I learned a lot of things about my first semester in college. I had taken a year off of school so it took me a few weeks to get back into the swing of things. One valuable lesson I learned is the lesson of staying organized. I started to keep notes of my homework and read all directions throughly before I started any homework or schoolwork assignments. This helped me to make sure I never missed any assignment and helped me to do the best I could on each assignment. I learned to balance work, school, and life. These skills will help me later on in life once I enter the real world.
A REFLECTION ON THE FUTURE
My academic future is currently unclear to me. While I did have a great experience in my first year at Las Positas I am currently undecided on what my next step should be. If I do decide to continue college I know that the skills I learned from this semester will definitely help me carry me throughout the rest of college. However, if I don't continue and enter straight into the work force I know that I will be successful there as well.
