (lol,JK) College is the first real taste of independence for a lot of people. This means that many of the decisions that were once made for y...

MLA Citation

       I always happen to format my paper all the way wrong and I don’t know how. I always read the instructions given by my teacher and all the necessities but some thing seems to always go wrong . It isn’t hard to understand they are pretty easy instructions to follow, but my problem is the comprehension part. I turned my paper in around five-ish and I come to class only to find out I formatted my paper incorrectly. It’s in a some kind of MLA Format, just not the right one. In text citations and the works cited is also easy to follow just because Mr. B has so so so so so so so many documents on citations. Easy access, yessir.
