January has been a fun and interesting time. It was the start of my first spring semester at The Ohio State University. My winter break was a fun time to hang with friends I haven’t seen in awhile and hang with my family. Now my winter break has ended and my second semester of college has started. This semester I am taking a lot of fun classes including chemistry and Intro to Drawing. Something Interesting I have learned was in my chemistry class. I learned the difference between a molecular formula, an empirical formula and a structural formula. It’s cool to look at the different ways to write molecules and learn about the different ones. I also learned the importance of each formula when applied in chemistry. Something I learned about myself is that I tend to lose focus and motivation during the winter months. During january and february, the weather is colder and the sky is gray. This can make me sad and unmotivated to do things as a result. Something I struggled with was keeping track of everything I have going on in my classes. I tend to be less motivated in January and get less work done which can affect my grade. I also wait until the last minute to do my work and my work tends to be lower quality. Something I achieved is I moved onto campus. When I move onto campus I have higher levels of motivation and get more work done as a result. Being surrounded by others who are working gives me more energy to work on my classes. I am not working as efficiently and of the quality that I want to at the moment and I hope it gets better. January has been an interesting start to my spring semester and I am excited to see how the rest of my semester plays out.
