time management

I have high expectations for myself when it comes to managing my time. I have always been on task with my homework assignments, being on time for class and work, and anything else that comes along. However, there are times when you just can't do EVERYTHING. I hate the feeling of being behind, even if I only miss one class I feel so lost. Consequences include: not completing everything when its due, which may cause my grade to lower, and simply not being there for the teachers lecture makes me feel less confident in what I had learned or try to pick up on my own. I use my weekly planner quite often. It keeps me organized and helps me to manage my time more efficiently. I have a sense of relief when everything I had planned goes well. It proves to everyone I know how to manage my time. The busier I am, the better I seem to manage my time. That seems bazaar, but so very true. The more time I have on my hands the more I take that time for granted and procrastinate. Usually, putting things off until I have to rush to finish them, which is not the way I like to do things. So, I try my hardest to stay busy. During high school is when I picked up a lot of my organizational skills. They are something you can't learn from someone else, because everyone has their own way of doing things. Now, in college, I use the same time management just possibly trying to better them. I could use a more designate time set aside just for my homework, or maybe even use some tutoring on campus. Also, still searching for a job to help keep me busy. Other than that, my time management skills are not too shabby.

Butler Resources

It's normal when a girlfriend comes to you with her boy problems, but this was beyond my control. She needed advice from a professional counselor. She's in love with a boy. He left for college and left her at the same time. Left her alone to find out she is pregnant with his child. Too young to raise a child alone; however, at Butler Community College there are early childhood classes to help her learn how to care for her child the right way. Taking classes and taking care of a new child may be difficult for a mother so online classes might be helpful! Right now, so much responsibility has been placed in front of her that the thought of being successful might be vague in her life, but here are some tips. She was very concerned about how she would be able to attend school and support herself and her child financially. At BCCC, there is financial help. I hope these resources are useful!
