   Tomorrow, I start my second term of university, and like last term, I am taking only one course. I am kind of curious as to how things will turn out. Will I have learned from my procrastination mistakes from last term? Will I receive a better mark than last term due to more interest (this term I am taking a drawing course and as you may know, drawing is one of my more prominent skills.)? Will the length be bearable even though it will be around 3 hours long? Will I have more time for other things in life this time around, as my course will only be on Fridays? For most of these things, I'll just have to wait and see. But for one thing, I intend to make sure that I will make better use of my time this term than last term. If I get assigned an assignment (which I will), I will work on it as soon as possible, if not sooner than later. I think that will make things so much more easier than how things were last term.

   I think it will be safe to say that I will be doing some more growing this term in terms of becoming a more responsible person in general and also in terms of becoming a better artist. I think that this course will challenge me in both of these ways because from what I've heard about studio courses at university, they assign a lot of projects. This means a lot of practicing my skills as a drawer but also practicing time management.

   On a side note, if things will be better this term than the last, that wouldn't be a far cry from excellent in my opinion. This is because there were many times last term that I was considering quitting the course due to the fact that thought I wasn't doing so well. But in the end, I stuck with the course and I got surprised with a whopping 'B' for my final mark on the course. So if I did well at something I wasn't enjoying (namely writing essays) when I thought I wasn't doing well, how much more am I going to succeed at a subject that I enjoy and will be using to practice good time management with? Like I said before, I'll just have to wait and see.
