Reflecto

During this past semester I have learned how to survive when I get to college. In this class, we had blogs due every Friday for every week forcing me to spend my time wisely. These blogs have also kept my information very organized and I feel as though I am a ten times better student than last year.

This last semester has also taught me a lot about research. I now know that in order to completely know your topic, you must know and research every angle of it. All the way from films to photographs, you must know every angle of your topic. Also, writing and reading about my topic was ten times easier because I could actually understand what the writers were saying. I have also found out that I hate non-fiction readings unless if I am completely interested in the topic. That was probably the most challenging part of the blogs, reading Communist Manifesto was very boring and the language they used was hard to understand at times. I am fairly happy I chose the Berlin Wall to study because I knew nothing about the Cold War and the Berlin Wall before this. I also feel like I am very knowledgeable with the idea of communism now and that will stick with me forever.

I am happy that I can now say I know about the Cold War and the events that happened around the world during that time like the Vietnam War and the Cuban Missile Crisis. This project has taught me so much about how I need to use my time and how you must do your work if you expect to achieve.
