Grades, et al.
This semester's report card came out...
CHI 1010 Core Elementary Chinese I: A
ENG 4991 Seminar in British Literature: A
IB 3341 Principles of International Business: A
MGT 4310 Entrepreneurship: A-
MKT 3301 Principles of Marketing: A
THE 3305 Moral Theology of the Marketplace: A
I was so close. A semester 4.0 is ever elusive for me. That A- really devasated all hopes of having a semester 4.0 this time around. Although I do thank the people who inspired me so much: my mentees. They come from a place where the language, culture, climate, etc., are totally different and they are able to outperform so many other students academically. I am born here in the United States and I have no excuse but to do well in school. I must continue to work hard.
Next semester's courses are going to be so much more difficult. God help me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following is going to be exceptionally sporadic thoughts that may not make any sense...
So anyway, this trip to Vancouver has brought my attention to so many things. What does one value and what should one value? She said that I was an avoider. She said that the seven organizations, part time job, and other work that I place onto my shoulders, (even though it may be wonderful) is another way for me to avoid seeing the obvious issues that are all around. She's probably right, but how could one possibly do anything about somethings that one has no power over? That question simply cannot be answered and what I am doing now is the only way cause in the short term, there is no other way.
