BLOG FOUR: Summer Scholars Wrap-up

I learned that I have a natural affinity for psychology or that maybe I’m just good at racking in the points in Dr. Sia’s class. I worked my tail off to get a good grade in that class, and it really paid off.  My relatives are all proud of me because I did so well on my own for such a long time. Now I that I have identified what I need to work on with my writing in Prof. Bost’s class, I feel as if I can stop relying on my flowery writing to get me a good grade and instead focus on clearly getting my point across with specific evidence backing it up. I honestly felt like I met some really great long-term friends here. I definitely got to see some of their worst since all of the scholars were pretty tired after two weeks of only about six hours of sleep, and people don’t act like their normal, happy selves when they are super tired. I think Summer Scholar’s has impacted my life in a positive light, and I hope to remember this experience in the years to come.
