Course Reflections

So far, I have been pleasantly surprised at how much I actually enjoy this course. Normally, I don't like science. But this year I am actually finding Physics to be a very fun class. Of course, I am worried that the material will get harder later in the year. But I have no doubts that class will still be fun.

My goals for this class, especially after having such a hard time in Chemistry last year, are to enjoy the experience, understand the concepts, and earn at least a final A- grade. Although, right now, I'm feeling that as long as I'm enjoying myself, I shouldn't be stressing too much over my grade.

I feel that, so far, I have been fairly consistent in my effort and performance on labs, quizzes, and homeworks. I think I should work at being more consistent on tests but, overall, I am ok with what I have done so far.

As for my "state of mind" about this course, I have, as you can see, chosen a balloon as my image. This is because I feel that while I am hovering around the same place grade-wise, sometimes I am confused at the beginning and my head is "full" of air rather than information. However, by the middle of the section I usually have begun to understand. At the same time, I chose a balloon to represent how much fun I am having in this class.

Overall, I am having a great time in this class and I hope the rest of the year will be just as enjoyable.
