Field Hours Reflection

Improved Essays
In light of everything going on with family, work and school, I managed to make it through to the end of the semester. It’s been stressful, interesting and rewarding all at the same time. First, I would like to say how much I appreciate my mentor taking time out of her demanding schedule to assist me with my field experience hours. There were times we had to reschedule because things were hectic or switch times because of previous commitments but we got through it. Until, you’re actually in the school system, you really come to realize how much dedication, energy, responsibility, commitment, time and effort a teacher puts in every day. Second, my field hours were educational and motivating. Educational, in the way of learning different

    A recap on my life: Spring Semester has been very busy, but it has been such a great Wolf ride-this week in particular. So many things have happened recently in my life that I just want to thank everyone who has taken the journey with me! The big highlights of the week include: · Honored as ODK's Top Ten Freshman (Only ten students of the entire Freshman class at UMD recieve this honor) · Selected as an Images Tour Guide! I will now have the opportunity to show perspective students why Maryland is the right fit for them and why I love it so much · Attended Tea with Title IX- as a member of the Title IX Board Student Adivsory Board, I was invited to attend Tea with Title IX where I was able to discuss different policy improvements regarding Title IX on campus (huge shout out to NAN and Taylor for putting on a great event)…

    Hello, This week has sucked. I broke down crying at work last night because I can not keep taking time off or else they will fire me. I continuously take Saturday nights off because my boyfriend lives three hours away and I want to visit him and he does not want to sit in my dorm room for 8 hours while I work. Finally I called him and told him he was just going to have to deal with it or meet up with some friends that he has in Queens. That was clearly the hardest part of my week.…

    “H-Hi… M-my n-name is…” I would constantly stutter like this when introducing myself on the first day of school every year in high school until 12th grade. This was the result of having terrible self-confidence and being introverted. I became introverted due to my move from Indiana to Alabama. I still have a love and hate relationship with this move. I love it for the fact that it showed to not take friends for granted.…

Throughout this year I faced hardships and had an extremely difficult time keeping everything I valued in place. I didn’t accomplish as much as I wish I did this year, but towards the middle/end, this sudden determination and passion started forming within me and my love for learning deepened.…

    When I had my first meeting about my senior year schedule and my counselor told me I could graduate early, I immediately said yes. I didn’t think about all that would go along with it and at the time I had no idea so in an attempt to convince me not to graduate early, my counselor told me to think about it and really weigh out my options. I thought about it a lot and didn’t see a single reason against it. 2 weeks later, after speaking to my parents I went right back to him and told him I am graduating early. He then asked me what's my plan.…

    I would say that I learned the most about what it really means to have time management after this semester. Entering my first semester of college I had blind faith in the University, and myself because I believe everything would just work out and I would pass because it was meant to be. However, fate and hope are no the things to help you life as a new college student. The drive to wake up, attend class, finish homework, and accept the new responsibility that had been placed in my novice hands diminished greatly as the non-academic temptations became to creep in my head. I must be honest with you and let you know that I did cave and willingly participate in the sweet release of social experiences.…
