This year has been a long year. I joined a student organization called the Korean Student Association as treasurer, got into my major BME, and already done with half of my university life. In academics it has been rough and good. My autumn semester has been a little bit rough and it was hard to get good grades. My spring semester has been a motivating time for me in my studies. I feel like I studied a lot harder this semester compared to the semesters before and I am satisfied with my performance! I hope semesters to come would be as good as it was this semester.

Throughout this semester, I especially developed my time management. During high school, I mostly waited until the last minute to do all of my homework, and didn’t even think about doing any schoolwork until after I eat dinner. Even though I may be in a classroom less time than during high school, I realized I needed to put in more effort to school work than I used to. I started to use my time more efficiently. Instead of waiting until after dinner, I used the time in between classes to study and do homework. After coming to college, I feel like I am actually learning things instead of just mostly memorizing like I did during high school. Some of my significant improvements are: previewing class material, using time efficiently, and having a goal of finishing homework 1 or 2 days before the due date.
