Personal Narrative: My Lab Experiences

Other than the experiences I have had throughout the past labs in school I haven't had a chance to get an opportunity at a research level. The lab experiences have given me some experiences that I think are relevant to a research environment. The laboratory experiences that I had included enhancing mastery of science subject matter, developing scientific reasoning

    My graduate experience will be light years different then my undergraduate training. I chuckle just contemplating the technological difference alone.

We thought we were “hot stuff” because we progressed from the slide ruler to a state of the art Texas Interment graphing calculator. By the way google informed me that my particular calculator at that time was the first of its kind.…

    Semester of Learning Experiences People most always say, “ Learn from you mistakes and achievements.” I would definitely conclude that is exactly what I’ve done this first semester of college. There are many times that I wanted to simply curl into a ball because of all the newness and unfamiliarity. At times I found myself doing just that, but realizing that I needed to toughen up burst from my comfort zone. I can say sleeping through your classes never the best choice, not going just because you find it too easy, missing a class just to write a paper for another class, and differentiating between minimal and highly important status of choices.…

Many times I sat on my bed crying because it seems like everything piled on me at one time.…
