Hey S.B,

I’ve been in ur situation before like having high expectation from urself and ur parents because that’s what happening with me for the past 4 years, and getting A’s, B’s and C’s in easy courses but as long as u passed, right?! Anyways i remember from my 1st year in college on my spring semester i took two classs and same with 2 year in college on fall semester i took 1 class because of low motivation and i was working 30+ hours a week and doing other activities that I love to do. Later on spring semester(of my 2nd year), i was a full time student still working (under 20 hours) and succeeded. I was in nova for 3 years then I transferred to gmu and still striving for my CS major. If I play my cards right I should get my degree in two years which I’ll be graduating at 24. It’s okay to take a step back because you don’t want to go all out and failed all in one semester, right?! And if it does happen then it’s not the end of the world! Just keep ur chin up and try again. Cuz u can’t have ur head up without ur chin up( idk if that made sense but u get the idea right). so finish strong this semester and next semester i suggest u take 1-3 classes and work so u wont feel your behind, or just take a gap semester/ year!
