One word to describe how I’m feeling right now is anxious. It’s been several years since I’ve last been in school. It’s nerve-wrecking, to be honest. There’s ups and downs in having online classes. The upside is that it is very much time-saving to have online classes. I could be at home in zoom and get right to learning after class ends but that’s very discouraging to me especially because I need to be in a school setting to get the feeling of being in school to study. It’s also hard having English(and other courses) online as English isn’t my first language and I’ve always had trouble with pronouncing words and writing a well prepared sentence or essay, but I’m prepared to do my best.

Some of us are scared of heights, some are scared of flying, others are scared dentists, but there’s one thing that I think most of us are scared of, is facing new adversaries we’ve never been prepared for, so the reason why I chose this photo because to me, it means to take a “leap of faith”. Also, because I rather be there now than shoveling snow :).

One word that describes how I feel about this course is interesting because this is the first class where the teacher just gives us the work and we meet and discuss it. I think I may like this format better honestly. My worries and concerns in this class is that I’m going to start falling behind eventually because I might get lazy and begin procrastinating, As I type this I probably have already taken 5 breaks.

i chose this image cause Daniel Kaluuya is a really great actor and he stars in such powerful and strong films like “queen and slim” and i think acting is pretty cool.

I’m feeling positive and a concerned because I don’t find ELA as a hard topic but the work can sometimes be a little stressful. At first I thought school being online would be a good thing, I wouldn’t have to leave my house, I could be in bed etc. Then I noticed  how bad it was for me, with my school work, I procrastinated. I would lose interest in class because I would be looking at the screen for so long and on top of that work would just be piling up. I honestly can’t learn behind a screen I rather be in school because I’m more focus, they’re too much distractions at home, I’m determine to do my best this semester.

This photo has meaning to me because it’s one of my goals I’ve set for myself.
