Hw 2

Dear future me,

I hope that this semester things aren’t that hard on you and that you have decent grades. I know you probably procrastinated throughout the semester and I want to say even when times are tough don’t procrastinate everything taking this course can help you vent your feelings that you’re not able to say or come forward to. I do hope you’re able to make it through at least this year as a way to compensate for all the hardships you have been through in the past.

Yours truly, Beginning of semester self

 

HW for 9/15

The Covid 19 pandemic was a event that changed my view on education. I was a sophomore in high school when covid happened. The idea of learning in bed sounded amazing to me, being comfortable while doing school work is a dream. A very contagious disease had shook the world and made that idea happen. At first online learning was very easy and manageable as it was fresh to us all and I can imagine it was hard for teachers to make lessons easier for online. I slowly started to get tired of the same schedule everyday. Waking up and logging on to your computer first thing in the morning was annoying. My sleep schedule was starting to get horrible and I just started to miss class cause of it. Fortunately teachers were being understanding in this tough time.

Fast forward and junior year is in full effect and this is known as the most important year in high school. Covid is still raging and infecting everyone. I make myself a promise that I will be doing the best I can even with all the tough challenges going on. As the school year goes on I lose all my motivation for school and even question if it’s even for me. The beginning of June arrives and I think “finally, school is almost over and I don’t have to deal with this anymore”. One day I receive a letter from my school, I open and read that I am behind on credits and looks like if I don’t do summer school I will not graduate. I did not think I had gotten to the point to where I have no risked my chances of graduating on time. Over the next 3 weeks I had deep thought and noticed how important and privileged I am to be able to receive this education. Covid had changed my perspective on how important my education was to not only me but my family.

Future self

Hey future Yordy, I hope you are still social and happy.

This is my homeland, this place brings me peace, makes me happy, cant never complain because my whole family come together to just chill and vibe with each other over there. My homeland motivates me to work hard for the goals I want to accomplish in life.

HW #2

Dear end-of-the-semester me,

I just want to say congrats you made it. I know this was probably one long semester that probably felt like forever but at the end of the day you made it and I am proud of you for that. I know things have probably have gotten a lot harder ever since the first day and your probably very very tired after all this but remember all this will be worth it especially in the long run. By the time this semester ends and by the time your reading this you have just recently turned 18. Life hopefully has gotten better from this point and no matter what situation your in hopefully this helps you and remind you to keep going no matter how hard things get.

And if you need more motivation hopefully this gives you the motivation to keep going because i know you want to comeback here one day and working hard will.
