You set up short term goals by know what will be on prepare for, ask question about what will be on the test, go to the class before the test, study, and find out what kind of test it is.

Campus Movie Fest

On Friday, I went to the Campus Moviefest held at Tower Hall. I was amazed by all the decorations they had. I wasn’t expecting much until I saw the red carpet and lights waiting in front of the doors. While waiting at the doors they had movie music playing and a background to take pictures. Also they had the big searchlights for people to come and see what was going on. Before it started, there were people taking pictures and video from all of the people in line. It was a long wait for going inside and I was amazed that they gave actual tickets to everyone. Finally when the doors where open, the auditorium doors had free flashlights for everyone. I was only expecting to stay 30 minutes for the event but was so intrigued by the movies. They were all present in 4 and there were 16 of them in total. During the each 4 movies, they would have a raffle for prizes for the audience to win. I sadly did not win won of the prizes but it was still entertaining. After the raffle prizes they were throwing out t-shirts to the crowd for free. Finally when all 16 movies were finished, they present awards to all the people that one in their category. Overall, I enjoyed the experience of the Campus Moviefest because I wasn’t expecting it to have that much fun.

GROUPS!!!! & Ch 7

Today we went into our groups to talk about ideas for our video. We came up with the ideas to do a commercial. Currently we are thinking of ideas on how we should do the commercial. We still need to brainstorm some more to finalize what we will do.

Know Yourself
I do not have a sleeping disorder after taking the test from the book. Also from taking the test I do not have a learning disability.

Your Journal
The course I would benefit from with a study group would be math. I would benefit from it because I can ask the group for help with problems.

The discipline I have trouble with is math. I don't understand it at times which makes it difficult for me. I could get help from a tutor or a teacher when I don't understand the section.

The group could set the meeting up earlier than we do so the phone call will occur after the meeting. Also we could have the meeting prohibit phones so it wont occur.
