Its the end! God bless you all!
I can not believe that this class and semester has come to and end SO fast. To be honest I was a little overwhelmed in the beginning. I had not idea where to start and I had no idea whether I was going to be able to keep up with this whole online course! But gladly I did, I feel so accomplished. It was the little steps that got me this far, like everything else in life, baby steps all the way to get to the bigger picture. I really enjoyed this class. Best of all though I have to say I enjoyed the blogging most of all. When I first saw that we had to write 500 words minimum on certain topics I would wonder how I was going to be able to elaborate on subjects that I was not really interested or passionate about. However I did it somehow. You can do accomplish so much by just putting time to it. By being patient and giving it time, you can not expect to have everything come at you at once. Now that we are at the end I find that I would even go over the minimum sometimes when it came to blogs and other assignments. This has taught me to not be satisfied with the minimum if there is more that I can add to anything why not? Unless there is limitations on how far you can go and even then sometimes we go above and beyond. I really enjoyed interacting with my classmates. Everyone was so respectful and everyone did their part when they were supposed to which I really appreciated. Most of all I was glad that I was able to freely speak about my passion and the love of my life and that is God. I have never encountered people who would be so tolerant and patient with me when it came to class setting as far as sharing my beliefs. That is one of the things that stays most in my mind that I was really able to open and express my feelings with out being attacked by others. I am sure that I am not the only one who felt this respect from everyone. Everyone was so respectful and is one of the reasons I even looked forward to blogging. I would enjoy reading others thoughts and different matters as well. This was my first time doing something as enjoyable as this in a class. I hope that is not the only time I encounter such assignments in my future classes. I truly believe that the more a teacher makes things enjoyable yet, productive that is when students really learn and take things with them after the class. Thank you Ms. Gross for being so awesome helpful, caring and fun! I thank my classmate as well for everything but most of all the respect and making the class so enjoyable. God Bless you all and may God truly bless your families and lives!

Wow I did not think this class went by fast at all! It felt like forever to me! But I think that might be because I finished two quarters at CSUB in the time it took to finish this one here. I do agree with you about it being pretty overwhelming at first though,I was a little afraid I wasn’t going to be able to juggle everything. I definitely had to start making a detailed schedule of everything that had to be done to make sure that it all got finished in time. Once I got in the swing of it though it wasn’t so bad. I also wrote about how the blogs were actually something that I really enjoyed writing and reading ,even though, like you, when I first say them I was like 500 words?! I got used to writing them pretty quickly though and by the end it was like nothing. I’m glad that you feel accomplished now that this class is over; I think we all should, considering the amount of hard work that we all put into it this semester. We have definitely earned us a nice, relaxing summer vacation. Congratulations on your achievement and good luck with the rest of you education!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Lisa for helping me when I needed it! Your rescued me a few times! =D LITERALLY!
ReplyDeleteI have to say that we’re totally in the same boat and have been since the beginning of the semester. By week three I wanted to cry because there was so much to do and I didn’t even know where to start either. But a couple of weeks ago I went back and looked at the assignments for week three and I was like “this is cake.” Haha I guess I just got used to the workload and now it doesn’t seem so bad anymore. But I do have to say that I am SO GLAD to be done because I need this break. Haha I most likely would have dropped it if I had had enough units to do that in the first place. But I’m so glad that I didn’t because now I’m at the final week and I’m definitely going to pass. Ugh I know how you felt when she introduced all the minimum word requirements. I was so thrown off that I actually had to count what I was writing and I felt guilty if I was even ten words off. But like I said you just have to get used to it.
