SCHOOL
The motivation I have right now is barely even there. Hopefully it will just get me to school. Sadly I'd have to say my video games stole all my motivation towards school. I need to somehow give myself a jumpstart towards school. If I start making my video games a reward when I finish doing homework or studying that might help me. But the challenging part is making me do the schoolwork first. During the beginning of school I was all focused on trying to be the best student there. Then slowly and subtly it all started fading away. I can put my schoolwork first for about a week then it becomes meaningless. Procrastination is my worst enemy in school. Almost everything I do becomes a last minute thing for me. In the future I plan on doing the homework the night I actually get it, studying a week before a test, not the night before. If I follow through with everything I said I should be able to make it through the school year with flying colors. The hard part is making sure I don’t slack in doing the schoolwork and the studying. I’ve just been enlightened. My teacher just explained to me how to view my life in 5 years. And now school feels that more important to me. I hope that I will be able to keep this view on school the same till I finish the semester and or the school year. Now if I ever have a down on school I will most likely talk to my teacher about it so she can spark my interest in it again.

Dear Miss, Henderson
One year has passed and i have reached my short-term goal and currently finsihing up my mid-term goal in college. I have started taking my firetech classes at Mt.Sac college, there are 7 classes i need to do total. I have finished with 3 of the 7. I reached my 1800 in my psr in my game that ive played. I've earned money from playing the game. I am a full time student at Mt.Sac and at FJC. There are certain courses that are challenging but they require alot more studying that i am including in my daily routine. As a result i am able to maintain my 3.0 gpa while having some free time to play my video games and workout to stay in shape for my firetech classes. In warm regards i would like to know how you have been doing this past year.
Sincerely,
Tony Gannaway
