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.

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.

the class i stay in tuned the most is finite math & 2nd would be academic English. Since in finite math we take notes everyday, this makes it easier to stay focus in class. While in Academic English, there's always lectures and often I would get sleepy if it gets long and boring, except when there's in-class exercises to be done.

It's noticeable when a teacher stress on important concepts because he/she would either say so or use a different tone in his/her voice.
