Lessons Learned

School is coming to a close, but what have I learned this semester?

Math: how to solve my problems. Sometimes the solutions don't work, so I try a new equation, still doesn't work, give up? Not yet...

Science: Chemistry is not enough to keep relationships alive. Biology of people, we are so different and we have to accept those differences. Physics-what goes up, must come down? What are you going to do to make sure it has a soft landing???

History: Don't rehash the past. It's over, done, learn from it and move on. Yes, you make mistakes, but all you can try to do is fix them.

Language: People communicate differently. So don't assume things. Try and understand. Don't judge others because of the things they say. Listen to people. Learn their language.

Art: Life is like painting a lot of pictures. You paint one. You spend 6 months working on it and when it's finished you realize all the things you could have done differently. Maybe more pink and less gray...maybe circles instead of squares. So, you didn't create a masterpiece. But it's pretty good. Hang it up on the wall, and start a new one. Let that painting remind you of what you did wrong and what you can do better. Take a new canvas and try again.

English: Write a better blog...


Tests: Just because you got a 'C' doesn't make you a failure. It means you're not yet proficient in these subjects. The tests are just reminders that you need to keep working.
