Personal Narrative: Doing Homework Like A Good Student

I remember the beginning of sixth grade, just like it was yesterday. Walking through the doors I had my backpack and lunchbox in hand excited to pass all classes with no problem.Unfortanately that thought was just a thought. Over the course of the year I failed tremendously by receiving my very first unsatisfactory grade. Before I have never received anything lower than a “B”, so to see a “C” it was heartbreaking for me. I know most students would love to see a “C” on their report card, satisfied with the feeling of not failing. Every report card I kept getting that same feeling of disappointment of seeing that “C” on my report card.

Going into college, I would like to peruse many of my goals. I would like to start out getting my general studies in and then build up to become a Registered Nurse. After I accomplish becoming a Registered Nurse I would like to work on becoming a Nurse Practitioner. One reason I am striving to complete these goals is to be able to have a good future and hopefully a good job will come out of this. Neither of my parents went to college and I want to be able to accomplish that for myself.

To start, a risk I have taken was to achieve straight A's in high school. The value of straight A's didn't appeal to me until the last semester of my sophomore year. Henceforth, before that time, I enjoyed the phrase "D's equal diplomas". It was unwise of me to think this way, and unfortunate that it took so long for me to move away from this mentality. Accordingly, I began second semester of sophomore year, by making sure I took good notes, actually study for tests, and ensuring I didn't procrastinate. It was a hard semester, and unfortunately, I did not get straight A's. Conversely, my effort did show, and stood out to many of my teachers. I was happy with my progress and knew I could eventually get straight A's. Furthermore, my junior year

For the duration of my high school years I have had my fair share of bad grades, just as any student has. An “F” on a vocabulary test, “D” on a math quiz, or even getting a “C” on my midterm exams is all failures to me. I will be the first to admit that I have never been the top- ranked 4.0 student, but getting a

Junior year at Tucson High Magnet School I was enrolled in College Algebra a class I was having difficulty in. First semester had already passed and I received the letter grade D. I knew I had to work harder and study more especially if I wanted to get a better grade point average in order to get excepted into Universities.

Two weeks flew by and the competition was in two days. I continued my regular training at the climbing gym the past weeks, occasionally skipping a few afternoon practices for my tutoring. Vincent and I learned more about each other every session and he asked for my phone number, his exact words being, “Just to make sure you're studying obviously. Nothing else.” he said with a wink at the end. I probably blushed so much that I looked like a tomato, but I didn't care since he was the one asking. Last week Thursday, a week after asking for my number, he asked me out on a date. I excitedly screamed a “Sure!” which probably sounded inappropriate since humans don't usually scream “Sure!” but he liked the excitement. We decided to go grab pizza at

Today I had off of work, but that does not mean I did not have school work. I found out today that over the christmas break that I forgot how long some assignments may take. I found out that sometimes the assignments that we prepare for the most allowing the longest amount of time period may end up being the shortest assignment and the assignments that you thought would not take too long take the longest. I feel that I need to get organized better before it gets too

It’s also known by everyone that we must try our hardest beginning to end. You can say it is like keeping constant pace through a race because you don’t want to come out too powerful or else you’ll finish weak and feeble. When being a part of a race with hundreds of other athletes, it is only yourself who is capable of preforming adequately because you control your own race. As for school, it is up to the student to put in the effort and get the grades they desire because no one will do it for them. In other words, if one gives up, or is discontent with their results, it is their fault and

The first thing I feel like I should talk about would be staying focused in school and in class . The only successful way to get out of school , is to stay focused on your work , mind your own business and doing your work on time . When you eventually get out of Elementary school , your'e gonna want to start focusing harder on assignments mainly because the teachers will have higher expectations for you and they DO NOT care for your opinions or feelings ( its factual ). Dont get caught up in relationships , drama , and everyone else and what they're doing , just focus on you and what you need to do to get good grades .

The reason I worked hard for this semester was so I can get an A which means a lot to me. Just when I thought I would earn it my classes were gone and I was left with a 87.00. I just wanted enough time to get in A in my class because I failed on doing that ever since I've got into this school. If I don't get my time back for my class can you at least give me a 90.00 on my

As a woman and mother balancing work, school, and personal life is difficult. I previous tried online classes before and they didn’t work for me. I was overwhelmed and not satisfied. I decide to leave school and gain some life experience and raise my family. I always wanted to return back to school I just didn’t know where to begin. I have always been a goal getter and determined to finish what I have begun; I started with research. I wanted to make sure that the next school I attended was a perfect fit, accredited, and that was going to try their best to provide me with the materials I need to go into the working world. When came upon UWW I like what was offered and it looked like their main focused were people who are just like me. I then

I'm currently sitting in Math class and glaring at the math paper in front of my face. Why in the world do we have homework? Whoever invented homework must be the most hated man alive?

I limp through school on Friday and not just because of the obvious. That freaking work out was three days ago and I'm still suffering. All I can say is, thank fuck it's Friday!

Hello, I was just following up on the homework I didn't have in class today because I misplaced the worksheet in the cafeteria and unable to locate it. I was wondering if you could send me a copy to do tonight, so that I can have it completed for tomorrow. Thank you and I hope you have a great

School isn’t always about getting an A, it's about getting a good education and feeling like you learned something when you walked out of the classroom. “I maintain that grades really aren’t that important because I value education for more than its spot on my resume”(Schuhmacher). Some companies don't care about how well you did in school what they care about is if you understand what you were taught. “They (grades) don’t really matter because they don’t define us”(Schuhmacher). You may go through high school and not get good grades and then go on and become the smartest person in the world anybody can get good grades, sometimes the drive just isn’t there for all of us. Find your thing and be the best at.
