As I began the second advisory, I started off very strong and ahead of the game. I was doing all my work and completing what I needed to receive a good grade. This was a result of me trying to keep up with my goals for the upcoming advisory too. I had left on with a B- last advisory and now that has dropped significantly. I am completely disappointed with my grade because these are not the grades I receive on a regular basis in school. My current grade in your class is a D+ due to missing and…

My GPA is not a valid indicator of the amount of work that I have put in through each semester. In my first year of taking business classes, I had been pledging for a business fraternity for 10 weeks and the workload was equivalent to an internship which hindered my time in focusing directly on school. My second year of college, I had taken up the responsibility of paying for my own living expenses, including rent and meals. To pay for that, I began working as an intern at an accounting firm. As…

Three Sisters, by Anton Chekhov, directed by Rick Lombardo is the 2nd required performance for this semester and could not have been better. The Kennesaw State University production of Three Sisters was phenomenal and the undergraduate students who performed portrayed the Russian characters very well. I am usually not too impressed when it comes to plays performed by students but this production has me wanting to go to every Kennesaw State production. The women who played the three sisters; Olga…

1. Determined: 7/10 The reason why I gave myself a seven is because although I like developing methods in order to achieve success and although I would do anything for what I believe in I sometimes struggle to stay determined. If I do not achieve or at least visualise success for the future I tend to give up after a few times. 2. Disciplined: 9/10 The reason why I gave myself a nine out of ten for discipline is because I do not like to be late and would do anything possible not to be late. I…

photos on the website is Image 32, which is a photograph of a class held in the gymnasium. What’s interesting about this picture, is that every person in the photo is a male. There is not a single female in vision. After reading the document associated with this image, I figured out that even though the picture was of all males, there was indeed a female class. Document 10, stated that the “women's Class in the Gymnasium meets every Thursday evening under the direction of Miss Rose Gyles. The…
