Thursday:
...Noooo, it can't be 6:45 already! It feels like i just closed my eyes and fell asleep...
...2 hours until engineering lab, I have no motivation to go at all...
...Well, here I am, clueless about where to even begin with this CFU(check for understanding)...
...I can't wait until the weekend...
Friday
...Whew, no engineering classes today...
...Wait a minute, isn't this what I signed up for...
...I don't know if I'm cut out to be an engineer...
...Is this really what I'm going to be doing for the next 4 years...
...So far my favorite class to go to is English...
...I never even really liked English...
...I don't know what to do...
Saturday
...Finally, I can relax...
...Its the weekend! Why am I not relaxed...
...I have to write my english blogs...
...I have to do my ENGR chip homework...
...I have to write out my chemistry lab...
...I have to do my engineering postlab...
...I should start my engineering project...
...Its 7:00pm and I haven't done anything yet...
...Highschool was a joke compared to college...
...I'm doing homework on a Saturday night...
I tryed to change it up this week.
I've attempted to post a "stream of consciousness" of what has been going through my mind the last couple days. Hope it makes sense.

i like this post alot, and i can definitly relate. high school was a joke, i never stressed out about homework like i do now, i never found myself doing homework on saturdays, but now i got, like you lab homework, weekly, blogs, on top of math assignments. all of this was definitly a shock and a reality check for me relating to my major as well...
ROTFL...i cannot stop laughing! mostly because I thought I was reading my own thoughts! While all my Indian friends, who are mostly non engineering majors, party on weekends; Im here finishing assignments, commenting on people's blogs, writing my own blog posts, thinking about how to start thinking about my engineering projects. While my high school was not any joke, in fact, it was much more stressing than college; Purdue is turning out to be difficult because I have never studied this way. When I get used to this and learn to manage my time more efficiently, I think I should encounter fewer problems. Also I have always been sure about engineering and know that it is not the easiest major in the world, so that knowledge helps too.
I must say, I am a little relieved that someone else is feeling the same way I am! While I did work hard, high school was nothing compared to this. I find myself thinking...is this really for me? And it scares me that college really is hard work. And after that I try to convince myself...if it was easy, everyone would do it. In the end, you will be glad you worked hard! So I do spend a good part of my weekend on homework and studying! I also remind myself that I have to find time for fun too or I will go crazy! College should be an all around good experience :)
