Through out the Fall 2014 semester at Fullerton College, as a novice introduced to a new climate, my classes have started off pretty well-rounded which gave me the first insight of how the rest of my time in college will be like. It is stressful to keep the mind motivated toward school, but it will end up being beneficial to have the knowledge that I would not  have gained if I were to skip it. The challenges that off set my motivation though are situations where I believed that I knew the material in the class, then finding out the opposite of my  internal instincts. Although the occasions when this happens is inept, but we can only try to confront these obstacles with exuberance and positive attitude to overcome them. It also is hard to be frugal with time-management as it dissipates like an evaporating puddle during summer's sunlit sky. Too many things to do with only such little time.Initially, it is already brought to my attention, after I had taken Counseling 50, that if I am not going stay motivated along my path in Fullerton College than why should I be here?  For this is a message that I continuously repeat to myself everyday when I wake up, for it is a candid question to consider. But what I tend to do to keep my head on straight with commitment/ focus in school is continuously go skate at the local park, at least twice a week. As I have also mentioned, I take a trip down to my favorite fishing hole every weekend too and go blow off some steam by emphatically gorging the body with adrenaline after the hook is set on the most minute vibration in the line. Those two things are what motivate me to do well in daily and they additionally hold
 the screws in my head intact. I am motivated that I can succeed in college and in through out life.
