College

My last day of class is on Wednesday and then ill be out for spring break. I feel a little relieved because I don't have anymore assignments, midterms, exams due besides one presentation.  I only have school on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, so whenever I get homework I get it all at the same time. My presentation is due on Wednesday for my last class of the day. Once Im finished I can leave and start my break. Im not really sweating this presentation because the part that I have to do is only 2 minutes long and my group and I have been preparing for over a month.  I think this spring break will be much needed for me because I have been feeling overwhelmed with school work. Assignments kept on piling up so not having any work for a little will put me back to feeling a little more motivation. Hopefully when we come back things will be easier because of the break from all of the work. We only have 6-7 weeks left of our second semester when we come back. Its crazy to think tha...

In this blog I will talk about my first time having midterms. Last semester I did not have any midterms at all and now this year I have two. Yeah it seems like no big deal because it could be all of my classes but its only two. My first midterm was for my world civilizations class last week. It was kind of hard to prepare for because I don't really learn anything in that class and I hardly have any notes from that class. The professor that I have usually puts about 5-6 words per slide on her power point. She doesn't really go into details. I feel like she thinks that we should already know what she's teaching. This sucks because history is my favorite subject but I'm not learning anything, also because I know how I did on my midterm and I'm only being graded on the midterm, exam, and homework thats due every Friday. My second midterm which is this week is for my communication class. We have to watch Freedom Writers today and Wednesday. Then on Friday we have to answ...

What I have noticed recently is that my communication skills are getting way better. Before college, I would be so scared go up and talk in front of people. I  would be so nervous that every time its my turn I would get anxiety or I would talk way too fast. Now as time passes I get less nervous and more comfortable talking in front of class and to new people. The past couple weeks in my communication class has really helped. I chose my communications class because it was a group discussions class so I thought that I wasn't going to have to speak in front of the class as much. Unfortunately thats not the case. I have been in front of the class at least once a week. Today, we were playing a game where we had to get our group members to say the word thats on your card without actually saying that word. The twist on the game is that we couldn't use words like um, uh, yea, you know and like. It was harder than you think. When it was my time to go up I thought I was gonna mess things...
