1) What are some of the things ( behaviours) that you did or didn't do this week that kept you in your integrity?

On my first week of school, I was speaking to a classmate and discovered she lived in the relative area to me, yet her commute was far longer. After some consideration, I decided to offer her a carpool agreement to the subway in the mornings, and to her house in the evenings. Rather than Lhara take a total of four busses every morning, I have added 15 minutes to my commute but taken an hour off hers.

Additionally, I was scheduled to work a 5pm- close ( 2am) shift, so in order to avoid this i schemed quite a bit. After consulting Ana, my anatomy teacher, we decided that if I "sprained my wrist on Thursday"; it would be a sufficient excuse to get the entire weekend off work.

2) What was your rational or rationalization for participating in these behaviours?

In order to try and get ahead for time I may miss, I had stayed late all week to study and was feeling comfortable with the vast majority of the material. Additionally, I made the conscious decision that I would not be drinking in order to both be a safe ride home for my friends and so I would not have a hangover the following day. My rationale for missing work was that I had requested not to be scheduled that night so that I could complete homework but they scheduled me

    The complexity of urban environments is something that I have become familiar with through my time spent working, volunteering and studying in Dorchester, MA – a financially diverse urban borough of greater Boston. Attending UMass Boston while living at home did not provide me enough opportunity to experience the city living. I always drove to campus since public transportation was not feasible.

Learning to travel light and staying vigilant helps me to reach my destination easily…

After turning on my car, I glanced down at the digital clock unaware of my predicament...5:04. I realized that I was in trouble. I was going to be late and have to surrender half of my expensive lesson time.…
