One day, I was walking home from the bus stop. It was the last day of school, but the first day of summer break. My mind was bursting of happiness since the first day of summer was starting and school was over until September. But I wasn’t fully happy because one of my good friends was moving. I WAS going to run home to play on my Playstation 4, NBA 2K17, but I decided to say goodbye to him. My last days of school are usually terrible but this year, something was different. I think that I was a little smarter than I was all the other years. Either I got hurt or I just had bad luck. Let me tell you the worst thing that has ever happen to me, which I’m currently laughing back at it as me being the dumbest kid that day. Let me start from

Throughout my academic career I have always struggled with writing whether it is for the English class or any other liberal arts class. In my English classes, I have a tendency to deviate from the given task. This semester I took a FIQWS Composition class which helped me explore the unexplored areas of my academic writing. There were three main essays (literacy narrative, exploratory essay and critical researched analysis) and each improved my writing tremendously. On the first day of class, I was surprised to see the amount of work is expected from me because there were only three major essays and three reflections. I thought the workload would not be so intense because there are only few major assignments. However, as the Semester has progressed, the work required from me was far more complex and demanding than the assignment listing of the syllabus. On the contrary, with each assignment, I viewed writing from a different perspective, incorporating feedback of my professor and applying the contents I learned from the class.

This summer, I worked at a television production company in the development department. I applied to the internship very last minute and was hired just a couple of days after applying. Before going into my first day of work, I memorized the company’s website, trying to gather as much information as I could from it. I was excited to learn that the development department was female lead and, according to the website, composed of mostly women. In fact, the majority of the leadership positions at the company were occupied by women. Both my family and I were happy and pleasantly surprised that I would be getting the opportunity to work in such a rare entertainment environment where it seemed that appeared be equally men and women.

Russell Wilson once said, “I truly believe in positive synergy, that your positive mindset gives you a more hopeful outlook, and belief that you can do something great means you will do something great.” , but one may often wonder what synergy is. When I think about synergy, the first thing that comes to mind is teamwork. Teamwork is basically people working to together to find a solution or answer to a problem. But, synergize isn’t just about team work it also deals with being able to cooperate well with others. I believe that synergy focuses a lot on diversity. No one is exactly the same everyone has a different culture, religion, political view, race, attitude, and even more. When working someone you have to put aside all of your differences

What was freshman year to me? My freshman year was not the the way I wanted it to go , I was put in a class I didn't know about because the school had messed up my class schedule and had not fixed it until the 2nd semester. By the time the year had ended I had to do with the whole summer school thing, I had to take the algebra one semester one and two over summer because i had failed the 2nd semester due to me not knowing anything in that class. Freshman year wasn’t really the way I wanted it to go I loved most of my teachers and loved the classes but after the school had messed up my schedule it wasn't really fun being there. I was in a class that I didn't know and was with people that I never seen before. The thing that kept me going was my video productions class, because it was more fun than most of the classes and I got to work on things that not every school has.

The main difference between a group and a team is the member’s attitudes and level of dedication. A team is characterized by clear individuality and a high level of dedication on the part of members. A group does not necessarily mean “team”. A group must go through a growth process before performing as a “team”; most teams are often incapable to progress through the development process.

Leaders are not guaranteed to develop to such a high performance teams, nor are members who want to be in the teams. The developments of good teams need the combination of efforts of leaders’ visionary and motivational team members. To be an effective team, leaders have to set up an environment in which team members can indicate at the time of and resolve relationships with other members.

A team is a group of people who must interact with each other in order

Team effectiveness is the capacity a team needs to perform the goals directed by the organization. A team is a gathering of people who are interdependent in their tasks, share responsibility regarding results, and view themselves as a unit embedded in an institutional or organizational system which operates within the established boundaries of that system. Teams have set up a synonymous relationship within the limitations procedures and research relating to their effectiveness while as yet maintaining their independence as two different units, as teams and their members are independent of each other's role, aptitude, knowledge or purpose versus teams and their members, who are interdependent

The first day of school is nerve-wracking for most people, for me, the first day was especially terrifying. The first day of a college class is probably more crazy than all others. My mom and younger sister, Michaela, were busy taking pictures as I attempted to run out of the door. After being homeschooled for the last six years, I knew it would be a much different experience. I had been in my room alone doing school; I was content with where I was. The morning of the first day of class, I was so busy that I didn’t have time to be nervous. However, as I ran out the door, my heart rate elevated to a pace of 138 bpm. I felt older, nervous, excited, and anxious as I left for Pellissippi. Although it had been six years since I had been in a classroom, I realized that all of my worry was for nothing once I walked into Ms. Brown’s class.
