If you opened a dictionary, and looked up the word "overachiever" you would see a nice photograph of me. I put my all in everything I do, and sometimes it's at the stake of friendships and a social life. I just value my education and other activities more. In 2018, my goal is to stop focusing on school so much and actually enjoy college. Still, old habits are hard to break.
1. You study for the next semester during break
I've spent a large majority of winter break studying for next semester just to make sure I'm on top of everything before the next semester. Others call me crazy, I call it being prepared....okay, maybe it's a little crazy.
2. Everyday you check if syllabi has been posted
Honestly, syllabi are my life. There's nothing better than knowing exactly what's expected for you for next semester and being able to get ahead.
3. Your planner is your bible
This goes along with my syllabi. Being able to plan all my assignments beforehand is so relaxing.
4. Studying is fun for you
It has gotten to the point where sitting and reading textbooks is fun to me. If I have nothing better to do, might as well read my textbook or get ahead in some assignments.
5. You're life feels incomplete if you're not doing something productive
I don't know how to sit down and relax. I fill my schedule with classes, assignments, and extracurricular. I want to always be doing something to further me and my future.
