My Life

I finished my first college semester! YAY! I have been feeling content lately. After completing the semester with a 4.0 GPA I went straight into summer classes. I did not expect summer classes to be so hard and am glad only to have one My personal goals will be updated to adjust to this new schedule.

Current Goals

• Get a B or higher in all my classes this semester
• Submit all homework one day before the due date this semester
• Get a B in Statistics I over the summer semester
• Save at least $10 every week
• Write on my blog every two weeks for the rest of the year of 2024

I finished all my classes with an A so that is one goal down. I also completed every homework on time. I am overjoyed to say I am appreciating college and setting these goals. I hope to continue to achieve my goals.

My Life

Okay, I am going to set a reminder to do this. I keep promising myself I will write here. I find to get myself to complete a task I need a reminder. With that being said I will write on this blog more. Also, I know I am on a day off in the title but I could not miss the chance to take advantage of the funny numbers.

Current Goals

• Get a B or higher in all my classes this semester
• Submit all homework one day before the due date this semester
• Save at least $10 every week
• Write in my blog once a week for the year
• Write on my blog every two weeks for the rest of the year of 2024

Currently hitting my first two goals!!!! I am so happy to say I have an A in all but one class! I have not missed a single assignment! I am currently saving $5 a week. Not my goal but I do not have much to save in the first place. I changed my goal to write on the blog to be a bit more realistic. This is because of my limited time due to school.

4/20

Though this is not written on 4/20 I think we should still take the time to look at something to fit the mood. Here are some stoner quotes I think you will enjoy.

• “Sativa to change the things I can, indica to accept the things I can’t.” – Unknown
• “I don’t do drugs, though. Just weed.” - Dave Chapelle
• “Couples who blaze together, stay together.” - Unknown
• “It’s 420 somewhere.” - Unknown
• “The biggest killer on the planet is stress, and I still think the best medicine is and always has been cannabis.” - Willie Nelson
• “I got high, and forgot I wasn’t supposed to get high.” - Ricky Williams
• “Is marijuana addictive? Yes, in the sense that most of the really pleasant things in life are worth endlessly repeating.” - Richard Neville

Though these quotes are light-hearted I would like to state something. Please be of legal age in your country before consuming THC. Not to mention be aware of the risks and side effects of the use of THC before considering anything!
For an overview of the current understanding of cannabis, I highly encourage you to listen to this podcast. As of 4/4/24, this is our current understanding of the effects. For the podcast citations refer to the podcast on Spotify to find the citations page.

My Life

Forgot to do the last 3 weeks but I am hopping to post more. If I am able to my goal is to post consistently for the remainder of this year. Though it may be hard to balance a school and work, I will push myself to post even if it is not my best work.

Current Goals

• Get a second job within the next two weeks
• Get an B or higher in all my classes this semester
• Submit all homework one day before the due date this semester
• Save at least $10 every week
• Write in my blog once a week for the year
• Wite every two weeks in my blog for the remaining year

So currently I have removed one goal. This is because I have gotten an increase in hours at my job allowing me to afford car insurance.

My Life

Hello, it's me again. For now on I will start taking a voice again on my blog. I will still be doing current events each week, but I will also be focusing on my life and current goals.

Currently I just started college a few weeks ago and I am really excited to say I love it. Having the ability to learn and focus on my work with the motivation I have newly acquired has helped me a ton. This semester I am taking four courses which I think will be easy to balance with two jobs, but we will see. I currently only have one job, but I am looking for a second to pay the bills. Hopefully this semester will go well. To help and ensure it does I have some goals.

Current Goals

• Get a second job within the next two weeks
• Get an B or higher in all my classes this semester
• Submit all homework one day before the due date this semester
• Save at least $10 every week

I love this song. Though it is short I think it has a very catchy beat.
