12/7 -Monday's Blog

On Saturday, i felt the remedial English final went a bit bad, since after finished writing the 1st body paragraph i quickly glanced it over and it didn't seem like a strong argument, and so i tried to make it up in the 2nd paragraph but probably still wasn't strong. the pressure of the time pressed down on me.

while on Monday, 2 days after the final there was an optional in class essay that i went to, and the essay i did during then felt like the best essay i wrote all semester, also better than the final.

11/2 -Monday's Blog

Today we went to the Conversation with University Leadership from about 12:00pm to 1:00pm. Important people such as the Dean and the provost of the college were there to talk about what they do everyday in their position. Also, they answer some questions written by other students, like remediation, budget cuts, etc. The only one that interest me was when they talked about remediation because I'm in Academic English class and I need to know the outcome of it, since I'm worried if I may not pass my finals for the class and would have to go to community college to make up the class for next semester.

10/26-Monday's Blog

Today i wasn't paying attention much in class and i keep falling asleep a bit in most of my class, since I'm still a bit sick and tired, all thanks to my brother who coughed in my face.

I could improve: time managing, selecting a study place with low distractions, reviewing course material, increasing my interest on an assignment, and over learning.
