Struggling today. I’m having a hard time in one class (Intro to Javascript) and feeling like maybe I need to give up on college. I’m afraid with all of my health issues that it’s pointless. Maybe I need to take a semester off and do more artistic stuff? I don’t know.
I emailed my instructor about it, so we’ll see what he says. I’m trying really hard not to let it get me down but it’s challenging.
Having ADHD, I’ve never felt like I took good or pretty notes like other people in school. I still don’t feel like I do, but this coding class I’m in makes me look like I can take notes like anyone else! Now if only I understood it better…
And my thoughts went from that poor saxophonist to look at that flexibility and strength. Oh wait, looking at the flexibility they might have had a type of EDS.
Still iconic and brilliant. Much wow.
The blessed time of Cab Calloway of his orchestra and his extraordinary dancers.

Wife and I are at the ER. She’s been having what her neurologist (our neurologist? We see the same guy) think are seizures. She’s been having small tremors off and on since February. We think it was caused by Paxil, which she rapid detoxed from under medical care a few months ago.
Today the whole body tremors/shaking are constant. With all her medical issues, I try to stay positive and strong. We do it for each other.
Hubby is at home getting cleaning done for the plumbing. It’s just another day in our life. It’s weird.
Today’s studyblr is brought to you by DNA. I’m working on my forensic science class today and it’s fascinating. I really do love this class.

SOMETIME IN THE LAST WEEK MY SCHOOL PUT UP A LARGE BANNER DEDICATED TO THE :-) EMOTICON
Why are universities and colleges obsessed with packing as much as possible into a shortened term? I’m trying to figure out where and what I want to get degree in, and I keep running into the issue of 6.5-8 week terms that are normally 14-16 weeks long.
It’s fine and dandy if you can adjust to that schedule and learning pace, but I have several disabilities that make this extreme learning obsession impossible and very defeating. Not everyone can do that and so many schools don’t accommodate for that because it’s built into the basic degree structure! Does anyone else feel the insanity of this? Get your degree in half the time but burn out before you finish. That’s super healthy! /sarcasm
you don't have to be "burnt out" to justify tasks being difficult for you. Being autistic or having ADHD makes TASKS DIFFICULT INHERENTLY. WE ARE DISABLED.
