YOU GET F.

All throughout the semester I have learned more about my strengths and weaknesses and how I can make all my weaknesses into strengths or at least try to, for that matter. This semester my biggest accomplishment has been my writing, not to brag but I was always a good a writer, going over the page limit, being super specific and going into so much detail (there can never be enough!). But throughout the semester my English teacher has helped me prove to myself that I do not suck at writing persuasive essays, I just need to get a certain format/outline before I start to write. She had given me awesome comments on my very long essays on how I improved from the first assignment she had given us! I'm going to miss her positive feedback and her helpful ways, but hopefully I'll refer back to my old essays when I get stuck on writing. I do think I need to improving on my summary and response paper, it's just so hard to start off and get your ideas together without saying they are yours! Enough about my awesome writing skills, one of my failures besides math, which you all know of is the complicated subject nanotechnology. It's so hard to grasp, I understand somethings but if I zone out for like two seconds, I get lost and confused as to what he is explaining and how was it relevant to the last thing he mentioned. Although the applications of nanotechnology are cool and useful, it's just comprehending the subject as a whole that makes me confused, Hopefully I wont fully fail that class, I don't really want to, I'd love to nicely pass the class with some understanding to the materials that are on a nanoscale reign and how they function :)

Disturbing the peace.

With this project, I got just a little bit out of my shell more, I realized that some people are really nice and don't mind you asking them things. My main question was: Would you rather commute or live on campus and what are the pros and cons of your answer. . So yep. This video actually turned out better than I expected, i tried to do something weird at the end so the video wouldn't be so serious. Everyday I did something for this video, rather it was thinking about it, making rough drafts of the video or just how I'd would get it done. For me to be a procrastinator, I knew I couldn't procrastinate on this, I can't just pull a 5 min video out of thin air, it takes, time, precision, and courage. Luckily my friends were able to help me out since sometimes I live under a rock when it comes to technology, I never really made a actual whole video. ~I tried not to be biased, Hopefully that worked and hopefully this video doesn't come off as sexist because I only recorded girls....Oh well :) What I learned is that Commuting rules! and Resident's drool, most times.

Freshmeat!

Here I am again in the category of freshman or what I use to call freshman when I became an upperclassman, "Freshmeat" just to frighten them though.Being a freshman again is going to suck, all the confusion, feeling like you always have a big sign over your head that screams 'freshman', Did I mention confusion? Hopefully I'll get out of the freshman phase rather quickly. Being a college student means that you have also moved up the education ladder and hopefully the maturity ladder. College is a life time experience for you to get to know your true self. Sure, in high school you have had glimpses of your inner self but with college there is much more diversity, different environment and different vibe. I believe that college to me is a new experience, I think college and college activities will push me out of my comfort zone to go and meet someone new each and every time! Going to college accomplishes a whole lot in my eyes, It gives me a sense of satisfaction, some confidence and just a all around good feeling. Attending college gives me confidence because it shows that I'm not afraid to leave home and shows that I'm not codependent on my mother.College gives me the sense of satisfaction because it shows that I'm in the next stage of a young adult life, and that high school has sorta prepared me for this very moment. College is just one thing I didn't imagine when younger. I was so hooked up on how big high school would be, I never saw past it and onto an even bigger problem, COLLEGE.Well let's all cross our fingers (toes) and whatever else you flexible people out there can cross and hope for the best for me! 

Here's a picture I took from my ipod when I was lost this morning trying to find the Adanti Center, I was near some... unidentifiable place, until i met a new friend.
