I have been doing an okay job on my short term goals. I only have two B's on my grades. I hope to improve on those. I have not been running at all, but I can't do those anyway with schoolwork and family. I have read a total of 4 books in the span of 3 months. I want to continue to work hard to get those 2 A's I'm missing. I learned that I'm the one kind of person who can really work hard, but gets lousy or distracted at some points. I don't really want this to continue, but it's kind of hard not to. I should probably add that to my new short-term goals. I also learned that I usually don't give my best at tasks, like I'm very minimal. I want to improve on that and sure that I can do it, just have to get the laziness of out me. Overall, I'm okay but I can improve.
Personal Life Goals-Reflection 2
(2/8/17)
I just have to say, making up goals is really easy. Fulfilling those goals is hard. We're halfway through the school year already, and I actually forgot about my goals. I ended up getting only 1 B in a class, which was social studies with an 87.5%, so I almost completed that goal. Again, I haven't been running, only in P.E., and I think I'm just going to maybe quit on that one. I do not like the sound of it but I just can't. I also haven't been reading much lately but that's because I don't have any books to read. The only book I did read was Harry Potter and the Cursed Child by J.K. Rowling, but it's not even an actual book. It's just the script to the play, and I don't even know if that counts. Now, I'm reading The Little Prince by Antoine De Saint-Exupery. I'm reading that one with my class though so I guess I haven't been reading any books lately. I got less lazy in doing work and actually spend time doing assignments and working hard in school. About 2 weeks ago we did MAP Testing and my score actually lowered which I'm not proud of. It went from 232 to 230. I do have to be honest and say I didn't really try on this recent one and just click a random answer for about 25% of questions. But on the next I will do my best and totally beat my score. I excelled in the category "Literature" since the score went higher on that one. I needed to work on the "Informational Text" since my score lowered on that category. But on the next MAP Test, I will do my very best.
