MY LEARNING FALL AND RISE

      When  I first saw my English teacher. I thought to myself, "I wonder if this person is a teacher that will be able to teach us something important that we will actual use, after we get out of high school." He started talking about the traditional way of learning English or the opensource way. He said," The opensource is where you will create a blog and post about things you learned." He asked the class to choice between these two options.  Before he left outside he told us that he really trusts us. He said to take our time and decide as a class. Then he said, "When you guys decide come and get." Then he walked out of class. I was shocked that he left us in class all by our self.

      I was like, no one will have the guts to go call him back and tell him what we chose. My friend and I were saying that we both like to try the opensource. To be able to try a completely different way of learning. I was excited because we will be creating our own blog. Posting our thought on things that we will read in the future. I was hoping the class was going to chose the opensource learning.Then a student stood up and walked towards the door and called him in. He asked, " What did you guys decide on?" The class decided on opensource learning. I was quite happy.

       As days went on, we started writing journals and posting on our blogs'. Then came the day where we had to remember a poem and post on YouTube and get on our blog. I had a hard time because was used to recording myself and got really nervous. I some how post the video and manage to remember all the words or the poem. One of the harder things, that I had to deal with was writing essays.Man, that really killed me. I had to rewrite my essay many times. In till, I thought it was better then the other ones.The essay was called 'Let me walk through the Pedestrian.' I had help from other people, I felt great when I was finished. I know that I really tried. My teacher told us that essay actual means to try. I really felt like that. One thing, I did learn is that I should really post on the day it has to be published because you well be stress out. You would have, to much work to do. I tried harder to post and stay on top of the things I needed to do. He also, told us to record what we do during the day, daily. I realized how much time I wasted. When I could be posting but I know myself that I wouldn't do it.I tried to mange my time and and get my act together. I did manage to do more then before, I was able to do better journals. One of my best journal entree by date is 9-27-19. One of favorite poems are Richard Cory. It was such a nice beginning but then it got dark really quickly. It talked about a man beginning so perfect that the people around got so inspire and decide to act like him. No one was expecting that he had problems to the point that led him to kill himself.

I learned so much. He gave us advice that I knew will be helpful and prepared us to be ready for life. I had so many nice moments in class. The one thing did put a smile on my face was the when I finished the class interview. I knew that I did good and was prepare. When I was the went back to my seat and went to look at the post, I made and got feedback. I got so much positive feedback and I was really happy, they thought I did good. I got the chance to know more, I now knew how to setup template for a resume, cover letter, and reference. I did learn more things then I thought and actual useful unlike other class where they teach you how to write an essay and how to do slides. They are helpful but not something that will get you a job. I experience many difficulties through the whole out the semester. To any students that have a teacher that really trusts you and helps prepare for things that will be more helpful. I hope you guys try hard.

TODAY I JUST DID MY INTERVIEW

How did I do?

MY BRAIN ON THANKSGIVING BREAK

Over the small break, I went running with my two older siblings for some days. The rest of the time, I was home with my parent. When thanksgiving came, my older sisters came over  and helped my mom with the turkey and other side dishes. I enjoyed the food and was very happy because my older brother came to visit us. During that time, I knew, that I had to read for the literature analysis but I decided to not worry about it. Instead, I was more focused for my interview. I asked my siblings to help me prepare for it. I practiced for 4 days but I still haven't answered with a good response. After, doing all that, I picked my top five journals entries. I tried looking for good posts that are my top five but only found two. I also looked over the vocabulary, I was so sad to see all the words. I know that it's good for us but I just got sad looking at the words. I know that I didn't do all the things, I was suppose to do but I wanted to relax for awhile. I did enjoy my break.
