I never thought I could...

     I never thought I could shoot lower than an 80 in golf.  Golf is one of my favorite sports that I enjoy playing.  It is a sport that makes me keep wanting to play more and more.  It is very addictive to me.  I have always wanted to shoot par on a golf course which is a 72 and still have yet to do so.  Then I told myself that I just want to break 80.  It took me a lot of years to just break 90 and i was so happy.  But to break 80 meant I had to take off ten more strokes.  I played for my high school and was able to take a few strokes off which got me to about an average of 85 and 86.  It seemed like I was going to be at the score for a long time.  I recently got a job at a golf course which provides great benefits while working there.  I get to come play free golf any time I want and hit free range balls.  So I took advantage of my free golf and played all the time.  It seemed like I took a stroke off every week.  One day I went out with my dad and I played the best golf i have ever played before.  I shot a record low 76.  I have been shooting around 80 ever since.  I never thought I could shoot lower than an 80.

This semester so far has been...

     This semester so far has been extremely stressful.  After graduating high school, I feel like I forgot everything that I have ever learned.  I know sort of what to expect because I had two siblings already in college and told me what it was like.  I also knew that it was going to very stressful.  I tried to get myself in the mindset that I would finish everything in advanced unlike high school.  I have realized that I cannot wait til the last minute to do assignments in college.  Grading is much more strict and important.  I think a big reason why this semester is so stressful is because this is my very first semester in college.  I didnt exactly know what college would be like and how hard it would be.  I also graduated high school with good grades which qualified me to get LIFE scholarship here at Tech.  Now I have to keep a B average which makes things a lot more difficult.  Hopefully next semester will be better.
