who is cool?


First, cool is an expression of a compliment. As a matter of fact, cool can be used to describe someone who has a good attitude. Self-control for example, is a good attitude that makes people to be cool. A self-controlled person knows how to react before any situation let it be the one of emergency or trouble. For instance, before a situation of arguments, where violence and fight can be involved, a self-controlled person don't  let himself carry away by the anger, but he will think about the negative consequences of a fight and just walk away of the situation. Another way that cool can be used as a compliment is also to describe someone that has a lot of creativity. It can be someone funny, who always have a way of making jokes out of any situation to make people laugh or feel happy,  or  someone very intelligent that being around is always beneficial because there is always something new to learn from that person. For example, a friend, who always come up with interesting ideas or plans every time needed is definitely a cool friend.

how I'm keeping my resolutions

At the beginning of the semester,I made the resolutions to make more room for my studies in my schedule, work on my academic weaknesses, and take care of my body. I've kept most of them so far. As planned, I dropped some days in my work schedule, and I'm now having enough time to concentrate on my studies. When it comes to my academic weaknesses, I'm really  doing my best , but I have not yet obtained the result that i expected espacially with my English class, but it shall be well as I'm planning to double my efforts. However, I really neglected my resolution of getting more exercises and I'm actually feeling guilty about it. In fact , I  subscribed for a gym membership  but went there only twice. The truth is I don't have enough time for extra activities it's either school or work, and whenever I have some free time, I always prefer using it to rest or relax.

Receiving my essay back ,and revising it, are the parts that i like in the writting process. Because, receiving  it back is the moment ,when I have the opportunity to know my mistakes, and correct them.Then when im revising it , i have more confidence in my work , due to the fact that I already know what's wrong with it the first time.

About deadline

   I'm in between being a deadline meter . Although I have never missed one, I struggle most of the time to meet it. This is not due to the fact that I'm lazy , but is due to my busy schedule. Beside school, I work and have a family. But this should not be an excuse ,because being on time is a quality , which is very important for our studies ,and will be determinant for our carriers.Thats why this semester I decided to take some action in order to improve my relationship with deadlines. First ,I dropped some days in my work schedule so that I will be able to concentrate more time on my studies. Then I set up an academic calendar in which I put all important deadlines ,and I fixed myself the goal to get any work done 2 days before the actual deadline.
