This semester has been an amazing area of growth in my life. I think I am beginning to recognize that the end is near and I graduate in a little or a semester. Because of this I am having to grow in so many areas of my life. So many of the areas that I thought were weaknesses I am beginning to develop. Some of those are asking lots of questions, taking a long term view, and being ready for things to change. These are areas that I struggled with the most and let's face it, so many other college students do too. As I am coming to the end I have been working much harder on these areas because I know that they will help me find success and help me grow as a person when I am out on my own. This class has helped me to gain on these areas because it allows me to be creative in my writing, but also ask questions about what would make my work better. I am understanding that what I write might not be in its best form and that I have to be willing to change the work from the comments of others.
I am ready for the second half of this semester to continue to challenge myself. I know that it will be getting tougher as other classes begin to get into finals and stressful situations. So keeping ahead of this class and preparing the work earlier in the week will help me in so many different ways.
I think that growing is a part of being a senior more so than any other year. I never thought I'd be ready to be an adult, but I feel prepared. It sounds like you are getting to that point, too. We never stop growing, so establishing a growth mindset to take past graduation will definitely help you continue to grow. Your self-awareness is inspiring and I think you will be successful in your post-grad years. Best of luck with the rest of your semester!
