Things I’ve learned this semester:
•If you have a business, never hire family members to work for you.
•Don’t give yourself a break after high school; just go straight to college so that you can get it over with.
•Writing is not as hard as we’ve been brainwashed to think it is. Punctuation is.
•Sitting on your butt watching TV is not a hobby.
•Reading doesn’t always educate you.
•Keeping close family ties is important, regardless of how annoying family is.
•People who seem to have it together, don’t.
•Gardening is hard, but rewarding. It is also a workout (ouch!)
•Trying to become a vegetarian is HARD.
•I have only three semesters to go.
•Good communication skills are important.
•I’m addicted to eating out.
•People just need to breathe.
•Marketing is awesome, and I’m glad I’m majoring in it. Statistics is hard but good to learn.
•Spending time with my grandma isn’t the worst thing in the world, but it is the most boring thing.
•Having a father around (alive) is important.
Thanks Ms. Smith for the blog requirement; I’ve really enjoyed reading and writing blogs. It made this online class more personal. Blogging has helped me vent, contemplate, and just share. I’ll probably keep it for future venting purposes.
Nooo, I wish I would have spent more time with my grandma. It seems we take advantage of things too often because we don't realize they won't always be there. My grandma died a few months ago. She had alzheimer's so her last months were really sad anyway.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, I'm addicted to eating out too! It's sooo much easier!! Why can't eating out be healthy?? haha
Nivine,
ReplyDeleteI recognized myself in some of those lessons! And, I, too, wish my grandmother was still here. I miss here.
Be well! Keep in touch. You've taught me so much this semester. I love this--writing is not hard, but punctuation is! You are so right!
