Blog B
This week
we received midterm grade for the first half of the semester. I was so excited
to receive my grades because, I knew I was not failing anything. I expected my
lowest grade to a B- which I expected to be media class. When I seen my grades I
was let down and very disappointed with myself. So then I thought to myself
what did I do wrong to receive grades like this. None of my grades were failing
but, I felt very disappointed in myself.
My highest
grade was an A- which I received in history class with my next highest being a
B+ in economics class. My lower grades were a C+ which I received in INQ and
Media class. My lowest grade which I received was a C in math class which actually
surprised me a lot. As I viewed these grades for a while it finally hit me
where I went wrong. As midterm grades became closer and closer I started to
slack of in some classes. For example in INQ I became lazy in my blogs and
decided not to do all of them. I thought it wouldn’t affect my grade it I don’t
do like one or two. One problem with that is I forgot blogs are basically 60%
of grade.
This ended
up being a much needed rude awakening to get me back on track with my work. I thought
that my family and I pay money for me to attend college and I’m wasting time
and money because, I would rather go to a party then do a blog or study for an
upcoming test. If I have to pay for college I might as well learn something
while I am here. I don’t want to just be another student just barely passing my
classes and know nearly nothing in my field of study. Now I know that there are
no real brakes in college because, it is very easy to slack off and you may not
realize how it is affecting your grade until it is too late.
