Was it a success?

At the beginning of the semester I felt so embarrassed to walk into my new class; LA-151: Freshman Seminar for Success. Why did I let myself fall into Academic probation? Well, I know exactly how I did, but why? Now after a semester of being here I can't express how grateful I am for being in this class. I learned so many things, that I bet I wouldn't have learned so quickly. I learned how to better manage my time, how to make a resume, what communities I'm a part of, how to write a thank you letter, how to start a blog, the difference between assertive/passive/aggressive, how to conduct an interview, how to properly critique, create a smart goal, and most importantly that I am an artist. I was fortunate enough to have a great instructor, who had the capability to teach me all these lessons (because not everyone can!) Ms. Carleigh Kude was a great part of my success this semester, and I hope she will continue to be. Throughout this crazy journey, she has been a great teacher, friend and psychologist. All the lessons I have learned I'm sure I'll use my entire life, and life lessons are the hardest ones to learn! I know that the things I learn now will get me far in any aspect of my life and I appreciate this. All though I've learned a lot, I know that there is more to come and my journey will forever continue.

p.s.
To Ms. Carleigh Kude, "Thank you."
