If exceptional grades and numerous excellence awards are to indicate anything, I have succeeded academically thus far. However, such achievements are only possible because of my work ethic and determination. I pride myself on submitting my best work, pitting myself against my past performances. I remember my tenth grade English class; I was writing essays every week. I took every critique from my teacher and considered it for the next piece. Experience I gained from that class carried over into eleventh grade, where I achieved the highest English grade I have ever made. Even now, I look back at my older essays to help me write, so I know what works and what to avoid. Perseverance through school and desire to improve have carried me well, even through activities outside of my education.
Sometimes I had three tests in a day plus homework due the same day. When I when to class and after the class ended, I go back to work till midnight. Then I was sitting on my desk for many hours doing my homework. Third, challenged was managing my time at work. Few weeks after classes started I notice how difficult was managing my schedule. I felt so stressed between doing homework and working all day. In order to get my own items, I had to work hard. Many times I worked until three o'clock in the morning. Then I woke up at seven o'clock to be early in the class. I felt tired being a full-time student and working full-time at the same times. I knew it was going be rewarded in my
2) Describe your reactions to what you did. This week I felt a combination between a little nervous and desperate. First the discussion was not easy and we are in the final push before finals, so I just want to make sure that I am well prepare and learning as much as I can to do well. I know that I can do it as long as I try hard.

My level of confidence can also make a difference of when and how I can tackle my academic work. To help build my confidence I practice doing medication, to help calm my nerves and keep me at peace. With all this set-in right, and my contently is in check I have no problems with doing what I am supposed to do.
Journal Entry Session 2 Josette Medina Colorado Christian University Abstract John 20:31 “But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. What is recorded is to give full proof of the Divinity of Christ; that he is the promised Messiah, that he really suffered and rose from the dead and that through Him every believer might have eternal life.”
We were told to write about a memory or experience we had with writing or reading. I found this difficult right off the gate due to my lack of enthusiasm of the class. Once I sat at home and ranted for a while, until the book and experience was chosen for me to start compiling for the day to day tasked that were demanded of me. As I was compiling I was seeing my thoughts of the rants slip into the paper that I was to turn in. After writing the paper I reread the work; astonished as I was I just laughed at the idea and believed this was just going to be unacceptable. Next day to my surprise it was accepted. As I read it aloud my peers and the teacher tore it apart in the class and gave feedback that they felt would help improve it. Shuffling through all the bits of ideas at night shaking and shifting the words around piecing the puzzle to create my paper. Clinching on the questions that arose with Faizon asking about repetitive sentences in the paper, along with Tori’s request for more description. Then having the teacher point out the words I chose to depict the descriptions at times were vague. Keeping those suggestions in mind and more I went through again and again to find the hidden errors with the heightened sight that was giving to me with others views among the forest of characters before me. Hunting out each mistake able
This week was I was relaxed and nervous. I was relaxed because I am done with my individual assignment, and nervous because we have presentation. I think group member before us as set the presentation standards high, and we as a group need to at least try to match the level. Other than reading and working on the presentation I had two case studies, 9 discussions board posting to finish. I am poor public speaker, I get extra nervous to talk in front of the class. Hope I can manage to talk for two minutes, and explained what I read and research on my topic.
Halperin Family Shalom, I will begin by saying that I will write again about the challenges I face in my studies as I do in every letter. Challenges that are becoming more and more difficult. Since the beginning of the last semester the lectures keep on saying that it's going to be an especially difficult semester due to the very difficult exams. I was able to pass the exams to my great joy
A blank page. All writing begins with a white sheet of unnamed possibilities. And yet with skills, knowledge, and ideas, a blank page can morph into something magical. Shakespeare did not simply stumble upon Romeo and Juliet. Instead, he had to use his heart, mind, and pen to produce his
Over the two-day period I was busy. I had gone back home over the weekend to see my family. I left Saturday morning and came back Sunday evening. I had a relaxing day on Saturday but did my work Sunday. I started off with doing my English paper and then I had to help my dad move cars from one spot to his shop. The whole day until six I was working on my English paper. I had written a rough draft but on Sunday I wanted to make it even better so I re-did it. When I came back to my dorm I organized and cleaned my room. I wanted it to look clean so I can work in there and so it can look nice for the week. After that I did some of my other homework and then did the English paper again. Neat two o’clock in the morning I planned everything out for
Whenever I have challenges in school, like a hard test coming up or a big project, I accept it and work as hard as I can to get a good score. I don’t say ‘Why me’ and whine about it forever. For example, one time our math teacher told us that we had our midterm coming up that would count for a big chunk of our grade. As soon as she notified us, I started to study, determined to do good. I reviewed all of the previous material and got an A+ on the test. I faced it head on and came up with better results than if I had just given up and complained about it. Facing my situations with that attitude has made it easy to do well in school and the result proves the meaning of the quote to be
Journal Entry 29 1. No matter how hard we try to prepare ourselves for challenging experiences and try to stay positive, it becomes harder to do than planned when the time comes. It was the end of the last semester and I was on the verge of emotional depression that totally overwhelmed me. During the exam period, I wasted my weekends on the Internet, chatting and Facebook-ing. I needed to submit an important paper on Tuesday morning. On Sunday night, after wasting so much time of mine and having a little red eyes because of so much exposure to electronic screens, I sat down to write my paper. Only then did I realize that the paper was due the next morning, not on Tuesday. I was extremely nervous because it was too little a time to finish it. Moreover, I was so angry with myself that I wanted to cry. It was a realization that I was off course in my study habits and that I had not overcome my habit of willingly putting myself in difficult positions. The more I thought about being in that mess, the angrier I got with myself. I got even angrier thinking about how it was not the first time in my life that I put myself in such a situation. I could not concentrate on my paper because of that emotional response. Then suddenly I thought that I just needed to talk to someone and calm down. I called my classmate and just told her about everything. She said that the instructor had actually extended the deadline until Thursday. It was such a relief. I thanked her profusely and decided
During the ropes course field trip what seemed most difficult was that i had little trust in my classmates. What lifted my trust in them was that Cristobal, Veronica, Jessica, and Mrs. Clark motivated me to keep going and to not give up. There was a point in which I told Mrs. Clark "I can't do this!!!" And Mrs. Clark responded with "Yes, you can Star!" Hearing that come from her was motivation and courage that came to me. During the "Blame Game" what was most difficult was that we had a difficult time communicating with each other. What was also difficult was that we were all yelling at each other and blaming each other. In the blanket challenge we all managed to cooperate with each other and we were all calm. What made it easier was that
