Tackling Math Assignments, Flare-ups, and College Life: My Day as a Commuter Student

Image
You know that feeling when you finally get a good night’s sleep after staying up way too late? 🙌🏾 That was me this morning! I stayed up until 3 AM on Tuesday (because why not? 😅), and after dragging myself through the day yesterday, I finally caught up on some much-needed rest. Now I’m sitting in the commuter lounge, wide awake and ready to finish up this math assignment before my class in 30 minutes. 💪🏾 Math is… well, let’s just say it’s not my favorite subject. 🤦🏾‍♀️ Graphs, charts, and formulas? I’d rather not. But I’m determined to power through. I had two tutoring sessions yesterday (because yes, I needed that much help 😂), but the tutor could only get me through so much in the time we had.

Can we talk about fairness here for two seconds? She had the nerve to say the test was “easy.” Easy for who?! 😑 Definitely not me. I didn’t even finish answering half of it because, guess what, I didn’t know how to solve the problems! I’m sitting there staring at the paper like it’s written in another language. 😵‍💫 And now she says she’s going to take my “best score.” HA! Jokes on me, because I don’t even have a best score! 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’m trying so hard to keep up, but this whole situation is beyond frustrating. 🙃 I have a tutor, but it’s like what’s the point if I’m not even allowed to show what I can d...
