You're probably thinking--- what!?!? That is so inappropriate! But let me explain. According to most mothers, women aren't afraid of having a second or third baby after the first because they eventually forget how painful childbirth was and only remember how exhilirating having a new baby could be. Comparing this to taking hard classes, students take hard classes one year that they struggle through and stay up until 3am for one year.... experience the wonderful, memory erasing event that is Summer Break and go back to school ready to "knock 'em dead" taking even harder classes.
So, this is the way I feel about school. Except really, my general chemistry lecture is kind of a joke (it's like honors sophomore chem) and my political science class is really chill. English Lit is sort of intimidating since we finish a play a week or a novel a week and have quizzes every day plus an end of term research paper. Calculus is a scary beast! We are doing linear algebra this semester, and it's so different (proofs and such) from all the math I've ever done, so getting through this one will be a struggle!
Anyway, I'll just keep in mind those glorious high school memories of conquring physics (hahaha) and acing the chemistry final and keep on trucking.

Emily, you're so awesome. I know what you're saying, though. I keep thinking that even though the hard classes killed me before, somehow they won't now, so I signed up for a bunch, and I thought I would be a lot more motivated to study and enjoy studying for some reason, but that didn't happen either. It's working out, though. At least I'm interested in everything I'm studying. You'll be great, Emily!
