How to Make Your Senior Year at GCA Very Good
It's nearing the end of the school year, and its kind of hard to believe that next year will be my last year at GCA. And since its my last year at home in Taiwan before I head off to college in the US, I plan on making the most of it.
One of the first things I'm going to do is trying to get rid of my habit of procrastination. As students who have it know, the spirit of procrastination is one of your greatest enemies in getting any homework or studying done. You either do what you enjoy instead of you're supposed to be doing or stare blankly at the work in front of you, reluctant to lift a finger, and end up with such a big pile of work you wonder how you're ever going to finish it.
The second thing I'm going to do is to spend more time with my friends and family. I've realized that I spend way too much time staring at a computer screen or buried in books and not enough time with other people. In fact the only person I really spend a substantial time talking to is my younger sister. That's just sad. I just need to figure out a way of spending time with my parents without getting nagged at for my schoolwork. Any suggestions?
