Today I feel overwhelmed. I have so many things to do. I thought by starting a new semester I would at least be prepared for what was going to be happening, but I was wrong. It seems that time is moving along without me because with a new semester I can’t seem to get things done, and if I do get them done, I have more to do. During the first semester it was ok for me to be confused because I have never been to college, but now that I have been in college for five months you would think I would know what to expect.
When first semester ended I was so excited because I was half way through my freshman year. It was a year almost gone, which got me one step closer to reaching my goal of becoming a veterinarian . I took all my finals and was pretty sure that I did well on them. I had no worries. I took care of my financial business and registered on time for my classes. Now I was about to have a break and be able to relax for once since all I did was study and work during school. During my break I relaxed like I said I would and didn’t worry about coming to school because I already knew what to expect, but yet again I was wrong. It seemed the first day showed me how wrong I was and how I never expected to feel overwhelmed.
As I walked on campus again I was happy to be back because to my surprise I missed it. I missed going to work, having classes, and being in my dorm. But that missed feeling soon turned into an overwhelming feeling when I started getting a lot of homework, having to study for tests every night, and also having to work. It was barley the third day of school and I already had homework for three of my classes, including a test to study for. On top of that I also work everyday until six in the evening.
Sometimes I feel like crying because I feel so overwhelmed with things to do. But instead I take a deep breath and relax for a little. I go either on my space or lay down on my bed for about fifteen minutes. Then I go back to what I was doing. I remind myself that I can do it because, hey I survived last semester.

I totally understand how you feel. I thought myself that second semester would be alot easier than the first but I too was wrong. It got even harder, and I know what you mean when you say when you get things done, you have more things to finish. And yes, it is overwhelming. Think of it this way, we'r half way through our first year and then its a break for summertime. The stress and hard work will be worth it in the long run when you get to your career as a veterinarian.
I understand what you are talking about. That is exactly how i feel too. I thought that the second semester was going to be just like the first but I was wrong.I feel like I have piles of work that seems to get bigger and bigger.It is good to know that I am not the only one who feels this way.
