However, I am grateful that I have been able to identify the weak points in my learning efforts so early in my academic career and also been able to implement changes to them. The way in which I study is drastically changing and I have already seen positive improvements because of that.

In the poem, “Chess” by Rosario Castellanos the main idea demonstrated in the poem is there is no true victor in war. Castellanos makes the idea that there is no victor in war known through the use of imagery, figurative language, and tone.

It was always a dream to play hockey in college and maybe someday professionally. Growing older, I kept having these reality checks that someday that might not happen and I had to have a backup plan.
