Three things to celebrate: writing growth, artifact #6, conclusion
Even though it is still quite hard for me to pick out three things to celebrate I think that one of those things is that I am less harsh on myself and the work I did this year. In previous years I was always super harsh on every aspect of myself and I felt like it was never good enough.
I passed all of my classes except for one exploratory class.
I tried really hard in my biology class and I got an A I think.
Two areas for growth:
One thing I really need to work on is just motivating myself more so that I can do my assignments properly. This would mostly apply the humanities since we have a lot of writing assignments in that class. I usually try to strategically ignore certain assignments but then I wind up struggling towards the end of the year. I know that I shouldn't think a C is good enough when I could do better. My grades and the actual work I do, do not match up.
My second area of growth is group work. I have a really hard time doing group work especially when I'm not with my friends because I have difficulty talking to other people. I have improved a lot over this year thanks to my friends who help me become more social in a friendly way. However, when it comes to being social in an academic way I am not as open minded. When I am not paired with people I think I am compatible with instead of trying to work things out I usually assume that it isn't going to go well. I think that if I tried to be more positive about other people, even if I'm not quite comfortable talking to them, it will be easier to communicate when I need to. I'll try not to assume that my group will ignore me right off the bat just because other groups I have been in did the same thing.
One question:
Why do I have so many assumptions about myself and others and how can get rid of all my misconceptions?
