As you all know, we are very quickly approaching the new semester, meaning new classes and different schedules. Currently, I have first block study hall every day, so I don't have to come to school until 9 ish, on the days I have to go in. Having a first block study hall is very nice because I am able to sleep in and it makes me feel less rushed in the morning if my alarm goes off at the right time HAHA. Another, plus about having a first block study hall is that, since you are going into school later, there is less traffic trying to get to school and all the buses are already gone.
Unfortunately, I don't have a first block study hall next semester, which is going to be a big change for me. Having not had to come into school until 9:15 to having to be at school by 7:30, isn't going to be a very fun switch for me. I go from only be in school for 3 blocks, to being in school all day, with the expectation of my third block study hall I will have on ACE days.
I am definitely going to miss being able to sleep in on the days I have school, but luckily wake up early most days, but it was always nice being able to get some extra sleep.
Besides, having fewer study halls next semester, my classes are hopefully going to be a little easier and more manageable for me. I am currently in 3 core classes and next semester I will only be in 2 core classes with 2 elective classes. Therefore, I'm hoping for a good second semester and end to my junior year. Can't believe I am already halfway done with junior year... it's INSANE.

I am so excited for the new classes... then we are done with anatomy haha! I have never had a block 1 study hall, but wish I did. At least I can leave early next semester! -Alyssa Ernst
ReplyDeleteHonestly, adjusting to a new and early schedule might be on of the hardest tasks you'll have to do. However, I really appreciate how you evenly divided your work load into two semesters rather than stockpile them all into junior year like several other students have done. Many kid's find their work load to be daunting and several that I've talked to are feeling constantly stressed or even depressed about their work load during this pandemic.
