Another Quarter Completed

This 2nd quarter has been such a blast! Through our thematic project about tourist spots, we had an amazing time visiting scenic places and discovering new experiences. It was truly a quarter filled with unforgettable memories, fun, and laughter. Even during times when I felt stressed or unmotivated, I was reminded that I have my classmates by my side, always ready to support me.

One thing that I have discovered is that being able to pass assignments on time without cramming feels refreshing. I have always been cramming tasks given by teachers due to procrastination. But one time, I convinced myself to finish a project that I was about to procrastinate on, and it turned out better than if I had rushed it before passing. I was then able to do whatever in class, as I did not have to worry about rushing it.


Even if I know how better it is not to procrastinate doing assignments, I still do it anyway. If I were about to do a task before the deadline, I would end up losing motivation to do it and cram it right before the deadline. This has been troubling for me as I end up not having time to review for tests that I have because of my procrastination. I could perform better in school if it weren't for this problem.

To help me with this problem, one strategy that I try to use is to reward myself. If I do a task before the deadline of a project, I give myself something in return. The reward can be something simple, like buying food or buying something that I am interested in. This method really helps me in maintaining my motivation to do something before the deadline.
Moving on to the third quarter, I will practice stopping myself from procrastinating and maintaining discipline. It is the perfect time to do so, as after the exam, there will be a 1-week break. I will remember not to overwork myself and to take breaks. I hope to reduce my procrastination, even if just a little, for the third quarter.

The Last Chapter of Junior High School

________________________ Entry #1 ________________________ The Last Chapter of Junior High School                  Hello everyone, let me introduce myself. I am Warren James P. Giron, and I am part of 10-Marconi at Ilocos Sur National High School. I was born on May 20, 2010, and I am currently 15 years old. My mother's name is Ruby Pader Giron, and my little sister's name is Olivia Isabelle Giron. Some of my interests are math and playing games.               One of my greatest fears is people judging me. Every action I take, I always think about how people will judge me for doing it. This makes me nervous around people, as I try to avoid doing things that can embarrass me and judge me for it. Because of this, I often avoid interacting with people or feel awkward around them.         I have to overcome this part of me because I am a student of the Special Science Class. As a...

What I Have Done So Far

Image
    ________________________ Entry #4 ________________________ What I Have Done So Far           A lot has happened in this first quarter of being a grade 10 student. I have learned a lot of valuable information from my teachers. I've learned that I need to be serious in my studies as I move on to more advanced and harder lessons in my subjects. I have also learned that getting enough sleep is important because lack of sleep makes you less focused and tired, speaking from experience.          I have encountered some bumpy roads traversing this first quarter. One problem I noticed is that I am cramming and procrastinating projects and assignments, specifically my thematic project and blog posts. As a result, I spent my night cramming for my projects, which disrupted my sleep schedule and caused me to doze off in class. This problem greatly affects me, making the quality of my assignments and projects mediocre at best, and I...
