When it comes to staying ahead of school assignments i’ve never been very good at it, and that definitely reflects on grades most of the time.What I usually have the most trouble in would be studying and the reason for that I think is because there's no clear goal to go after. When you have regular homeworks there’s always something to do and work on but with studying there’s nothing to do except read the same page 20 times over till you have some idea of what is going on.The best example I have of this is when studying for the physics test we had recently. I could try studying for as long as I can but sooner or later i’ll just get burnt out and go do something else. And the worst thing about that test was that for whatever reason like half the classes were able to take it home while mine just had to turn it in. So all in all i’ll keep trying to do better even if it means getting nothing out of it, which will probably happen.

Of the three traits I sought to improve, honesty has been the one with the least amount of opportunity's to actually try. When it comes to being more patient or proactive there are numerous ways to improve everyday whether it be doing homework ahead of time or keeping yourself calm when it comes to stressful situations like tests. But when it comes to honesty there's not much else other than basic truths where there wouldn't be any reason to lye. So while I am finding it difficult to improve on my honesty, i'll keep trying.

For this weeks blog, the trait that I felt I (kind of) improved in was being more proactive. While usually I would just leave everything for the last minute or even not do it at all, I found myself forcing me to keep working through it. I feel that if i can keep that at up maybe i won’t have to force myself but do it naturally without the stress. One thing that does kinda a suck is that in Ap World History quiz and I actually studied pretty hard to the point I actually had some level of confidence. I ended getting a 90 and I was really happy till I found out it only brought up my grade 1 percent bringing may total grade up to an awe inspiring 82. But while that was disappointing I did learn that if I keep trying I can do even better on the next one.

This week I do feel like I'm making some type of progress even if its just a little. The main virtue I've been trying to improve so far is just basic patience. I feel myself catching myself whenever I get a little impatient like for example being in the lunch line for longer than the actual time you get to sit down and eat or especially when a group of like four people deciding to walk in the middle of the hallway as slow as possible, oblivious to the forty other people trying to get by. So while I have made some type of progress I still have a lot of work ahead and look forward to improving whatever way I can. And by the way on schoology it says "You are required to have at least one weekly post (150-200 words long)" so... good on you for doing way more than what you have to and being proactive.
