I've gotten to a point where I'm starting to not care. It happens every semester. I start out attending every class, handing in every assignment. But then something happens. I either make myself work too hard, or too much is asked of me.
This semester it was my presentation. It works like a domino affect. Because I had to prepare for my presentation, I couldn't do the homework I usually do. Since the homework wasn't done by the time it usually gets done, I had to stay up very late to make sure it got finished (5am). Because I stayed up so late, I had to sleep in and miss some classes, which if I had attended I would have heard some important information. And since my biological clock is confused, I have a hard time being consistently motivated (as if I didn't have a hard time as it was).
In short, I'm quite frustrated with myself and my situation. I'm at a point where substantial damage hasn't been done yet, but if things go wrong at the end of the semester, I'll know it all started here.

We can't help much with the workload or sleep patterns. But we will pray that you're able to stabilize your schoolwork and sleep so that you can get to classes and get the work done. If it helps, I think many people have this struggle at university. We encourage you to persevere, and again, we'll be praying for you.
thanks =)
again, sorry i didn't read this at the time but i think i did hear about it and prayed. did this start something that continued to the end of the semester?
It did carry on in some aspects to the end of the semester. For example I gave up on keeping up with a lot of reading for my classes, and also stopped handing in homeworks and only focused on labs because they were more vital. Thankfully I've passed the classes I was struggling with though, and really excelled in the ones which were easier for me!
