Writing Assignment #1 English 111 The Balanced and the Unblanced3

This will be my first semester in college thus being my very first web-based course, it's not that difficult so for but I'm still nervous because I think about the fact that we still have several more weeks to go so anything can happen between now and then. I live in Alaska and have been for about a year and a few months. I am taking two other classes and also have a full-time job. My job takes up most of my time and when I'm not working I'm either doing school work or trying to get some sleep. However, on the bright side having this online course helps me out because I do have timw at my place-of-business to pull out a pen and paper to brainstorm or jot down a couple of lines or notes, however that's not enough time to sit in class.
Being a dependent of the military has its ups and downs. Some of those ups are you do get to travel often, you get to see so much. On the reverse side of thingsif your not the type who enjoys traveling or seeing new things then it can be hard. The process of moving from location to location and trying to settle in while getting use to your new surroundings can be a bit overwhelming.I blelieve the most difficult thing for me in english is actually coming up with something interesting to work around, but once I get passed that it just flows like a down hill river.
I'm the middle child in my family which means I have responsibilities. They expect me to set examples in life to follow such as going to college. My job gives me two consecutive days off in which thats when the majority of my school work will be completed. To keep from getting over overwhelmed and consumed by work I split my week up, so on Monday and Tuesday I work on things from one class, Wednesday and Thursday it's work from another class, Friday and Saturday it's my web-based class time and finally Sunday is the day I use to play catch up.
