The life of an average student goes as follows, in my eyes: Wake up, get ready, go to school (online of offline), thoroughly follow all regulations of every class, go home, do whatever work is left, study, and take what is left in the day for yourself. The factors and layouts of your day can alternate for this pattern, but it usually follows the schedule of comprehending everything, or at least mostly, of what is going on in class. However, for students like me, patterns can shift greatly due to my attention span being minute (small, not scaling time). Due to this, I see a lot of learning experiences differently, as if it doesn’t heavily intrigue me, I will basically blurt almost everything out and be left at the end of the class or classes completely stranded. And to top that off with my short term memory, I guess I would be just like Dory. During my high school years has been incredibly tough, to say the least, as I’m sure you, the rest of my classmates in your first semester of college, were aware that teachers in that grade range don’t care as much as you need them to, so me not caring about the topic and you just working in a minimalistic sense to just get paid doesn’t bode well for me over time. To be more specific, I remember my entire freshman year was a mixture of me trying to make a name for myself by acting out along with putting maximum effort into learning some of the curriculum. It was, to put it frankly, a nightmare having myself force a social life while acting like I cared about school, and it further lessened my taste for education. Not to mention, the topics being taught weren’t adding on to help it either. However, more into English, that’s probably the only class that I’ve always flourished in. The topics were straightforward and allowed me to be creative and adaptive to the takes I presented. In grade 11, I had a teacher who kept reminding the class that “no answer is wrong as long as you have the means to back it up.” Now I know it seems like something so obvious, but it truly did stick with me anytime I do any form of work. English is the best class to symbolize that phrase as, even me who loses focus after even the smallest sign of boredom, I can’t get bored with writing what I feel about something, as we usually write about what intrigues us anyways. Similar to the stories which spoke about this, writing is just a resemblance of personal character, which is portrayed by how you structure your work.
I really like how you started out with a plan for basically every student’s everyday school life. Life is about being responsible, aware, and prepared to confront any challenges put in front of your future. just as you stated having a low attention span can really make life difficult. There was a time in my life where I would be full of energy, but once I have used it all up I would forget important details given to me earlier in the day.
