Hey guys and happy Thursday! So I hate to brag about myself, but I’m feeling AWESOME about school right now. Homegirl has been killin it so hard at Tri-C, so I need to take a post to commend myself for being a little smarty pants. I’ve been doing shockingly amazing in math at the moment and I seriously can’t believe it. I just got a quiz back today that I got a 105% on, I absolutely annihilated the test we took, and when I was getting tutoring after class it was me who corrected the tutor! Who would have thunked that Lil Red is secretly a math whiz?! Not only is math going swimmingly, but my comp and psychology class are going great too. Straight A’s for days. This is the first time in years that I’ve felt confident about my ability to succeed in school. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a very smart girl – but I never applied myself in high school. Did I do homework? No. Did I study for tests? As if. Did I participate? Fat chance. Did I give one single fuck? Absolutely not. But college is completely different – my teachers are rad, I adore my classmates, and for once in my life I want to learn. I forgot how good it felt to gain new knowledge every day and to get rewarded for everything I’m learning with awesome grades. I’ve been working so hard and saying that it’s been paying off is an understatement. And on top of doing exceedingly well in all of my classes I actually have friends in my school setting for once too! On Tuesday during my math class I was telling some of my friends how worried I was for the final exam next week and literally all of them (teacher included!) immediately told me that I was an amazing student and had nothing to worry about….I’m pretty sure that was the first time I’ve ever been told that in my life. It was such an awesome confidence boost that left me feeling so good for the entire day. So my spring classes end next Thursday and then I have a two week break before I start my summer classes. All I have to say is – bring it on. After such a successful semester I feel like I can take on the world. Before I started college, the only thing I prided myself on was being an above average retail worker – and that was okay with me for the time being. But now that I’m well on my way to getting my Associates degree in 2016, I take great joy in priding myself on saying that I’m a college student. I haven’t been this happy and proud of myself in a very long time, and I just had to share it with the world and type it out so I can have this awesome memory for forever. Can’t resist killin shit.

^^^ If you haven’t listened to AWOLNATION’s newest album Run, then I recommend you get on it immediately! It’s been my soundtrack for the entire week!

So there you have it, my smarty pants post! I hope all of you are having a fabulous day and wish me luck on my exams next week! What is your favorite subject in school? What college or high school are you representing right now? I wanna hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah
