Reflection #5

In the middle of the semester I am exhausted. My motivation for school is not very good because I have a variety of homework assignments to turn in for all of my classes. Even for essays and exams too that are assigned in the same day. Also, I have been having lack of sleep, which it is not very healthy for me. Getting at least three to four hours of sleep per day is very frustrating as a full time student. For this whole week I am trying to be very invulnerable with all of my curriculums by not giving up, having a positive behavior, and becoming very optimistic. So far, I am striving for success by becoming more serious about school, it’s not because I am failing in my classes but having a busy schedule and too much work. For my schedules, I try to balance out my schedule because I am organized and I have to keep that very consistent to get my work done without procrastinating. When it comes to professors they can be impassive for not caring much about the student’s grade to make them pass the class. I do feel as if I need help from school because of all of the stress that I have. Not feeling precarious or doubtful, I took this advantage such as going to my tutoring sessions from my English and Reading Class. One of the reasons why I do this is because I want to go to English 100.

Long Term Goals=Bachelor’s Degree for Psychology

Mid Term Goals=Transfer to Cal State Fullerton

Short Term Goals=Do well in all of my classes

 

Dear Sabrina,

                I am so glad that I was capable of getting all of my classes. Classes’ right now is very hard to attain because of the waitlist. In all of my classes, I study very hard and focus on my work without socializing with a lot of people. Sometimes there is a lot of difficulty like lack of sleep and it causes me to have stress. At the end of the semester, I passed all of my classes and I was proud of myself. I feel very smug at that moment and very self-satisfied because not many people have this opportunity to take this advantage.

                After finishing all of my sixty units, I have decided to transfer to Cal State Fullerton because I need one more step to go any further. Before transferring, I have to go to the Cadena Transfer Center to help me how everything is supposed to be accurate to go to the school that I want to go to. Also, it is closest place to go to from my house. By taking advantage of this opportunity, I attended in all of my classes and used a lot of different learning methods to make my studies more understandable so I can feel very confident about my studies.

                Do you remember that I said that I will “risk it all and do whatever it takes to achieve my goals” even though it sounds as if I am a bit insane? Well, guess what! It has been a year to reach at a certain point where I want to be. I am very close to obtain my Bachelor Degree in Psychology because it has cool information about behaviors. I was so happy that I couldn’t believe it myself that I can do things by not giving or resigning in my studies. To me, it seemed a bit surreal, because I am the first generation in my family to go to college.

                Your Best Friend,

                                                                Sylvia J

Reflection

One of my experience in school that everyone has in common, would be stress. To reduce stress, everyone should be planning everything. The following plans that I have done for this week, would be my assignments for all of my curriculums. From all of my classes such as English, Reading, Statistics, and Psychology, I have to maintain my time to be organized and it takes a lot of effort to be doing all of my studies so I can balance my time for school and the time for myself. For my homework assignments, I planned it out by using the GOOGLE calendar. This method has kept me very organized for this whole week. I would receive notifications from my phone by letting me know when I have to study and when I can do my homework.  Based on my results, I did succeeded because it became very informal on my tasks because there has been several times that I have completed my work early without worrying about it. What I also have done with the GOOGLE calendar, would be writing down my work to make check off lists. This is another great method to be using because in case if I feel as if I am forgetting something that I have done, I would have my daily agenda with me at all time. I believe that there is no adjustments to make because with the GOOGLE calendar, I feel very confident about staying on my tasks that I have scheduled.
