For
the past few months I have been taking statistics. It has been super stressful and time consuming, and there were a lot of tears! I put a lot of effort into the assignments and tests,
but no matter how hard I tried, it just wouldn't click. It took me forever to
complete problems, and I had trouble getting assignments in on time. When the
time came for the final, I realized that I would have to basically ace it to
pass the class.
Recently, I started watching Grey's Anatomy, and I’ve been
obsessed. I like how Dr. Grey is able to still work in the hospital and focus
on her patients, even when she is clearly having problems. In the episode I
watched yesterday Meredith found out she had a half-sister, and even had to
help treat her. She did that without letting her personal issues get in the
way. Granted she did have a meltdown when she was finished, but those are
allowed every once in a while. J When I was getting ready to take my finals yesterday, I
posted a photo to my Instagram and Facebook. It was a picture of a notebook
that said "Meredith Grey didn’t become a surgeon and get to marry Dr.
McDreamy by not studying." I knew my final wouldn't be fun, and there was
a good chance I would fail the class, but I decided to do my best and hope it
was enough. Maybe my teacher would find a way to let me pass because he knew
I'd been working hard? I could always hope!
Yesterday
I finished my final, and I ended up failing the class. I took me a while to
finish the final, and I had a breakdown with tears in the middle of it. Actually,
that happened quite a few times while I was taking statistics...luckily it was an online class.
But every
time I got stressed or was having a meltdown I would text or message two of my
friends. They both talked to me until I was able to calm down. Sometimes they
would hang out with me just so that I could take a break and forget the stress
of the class. If it were not for them I would not have been able to make it
through this class. I do have to take it over again, but I know that I can get
through it and
that it will all be worth it in the end. If there's one thing I've
learned from Dr. Grey, it's that I can accomplish whatever I set my mind to.
This is just part of the path to becoming what I want to be and living the life
I want to live.

Maybe because you have only taken the class already, it may be easier this time around. You know some of the material and now will have a BETTER understanding of it and you know to expect.
