My First Blog Entry

HELLO :)

Well to explain the title and my idea for the blog, I will begin by explaining why I am blogging in the first place. First off, I love to write and often find myself writing unnecessary things all for the sake of writing! Secondly, I am a college student and often find myself motivated to do my best at the beginning of a new semester but then quickly unmotivated to do my assignments when I realize how time consuming and uninteresting the assignments are. THEREFORE, I have decided THIS SEMESTER I will blog about my struggles, success and overall challenges that a college student faces in today's world, all in hopes that my blogging will be a stress reliever and a motivator!

I give you: "The Reasons For College Drop-outs".

My classes begin January 11th... 4 days from now. I spent the whole week trying to decide how to pay for classes and books. I know it seems last minute, but I pushed off the obstacle during the Holidays in order to enjoy the Holidays. After dropping and adding back the same classes every Monday for two Months in order to keep the schedule I wanted but wait to pay for the classes AND after searching numerous websites, like Craigslist and Half.com, for lower prices on books I still ended up spending.... $907 for 6 classes at a community college and $400 for books. THEREFORE...

Reason #1 for College Drop-Outs: College is too expensive!

P.S. I love that this website offers SPELL CHECK because I can not spell!
