After taking a look at my accomplishments and set-backs this week, I'm starting to notice that I need to plan ahead a lot more. My planner has been a huge help in that aspect, but not nearly as much as I thought it would. As I said in my intro, procrastination is my setback, and it is a habit I must break. Next week I need to take use of my planner more. I need to check it daily and add my time constraints; i.e. appointments. I feel also that I need to give myself a significant amount of time to complete things and take into consideration my free time.
In terms of my classes, I'm noticing that I'm doing great so far in terms of content of work and quality of work. In my biology class, I think that I'm ahead in terms of knowledge by a large amount but I shouldn't let that make me try any less. My lab work is looking great, i do more than just answer the question. I fill in the page with supplementary info to look back on in future study. This is the same for all of my on-campus classes. In my English class as well as my online class I should really read ahead, however, as I seem to be cramming them to get tasks done. I was lucky enough that in my Engl220 class my instructor didn't give any quizzes, despite what he had emailed us, and that I had the chance to catch up. I feel that my bio class is significantly impacting getting my tasks done for this class. This is because my biology class runs from 5:30-10pm and a lot of times I have to rush home to finish a module that is due at midnight. This just goes to show me that I now need to focus on this class more before heading to my on-campus lectures, even if that means doing things a few days in advance.
