I feel encouraged to be taking this course this semester. I believe that it will bring my writing to another level and elevate it.
While I was doing virtual learning, I was not picking up much of the content and it was a tough time. It was very easy to slack off because you’re at home and can lay down, use your phone, etc. Being in a physical classroom raises my motivation and can help me better understand things. My main concern when learning online was completing assignments on time and giving it my all. I am now taking 2 classes that are hybrid and 2 in person to better balance it out for me. I am looking forward to learning this year and completing work in school.
A photo that means a lot to me is this photo of Kingda Ka, the tallest rollercoaster in the world in New Jersey. I first rode it in 2021 and I was terrified of such a ride because of the height and speed. After a few minutes of contemplating with friends, I got on it and rode it 4 times in the same day; plenty more to this day and it taught me to never be scared of opportunities and to take them while they’re there. You never know what it can bring to you. It was also a very cool experience. Never be scared to do something you haven’t done and always have an open mind!
