Although it is nice that I'm bored, since it's much better then last semester where I was super stressed, it just seems so unfair that it was so unbalanced. I had Accounting and Math in the same semester last semester, and although I love math, I have to work really hard at it. Accounting was horrible with homework too, I should have asked to get it reduced because I just couldn't do it. I had the math reduced and it went much better after that. It's just because I understood Accounting easily in theory, but it didn't like me in practice. At least I had Art that semester, though I had such trouble at the end because I went overboard on the summative.
This semester I'm so tired of it. My hardest class is Philosophy, but since I pretty much have two periods to work on it since I have this really boring business class with no homework and English (which is easy for me, even though I have a really harsh marker) that it's not keeping me busy enough. Ugh, how do I make myself a little more stimulated in class? I have a crush on a guy in my business class, which is making that class more bearable.

The only way I have found to focus in class is have something distracting me. ie internet. I fall asleep when I am bored in class. Or take notes. Maybe take a snack that you like in there and every five minutes or so eat some.

Just some random thoughts.

if i get bored during college, i usually blame the teachers for being boring. good teachers need to be able to motivate the students and not make the classes boring.

Whenever I get bored in class, I either sleep or thumb through some of my textbooks.
