My first question comes from a senior at Sonoma State. She told me she was completely unmotivated to do her work and to get things done for school, and wants to know what she should do.
First, I'd say welcome to my life. As a senior it's hard to see the point of why you are continuously doing work that doesn't seem to be contributing to your education, so in the end some one else who you've probably never met decides that you've taken enough classes and learned enough to earn a piece of paper that suddenly says you're smart. It can be beyond frustrating.
But in the end, you have to look to the result. It may not seem like anything you're doing is helpful and something that you'd need to know, but it is the final step into obtaining your degree, which is becoming necessary to get a job now. Can you imagine what it would be like to try and find a job that you could sustain yourself in this economy without one? I'd say damn near impossible. Stick to the study habits that have gotten you this far, and make sure you're actually studying, not just having your book open while you read textsfromlastnight.com. Staying motivated and actually getting through school is part of what makes getting a college degree impressive. Just remember to keep looking forward and in the end it will be extremely beneficial to your future.
