okay so i do online classses. it is very hard to stay focused when doing them. i find in the beinning of each course i tend to stay ahead of the class. but then towards the middle i seem to wait later and later to start on my assignmnents. does anyone else feel this way about there schoolwork? how do you over come these feelings? i try and get all of my work done by sunday so throughout the week all i have to focus on is responding to the discussion boards but it just never seems to work out like that.

Yeah I feel like that too... I imagine that it must be even more difficult for you because you're doing online classes & I'm not but still manage to fall asleep in class. I'm pretty behind in my assignments and such... but still hoping to catch up!

do you prefer doing traditional classes or do you think that online classes would be better for you?

yeah, staying focused is always a challenge amidst the numerous distractions in the world. you seem to be on the right track by doing all the assignments on time or even ahead of time. that's a good sign. well, mylot can be a hobby for you in which you can earn some extra bucks. but do not dwell too much here to affect your studies. your studies still comes on top of priorities. that's very important.
