pressure

As I read the essay on "college pressures", I never thought about it before until the past week. I had difficulting understanding how to make fraction quivalent and I have been struggling with that chapter since I was in 6th grade and now that I am taking arithmetics; I have been stressing it all semester. I had the biggest panic attack and high blood pressure because I was scared that I wasn't going to be able to pass my class. I was upset and unpleased that I understand algebra to the fullest and I couldn't possibly find a way to master fractions. I was nervous all day thinking about not passing, not succeding and failing at life. I crashed and burned. School is so important to me. With work and resently my second job, family and school I was overwhelmed and needed to find a solution. I did. I quit my job at Forever 21 and remained with only one. My great co-worker Denise really helped me master fractions in less than a 5 minutes as we set a dte for studing. Tutors have been at it to help me and I just simply didn't comprehend. College does bring alot of pressure in everyway now that I think about it, but it's worth it.
