1. Cheyanne Connor
I am working on my basics at Grayson.
I am strong, hardworking and loyal.
2. Favorite Assignments
I really enjoyed the money owl, it was around the time I applied for a credit card. It really helped
me see what to look for. How to manage it and what to look for in a credit card company.
I also really enjoyed the discussion about the late paper. It really made me think about how, I
either play the victim or how to take responsibility for my actions. I really feel like I had a different
take on it then other people because I decided to blame two people.
I also really liked the discussion about the way people learn. It really told me so much about the
way I learn. How much I really didn’t know about the way I learn. How there were so many things
I can do to improve the way I learn and study.
3. Favorite Journals
I really enjoyed the chapter 2 journal entry. It was the one that talked about the inner defender
and the inner critic. It really gave me a good look at the way I treat myself.
Another entry I liked is the chapter 4 entry 13. IT is when we talked about what we did for a
couple day. We then grouped them into how important they are. It really made me see how so
pointless some of things I had been doing were.
I really enjoyed chapter 9 entry 33. It was one where we took the personality quiz again and got
to see how the results changed. I really got to see how I have changed through the semester.
4. Favorite week
My favorite week definitely had to be the first one. This class got me excited for college because I
looked ahead at the assignments and realized this class is about helping us be successful in
college not just be a random filler class. Everything that we have done has been so helpful to me
and being successful in my studies.
5. Lessons
First lesson- is definitely the information I learned from the money owl. I can’t forget the lessons
because I use them daily with my own credit card now.
Second lesson- the way to handle stress. I just stressed out so easily and this really helped me
plan ways to help calm myself down.
Third lesson- the many ways to study. My study habits are not very good but this really helped
me figure the best ways to help me succeed.

I raised my scores in multiple areas, this semester I have really gotten to know myself better. Which is why I feel like
certain scores went up and others didn't. Some of the ones that went up were adopting lifelong learning and
developing emotional intelligence, which isn’t always the easiest to do in a short period of time. Those are things that
need like years for some people. Which I was really proud of myself to do in a short period of time.
