This environment is very demanding. Every day, someone from a different department or an outside agency requires something within a certain time frame which can be hectic at times when you have other work to attend to.
I continue to gain strengths such as proper time management, being reliable, responsible, dependable, and fulfilling all my obligations and self control. Things get busy at times so being able

    A weakness that I have is that I do not know how to say no to individuals that ask me for help since I love to help people.

    During the era of Jim Crow laws, the African American group was severely oppressed and the movie road to brown was a great example of the hardships and roadblocks that were faced in this time where segregation and oppression were prevalent. My first impression of when the film had started was that it was going to tell the same stories and history were learned from our textbooks throughout school, but I was wrong it taught me the untold side of the civils rights movement and that Charles H. Houston was the most influential person to make way for political figures like Martin Luther King junior.

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

After attending this class I realized that there is a lot more that goes into writing an essay, or a research paper, than just creativity alone. I have learned that it is very important to be aware of my strengths and weaknesses in my writing. Taking this class has helped me understand the strengths and weaknesses in my writing skills, and it has given me the opportunity to strengthen the areas in which I was weak. An example of this is that I have become aware of my grammar and spelling errors as the semester progressed.…
