This semester was different than last year and surprised me at times. Sometimes it was easier than last year and had less homework, but sometimes we had days that were packed full and made us stay up all the night. I did well on easy things, creative things, and overall just things that didn’t take much time to do. I have always struggled with tests and quizzes, whether I studied or not. This characteristic does not seem to be changing anytime soon. Hopefully I can make some changes.
I want to try and procrastinate less when getting my work done. I don’t want to have to rush to finish something last minute and not do as well because of that. I want to work on getting better at test taking and stop second guess my. One of my favorite projects we did this year is probably the poem portfolio. It was only recent, but it was the best, in my opinion. I liked how it was easy to get my work done fast and be able to do extra to get more points. This class has had its ups and downs for me, liking and not liking it. The times I liked it was when we just had quiet time to read or work on homework. When it wasn’t my favorite class, it’s when we have a really hard test or quiz that everyone does bad on. That implies to my advice; make some of the things we do not so difficult that when we study hard, we can be confident. Maybe making our working schedule and due date not so close to other projects that take a lot of time to finish.
