Like I previously mentioned, I’ve had issues with concentration on my school-work and tend to leave it to the end. I have a journal but I haven’t consistently written in it since I think junior year of high school? I still write in it here and there but I no longer can find the joy in doing it. My dad always told me growing up, “What the hand writes the brain remembers”, Yet I can’t find myself to word things properly. The less practice I got in reading and writing, and the more I tried avoiding those assignments, the harder it was for me to complete them. Although it’s mentally challenging and exhausting to start learning (and constantly drawing blanks when asked a question) I’m glad I’ve picked myself up this semester and navigated my time management.
