2nd Quater Experience

Blogging this quarter was a little wack. Considering I didn't really start blogging until after half way through the quarter. From what blogs I did write i believed it to be a pretty good experience. It wasn't as bad as i thought it was. Once i started getting into it with some of my blogs knowing I was in control of writing whatever came to my head about my topic. Although I didn't agree with doing all this blogger stuff because it was all new to me and I guess I was just ignorant and didn't realize how important it was to write all these dumb paragraphs. I am pretty ashamed of my effort in school this quarter. The way I feel about it is probably the way my brother felt back in the day when he flunked out of college after his first semester. From his experience it is even worst for me knowing that I am going through the same stuff that I should have learned from him not to do in my life. I feel that screwing up and having all these emotions of failure and regret is helping me to understand what I really need to do in my life and helping me to grow up and now i am learning from my mistakes. What I have learned this quarter is that it is amazing how many things a person says they are going to do and then not doing any of those things. That was me! Going home every night pumped to do some homeowork then sit down on the couch just staring at my computer unitl I would fall asleep. What is the worst is going to college the same time as my sister who is, let me tell you; a lot to look up to! When she hears how I am doing in school, the bitching is seriously worst coming from her than my parents. I wish I could have the school work ethic that she has receiving straight A's and being on the Dean's list every semester. It seriously sucks being the under dog. I wish I had tried as hard on these blogs as Tim had but its in the past and there's nothing that i can do about it now, but if there is something i can do totally let me know. Considering I didn't do very much work I know that I am most likely going to have to take this class again but either way i enjoyed being in class with you Derek and I promise to try a lot harder next time. Take it easy and keep it real bub.

My freshman year in college was an eye-opening experience. I know, I know, yet another "here's my story." Still, I learned the hard way that ability does not automatically translate into performance. In the future, learn to how budget your time so that you keep up with the work. I'm confident that you could do very well, if you gave the effort. Good luck.
