Throughout this semester I have gained several valuable skills that I will be able to use throughout the rest of my life. College thus far has certainly been an adjustment period, with me doing essentially everything on my own after leaving my family. However, as time as progressed, I have fallen into a new routine and am able to get everything done effectively and efficiently. A big part of this transition has been getting used to living the people around me, which has taught me detrimental communication skills because I have been forced into discussing with new people quite often. For the remainder of the year, I hope to continue to improve upon my time management and communication skills the most.
