The ways in which I have grown from the beginning of the semester to now is I take my time with my assignments and I do not finish them all last minute which I used to do in the beginning of the semester. I feel as if I recognize all my hard work, especially when I look back and see all that I have accomplished. My expectations for this year were just to get it over with. This semester’s experiences did meet my expectations. I made great friends and that is what I was looking forward to when I first arrived to ODU. Something I wish I knew 14 weeks ago is that I actually made it to the end even though it was definitely stressful and a lot of hard work. The study habits/techniques I will use going into my next semester is writing all useful information down and not every single word on the slide. Also, flashcards will be a great option as well.
