HW 1.1

Confident. Although I find it particularly hard for me to study, I hope to break out of certain bad habits that negatively impact my academics. Distractions grab my attention very easily and usually find myself  swamped with loads of work. Listening to music often helps me focus when I need to get something done. Learning how to stop procrastinating is my top priority. I don’t portion my time correctly and don’t follow any particular schedule. My worries in college mostly consist of being overwhelmed with work, followed by where completing all this work is going to take me in terms of a career. The image below is my cat Lazy. She is 14 years old and is one of my best friends. Whenever I have a have a bad day or a tough situation in front of me, she is always there to help me out.

HW 1.1

I’m not going to lie, college is really scary. It scares me because it’s hard for me to study. I feel like I can get into the groove of studying but my surrounding is mostly my problem. I would start to study and study and then I’ll get a text message then I’ll start to wonder on different apps and then I lose that motivation to keep studying. I need to learn how to keep that motivation rolling and remember I’m in college for a purpose. My worries are the Final exams for my other classes. My worries give me motivation to keep working hard and study hard.

I chose this picture because this was a time I was in a happy place and nothing around me mattered. This picture is me when I went to the JMA Wireless Dome, Syracuse Orange Field, to play in a State Championship football game. This picture means something to me because it was the last time stepping on a field playing something I love.

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.
