This is a picture from last year during wrestling season at the ILH jv championship. This picture is related to physics because physics has so far been my hardest class this year and i think wrestling is the hardest sport i have ever done. But although it is hard i don't mind the challenge of physics. It is very interesting to me and i don't mind putting in the extra effort to do well. In physics so far, i haven't done that well on quizes and tests which i have to work on. i see those as just obstacles that i have to over come. last year in wrestling i weighed in at the 119 weight class but had to bump up two weight classes to wrestle at the 130 weight class the day of the championships. i ended up trying my best and winning. that's what i plan to do for physics this year, to try my best and do the very best job that i can. like wrestling physics is very hard but also fun for me. i enjoy participating in class discussions and working on labs in class. i find if fun because in all my other classes we just lecture and take notes. in physics you actually get to learn the material and see it happen in real life experiences(the labs). also the journals have helped me broaden my view and see physics in my everyday life activities which is way cool.
My anxieties and reservations are probably my laziness and bad time management. I think i need to put more effort into my work and not leave things to the last minute. Although in physics i normally do my homework right after school in a study group so my friends and i can help each other if we don't know whats going on. It helps me get a better understanding sometimes. After school now days I'm really tired and sometimes too lazy to finish homework and i just put it off to the next day (which is bad). Other than my laziness and not having enough time, i think physics is a manageable class and if i just put my mind to it i can do well.
My goal for physics this year, is to understand and learn the concepts that are taught in the class. I also want to get my grade up if that is a possibility that would be great. Another one of my goals would be to put more effort into physics, that would ensure better working habits and hopefully help my quiz and test averages to gradually increase.
If i work hard in physics like i worked hard last year in wrestling I'm sure anything is possible. I'm looking forward to a super fun, challenge overcoming, concept learning, awesome year of physics!!
