As a new immigrant, I took the accuplacer test and went straight to 111 English level. So, English 111 course became my first college English class. It seems like a great achievement for a French speaker. Nonetheless, this performance linked to significant challenges. Even though I am a fighter and an optimist, I was frightened about my academic achievement for this semester. The problems became bigger when I took my first practice test on sentence structure (fragments and run-ons) and got a D. I was frightened and felt that I will have to drop the class. However, I decided not to give up. I started working hard and had a V+ on the next test. This positive grade energized me until now. During this semester, I have much homework and practices which allow me to identify some strengths, weaknesses, and gave me lots of skills for my English 112 class and the future.

Northwest of San Jose lies a region like no other in Costa Rica named Arenal. When I first stepped off the tour bus onto the rustic, wooden-plank bridge, my ears began to ring with the sound of nature: toucans sang like it was a Sunday morning, sloths rustled as they slowly moved up the trees, and water sweetly cascaded carelessly over the rocks below. The air felt like a wet kiss upon me, but that did not matter because of the unforgettable view of the Arenal Volcano that laid before me. The Arenal Region in Costa Rica is one of the most unforgettable places on earth; the twin peaks of Arenal, the deep, blue waters that fall below, and the forest of life that surrounded the region made this an unforgettable place to visit; only God himself could have created it.
