Second semester

The first semester of college went by very quickly and it certainly had its ups and downs. This past semester i was injured so I could not play the fall tournaments for tennis and I had a bit more free time but unfortunately I chose not to spend it wisely. I procrastinated on many of my assignments and I did not show up to some of my classes regularly. This semester, my shoulder has healed so I will be playing the spring duo matches and I will have much less time. Because I did not get the grades I had planned for before coming to college, I made it my goal to go out and party less and spend more of my time focusing on my schoolwork. I had some downfalls in the past but I am making progress to my goal of attaining a college degree. To assure that I can stay on track, I have surrounded myself with good people who care about me and would not want to see me fail, and as they help me, I keep them on the straight path as well. I am hopeful for this semester, even though I have been working intensively I have also been having a lot of fun. Happiness is one of the key ingredients to a successful life and my endeavors, as well as my friends, are keeping me entertained and overjoyed.
