A poem about the struggles of partying and being studious.

I woke up early in the morning ready for the celebration

My mood was seen with the smiley face I had

I forgot everything that day and in a mood to party

As I laid on my bed to relax before I get to a party,

I realized I had home works and quizzes the following week


I then got up in a haste

I had to chose between my grades and a Halloween party

What a hard decision it was

People may had said, go party! You have Sunday to study.

However, the issue was having so much stuff to study for an exam which was 60% of your grade in a class.


From that experience, I learned to always use my planner

Although a planner may be good for many but not for all

Another strategy which is good for time management is the use of a calendar.

If I had checked my planner frequently, I may had not be in a dilemma like I was.

Checking your planner/calendar frequently is important in college.


The weekend of Halloween 2016 is a weekend I may never forget because of the experience I had.

It sucked to be all alone on your floor trying to do some work whilst you know you could had being out partying but you chose you grades over parties because of a mistake you did.

Don't wait till the end to do school but also remember, "all work and no play makes a dull boy."

So, don't be all stressed out while doing work and remember, good life, live well.

YOLO, You Only Live Once so make good use of it.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
