My Reflection Of My Academic Journey In College

My journey as a reader started even before I entered school, as my parents gave me books to read in the days before the inception of pre-school. My love for sports helped to develop my reading skills, as I would, with great anticipation, wait for the paperboy to deliver the daily news, so I would be able to devour all the information within the sports pages. Spurred by my passion for sports, I would go to the library and try to muster as many sports magazines as allotted, and garner as much information as I could about my heroes in the athletic world. As I become older, this led to my curiosity about the history of the sports legends that I followed and I wanted to garner more information, and began to read any biography about sports that I could attain.

Since the start of the semster I have learned many different things about myself and how I can become a better student all around. Summer classes can fly by fast and doesn’t feel like a real semester. That it is just to get credit and move on to the next semester. That was not the case for me this summer semester because I needed to think about the rest of my college career. This summer semester is my first one coming back from academic suspension and I took last semester at South Plains College and Tarrant County College. I did really well making a 3.00 GPA overall and am most likely going to make a 3.5 this semester. This will be a huge boost to my overall GPA. The point is am at the point where I am ready to graduate and will try my hardest to get the best grades I can. I really just changed my mindset towards college and the way I prepare for tests and studying.

First off, the college life has changed me for the better. I am much more responsible in many different ways. I had to change my study habits, or should I say I have to get study habits. I high school I never studied, because everything came so easy to me and I could just

My personal journey of creativity has led me to find a career that I hope to love, and it has given me an outlet not many have that allows me to express myself in a unique way. Hard work and creativity have led me through life and hopefully will continue to as I grow

1. What experience do you like talking about the most? What has been the most interesting, intriguing, and exciting part of your life- why, and what did you learn from it?

Do you wonder if you’ve improved from the transition from high school to college? I know I sure have. When I was in junior high, I was the shy quiet type of person. During high school I started talking to people more and more thanks to a special friend, but in high school I had nobody to give me encouragement. I did not care; I was not planning to go to college, and I made lots of other excuses. But now that I'm in college I feel I have accomplished so much thanks to the nice, kind, and generous people I have met. My transition from high school to college has turned my life around.

I have only been in college for a few weeks, but it has already changed me as a person. I have gone through a few hard tests, leaving a classroom in a full blown panic attack and I have even had a complete breakdown in the middle of the hall but I know in the end it’s all worth it. I have learned that growing up is just a harsh reality that sometimes we don’t want to face, but we all have to do it and college is a

We human beings are all works of art. Every experience that we have is a new stroke of paint to our canvas. The things that influence us do the same. I am not a completed work of art, but I can show my progress of what makes me. I am influenced by the media, my teachers, and the neighborhoods I lived in. Now here is the showing of my work.

I don’t feel like I am ready to pack my bags and leave for college today, I still have more to learn. The rigorous workload from multiple classes helped me learn proper time management. I am able to write essays in correct MLA format with confidence. I am more trusting in my own perceptions of things and do not feel I need to rely on outside sources. I have confidence in myself and don’t always need to validate my opinions in other people or sources. I feel that I have a firmer grasp of the curriculum as a whole and am a more hard working student than I was last year. A lot of this year consisted of independent work so I had to learn to rely on my self and not my teachers, which I’m aware, will pay off in college. No one is holding your hand and helping you through college, you get back what you put into it. My having to work independently and occasionally with peers has me well prepared for the

I create in hopes of the ultimate creation. I am Geneisha Davis: blogger, designer, model, stylist, writer.

My goals going into college is to be the best that I can be, put forth 100 percent effort in everything that I do, work my way up to being on the Dean’s list, and become a starter basketball player for my school’s team. The goals I’ve listed was chosen because I know for a fact that I can accomplish anything that I put my mind to and also I plan on being the smartest basketball player in college that’s going to graduate with high honors. In reality I really don’t have a schedule to jungle both academic and social activities. Mainly because everything dealing with my education comes first and whenever I have free time outside of that, that’s where my extracurricular and the other things I like to do comes in and fills in the gaps. When it comes

In the last year I can also tell I am more mature than I used to be. I am able to talk about things that I couldn’t before without laughing about it and I seem to understand the views of other people. This has enabled me to hold in my anger at some points and see where someone else is coming from.

I am the type of person that can turn nothing into something and then make it into something that nobody else has done. Creativity has many pros and cons that I know every artist experience very often, in fact, I have experienced theses challenges throughout my many years of being a free-lance artist. One of the many negatives about being creative is that, people will take things out of context along with taking things that you have created without giving you any credit, which is not fair to anyone. I am a firm believer in that, the world is your canvas because I am the type of person that can walk around my city, which is Philadelphia, and I can write down my ideas while I'm on the subway or train and then make my work come to life while I am at home or in

When I was a kid, school for me was waking up early in the morning. I also have to study a lot in school, then after school I have to do homework. I remember my first day at school. My mom and dad, both were so happy and prepared but I was so nervous and cheerless. I didn’t like to wake up early in the morning for school , but as time flew by I started loving school which made me wake up with energy instead of tiredness. I began to enjoy the school as I made new friends and I got to know how it is like when you meet people out of your neighborhood. With my friends I had lunch together and study together. I started to understand what the purpose of the education system. Based on what I understood I think the purpose of education is really aimed at helping students get to the point where they can learn to be on their own. In this journey of education I had a lot of positive and few negative experiences,but the negative experiences also helped me growing. Positive experiences are my teachers helping me improve, and I improved more when I moved to the United States.

What has my journey to graduation been like for me? My journey has been a crazy, fun-filled learning adventure. I met many goals and accomplishments I set for myself but I also faced some challenges on the way. For example, I finally met my goal of graduating with a 4.6 GPA and maintaining it. Also, I accomplished completing my last four years of grade school and now I am on the way to college. My last year has been interesting and there are many goals, accomplishments and challenges I can reflect on.
