Work together part 1


Work together
I can and will work as part to the team as long as everyone in the team is willing to do his work. I don’t like having to pick up the slack, but I will if know that my grade will be named otherwise. My greatest academic success was in my first semester when I had to write a 10-20 page research paper. It was the longest paper I had ever been assigned and I was a little scared. Also, it was the first paper where they were like; here you go, just write about something. I had to argue in favor of or against something, but it could   be anything from the sky is blue to hypnotism. I wrote mine on hypnotism. I worked on this paper for weeks and weeks. Every night I would be doing research or writing. I put so much effort into this paper. It ended up being just fewer than 12 pages but it was full on information. I turned it in and when I got back a week or so later, I had received the first A+ of my college career. All my hard work paid off because I got the grade I deserved. I was really happy and proud of myself.

Tiger Woods is a jerk!

I think Tiger Woods is a real jerk, because that's family and he doesn't want to help out his family and that's really cold.

My overall study method: I break up studying over several days and over the course of the evening and day. Cramming never works for me so I try not to do it. I will have longer sessions on nights before big tests, but I never stay up much later than normal before tests. I know that if I take the test tired the next day I will not do as well as if was rested. How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: I usually look over the test or paper to see what I did that the teacher did not want. Basically, I do not stress out about grades that much because for me there not worth getting all upset about. I do well because I know that I know the material. However, if I do get a bad grade, or one lower than I expected, I make sure that the next time a test comes around I study even more so that I won’t be surprised by the question.

Student Sucess Statement

"I shall pass through this life but once. Any good therefore that I can do, or any kindness I can show, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall never pass this way again"


It means that you only live life once don't spoil it by just doing wrong things all the time, because you'll look back at your life and be disappointed.

My time management secret: My secret is to use time wisely. I know that on certain days I do not have time to run errands or hang out with fiends even. Each minute of each day is used for something One thing that works really well for me is to write everything down. I mean everything. I write down if I am going to email people, write letters, or study. It works for me to have a planner that goes by the days and shows me what I am going to be doing every day. Knowing what I have to do every day helps me plan my weeks and my days. If I know I don’t have time on Tuesday, I will try to get more things done on Monday or Sunday. I plan ahead, especially if I am going to be on the road for volleyball. When I am on the road, I bring my books and read on the bus /plane/hotel room. Missing class is killer to make up from, but if you are up front with your professors, they are usually nice about having to turn thing in late or not being in class.

My test study method: When it comes time to study for the test, I usually start 2-3 days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on what was important for those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said would be on the test if there was a review session

Repetition is the law of learning: therefor, to learn and remember, to recall, it is mandatory that you repeat over and over the ting you desire to learn and remember. You may be thinking, “Oh.no repeating something.” you need to get used to it. For example, the more you practice a song. Learning and remembering is like playing the piano-the more you practice saying or doing it the better you can remember it because you have repeated it numerous times since first being exposed to it. So, practice rehearsing those thing you desire to remember, and they will stick with you. Practice ---Proficiency---Pleasure.
