Journal 9
Well the fall is the start-kinda- of my college career. I plan on riding myself of old habits. I plan on getting involved because I failed to in high school. I plan getting a 3.0 G.P.A or above. I plan to take advantage of everything I learned in Upward Bound- Bridge and Classic. I plan on being in front of my classes and to let professors know what my name is. I definitely plan to use the free tutoring, and not only because it's free but because it will benefit me as a student. Also, this will be a step in trying to maintain my G.P.A goal. I plan to kick the habits; I want to not wait to the last minutes on papers or assignments, but still in bridge I still see my self procrastinating a . In the fall I can't let this happen..... I am a little scared of college in the sense that everything is different. We are, again, the youngest, but this time we don't know how the system works; we are on or own, with the exception of the wonderful UB staff. I also get nervous because I don't know how professors are, and sometimes your whole grade is based of 2 papers and that means you technically only get one shot.

My total experience in King Kennedy was pretty good. I learned that service is a beneficial aspect of love. When people do service they get to feel good about themselves as well as having an impact over someones life for the better. I learned, through King Kennedy, the importance of looking up to someone. The kids look up to you and get excited to see you and these makes you feel like a better person inside. I also learned a great deal of patience; when working with children it can be frusterating because they want to do their own thing and not always listen. I feel like I gave my time for one, but more importantly, my advice and knowledge. I done this through some of the spelling games collin and I planned. In the future I can see myself doing some type of service. I would have to wait until I get in a state where I am comfortable though first.
