1st Semester of College
Hello Everyone! My name is Jose Renteria and I attend Oxnard College as a freshman for those of you who don’t know that. It has been half a semester since I have attended college and I have to admit that I really enjoy it. I like the fact that I can pick out my own schedule the way I want it to be. Even though college is great and everything there are things that bug me. One of those things is grades, I keep worrying about my grades because I don’t know what they are just yet. The reason why I’m worried is because I want to have straight A’s and do great in college especially since it’s my first year. A challenge I face in school right now is my Chemistry class because I’m trying so hard to understand it and do great in the class but right now that isn't doing so well for me. The best choice for me right now is to get some tutoring which I am highly considering since I struggled on my second exam the other day. The workload right now is no big struggle, it’s manageable but I do end up sometimes spending some nights up just to finish my homework. The reason why I am going through all of this is because I want to make something out of myself which I think is the ultimate pay-off because in the future I will be enjoying life and have the job that always wanted. The reasons that keep me motivated is my future, my girlfriend, and family. Thanks to these three reasons and people I’m not going to stop from trying my best in school and doing all I can to pass and excel in all of my classes. These same reasons are what keeps me going to study and stay in school because I know if I stop now I will forever regret it. In the future I will look back and think all about the things that made me struggle and what I did to achieve what I wanted. Well, this is basically what has happened on my first semester of college. To those of you who are in the same boat as I am, I wish us all luck so that we can get through the struggles and achieve our goals. Best of luck to us! For those of you who are still here following my story please stick along, I guarantee you that you will not be disappointed. Until next time, this is Jose Renteria signing out.

Do the work is always a struggle I have all the time. Steve jobs once said that it's impossible to connect the dots in the future but you can connect the dots in the past so keeping work strong on your goals in college and you will get where you want.
