3/4 Added Sugar or 3/4 Added Salt?

To reflect on this year I would first like to wonder if I became a better person or a worse person. (Hence the title). What did this year add or take away from my personality. (As a student not socially because that would be a whole different train wreck). As a student I feel like I have learned the importance of time management and balancing what I have to do with things I want to do. My parents (my father) thinks I have done too much this year, but I think it was a good way of learning how to balance extracurricular things with my academics. I was never one to have good grades but I kept decent ones and multitasked through the entire year. This year was definitely the busiest so I had to find efficient ways to study. Most of this came from my Hbio teacher Dr. Fenske. She taught me how to study effectively and how to clear up ideas and concepts quickly.


I learn best by doing, Apparently that is a kinsthetic learner. For example in bio I finally understood meiosis when we did a lab with magnetic beads. I think during this last quarter I can really focus on academics because the sports that took up time like powerlifting are now over. I loved powerlifting so much and I cannot wait for next season. Not only academically but I have found ways to physically be productive and better my body as well as my grades. I found out that powerlifting helped me to be productive because it was a stress reliever. It was also very rewarding and I had my best grades in my hard classes while lifting. I think this year was a combination of good and bad attributes.
