Airspace class

I withdrew from the University of Connecticut due to medical reasons. When I withdrew, I did not know what was causing my symptoms. The symptoms were, however, severely interfering with my ability to well in classes. I decided to withdraw from UCONN and focus my energies on addressing my health. Though I was extremely disappointed that my declining health forced me to leave UCONN, I knew I would not be able to do as well as I could, academically. Over the course of the following years, my…

It was the first day of 8th grade at Nagel Middle School, I was alone and friendless on team 8-1, most of my friends from last year were on different teams. So during lunch I ended up sitting with Jenna Walsh a girl I knew from book club last year, her twin Alex and another girl I had gym with the previous year, Samantha Beinke. Although it was quite sunny outside, the temperature in the cafeteria felt like it was below freezing point. I turned towards Jenna about to voice my opinion on how the…

Dear Amma, How’s everyone doing? I’m having a lot of fun at school. My hardest class right now is probably my organic chemistry class. You remember the organic chemistry class that I took in high school? It’s a little like that, but definitely harder and more focused on real-world applications. The course actually includes a weekly three-hour lab with its own one-hour lecture. I think it’s a pretty great course because we learn techniques that are used in actual labs. Last week’s experiment…

It has been a little over two months since I began my out of the classroom experience in the Shustova Chemistry lab. With many extractions, separations, Schlenk line setups, and NMR spectroscopies, I am feeling much more confortable preforming higher-level chemistry techniques all while upholding national safety standards. This sense of comfortableness did not come quickly. This is where the most challenging aspect of the Capstone Project comes into play. The challenge that I face when I go into…

Apart from the fact that, Johnson is an excellent, top notch business school with a long history of impact the truth is that there is a silly reason that led me to apply to this school. Let me expand on the silly reason first, why I am applying to Johnson. The Office, one of my all-time favorite TV show and the character Andy Bernard, who went to Cornell. It is hard to explain, but I will give it a try. The character Andy Bernard is portrayed in the show as someone who does not get the social…

I applied to the counseling program and got accepted. I had the attitude that I am going to start and if it is something I find too difficult, I will stop. After all, getting a Master’s degree was something on my bucket list that I had pulled out. I was retired and didn’t need a degree for a career. When I started in the program, spring semester in 2013 I didn’t know exactly what to expect. As a senior citizen, I knew that I would have to compete with students my children age and younger. I…

Have you ever wondered how influenced you can be by taking a class? Recently, I have taken a very helpful class which is English 099. This class has helped me in so many ways that it will be remembered as one of the best. It is a great opportunity to prepare you for future classes, and to keep you focus on what you have to do in those classes in order to pass them with good grades. Being an English 099 student has offered me several benefits throughout my entire semester which are improvement of…

When you get to a class late seven days in a row is it your friends felt that they did not help you open your locker? No, it is your fault for relying on your friends that much. Yes friends can be helpful for moral support and all but is is up to you to know how to open your…

students, My experience in Señor Lynch’s class was really easy. The work he gave the class was really easy hat I would finish before class even ended. All you need to do to pass his class is turn everything in and stay on top of your work. Señor Lynch’s class is the easiest class if you speak spanish but if you don’t you will struggle on some things because you obviously don’t know spanish but as long as you pay attention and do the work you will pass. His class was really easy for me that I…

The athletes begin to lose focus on academics. They try to use the excuse that they do not have time for homework or class because of their sport practices. A lot of athletes feel like they are privileged. They think that teachers should let them turn things in late or miss class because they are athletes. This happens because they do not know how to manage their time wisely. Managing time is so important. There has to be a balance between your…
