HW 1.1

The way I’m feeling on my first day here with my classes and this course is overwhelmed, I was overwhelmed getting here and making sure I was on time to class and that I was gonna find my classes. Which I did but I made myself stress out which caused me to overwhelm and still thinking to have to get things done for school makes me more stressed. Adding to it I have been very hungry. The outcome though wasn’t bad I found all my classes and arrived early not late I’ll adapt to the routine shortly so not worry about that.

With taking this course though I’m not worried about it much since I have always liked English but I just have to mentally prepare myself for 3 hours in a class that ends at 5:20 which I was never used t0 or prepare for .

The photo I added was the country my family is from which is Salvador and the nationally flower and I enjoy it because it’s a small picture but means a lot and pushes me to do good for my culture.

 

H.W.1 Intro

I would say my feelings about this course is being curious because this kind of English class is new to me. I do look forward to exploring the course. I’m a visual learner, so probably a concern is now much I’m going to experience that as a college student.

I picked this picture because I teach taekwondo and it really means a lot to me seeing the difference I can make in the younger generation and seeing the happiness they all feel when they learn new techniques.

HW 1.1- Intro

Due to my significant tardiness today, I am currently feeling nervous about this class. I’ve been really confident with my other classes because I’ve been managing my schedule properly, but today I completely misjudged my class time. Even though it is only the first class, it’s difficult to feel as though I am already behind on the actual work.

My study skills are very lack-luster high school was so easy for me, the only form of studying I did was watch videos reviewing the unit. Currently, I’ve been attempting to memorize notes by color coding. I’m constantly experimenting with new techniques, and I’m not sure if any of them are actually effective, but I want to keep trying new things until I find one that works.

My major concern for my first semester is falling behind in work, to make sure this doesn’t happen I’ve found a study group and am trying to create supportive relationships between me and my fellow peers. But if I’m being honest I am truly shaking in my boots.

This image means a lot of to me, as generational trauma truly affects everyone. I was able to escape the harsh household I grew up in, and due to this my mom learned a lot about becoming a better parent. I do everything so one day, my siblings can grow up and I can help them get all the opportunities they deserve.  I chose this specific image because I didn’t have the opportunity to simply have fun as a child, so the little adventures my little brother and I have truly means the world to me.
