Test Anxiety

The second MUSE workshop I went to is the Test Anxiety workshop. Here we talked about what is test anxiety, its causes, symptoms and how to prevent it. I learned a lot of new things about test anxiety. One thing that causes test anxiety is the lack of preparation. That is why it is never recommended to cram in the last minute. Also they advised that we should review our notes regularly so it will be fresh on our minds. Test anxiety can be dangerous that is why we should avoid it by getting a good night sleep the day before and by preparing.

Asian American Welcome

The first MUSE Workshop I went to is the Asian American Welcoming Meeting, something like that. We were introduced to the different Asian organizations around campus and other beneficial orgs as well. One that caught my eye was Akyaban. Since then Ive been involved with Akbyan and we do fun stuff all the time. I remember there was a Korean student who played Korean drums. It was entertaining. They also had Asian food and they were good. The meeting was fun and informative.

Oh nooooo

I was in Clark Hall doing a power point presentation then suddenly the power shortage went off. Then I was sooo mad and I started saying bad words. I waited for couple minutes and the power went back on. I checked my email and luckily I saved my thing :). Happy ending

Study-Group Savvy

The courses that I would benefit from a study group are chemistry, biology, math, history and others which requires a lot of memorization.

Positive: I rarely get off track, I can get the group on track, I can share what I know and help in memorization

Negative: I analyze things too much and my ideas don't come to me that fast.

I think the test to see if I do have a learning disability and the result was I have nothing. I feel very fortunate and blessed. I do want to help people with learning disabilities because I know it ain't easy for them. I am thankful.

Daydream Believer

Sometimes it is inevitable to not daydream in class. There will be a reason to get you off track. some of the possible reasons are maybe the room is too hot or too cold. You have a problem. You can't understand what the teacher is saying or you saw a cute chick walking outside the class. One way to avoid daydreaming is whenever you come to class, you should not be hungry. Another is say in your mind that the information the teacher is giving you will help you later on.

Campus Movie Fest!

I actually have heard of this event a long time ago but I wasn't quite sure if I should go or not. But I made up my mind and I went to support the students of SJSU. I am really happy that I went because the event was awesome! Right when you get close to the location of the event, they made it feel like a real awards ceremony with those spotlights and the red carpet and the photographers. The auditorium was packed. A lot of people really looked forward for this event. There were a lot of really nice movies but some of them I didn't quite understand. The one I really liked was the "Top Of Her Class" video. It was so funny and the actors will really into it. I got interviewed to be on the paper which was pretty cool. I will definitely come back next year for more movies!

Video production project

Cool we finally have a video project and I was expecting a project like this when I signed up for the class so it was no problem for me. So what the project is about is groups will make their own videos and compete for views. Whoever gets the most views around December wins a prize. Each group should think a story where there should be a beginning, middle and end. Our story is going to be about two rival boxers making their way through the championship. We will also include a twist on the story. I believe that my group will do a good job as well as the other groups.

No Regrets

One important decision I made that was satisfying to me was my decision to come here in San Jose State. I originally wanted to go to a UC but due to other reasons, I chose to come here and so far I am really having a good time. In making decisions, I would say that always look at the bright side so the outcome will be better.

The Critical Difference

The critical difference test shows how you think critically as a person. After taking the test, I got a total of 16 on the left column, 23 on the middle and 13 on the right column. That means I belong to the consumer style.

Uh oh...

Last idk maybe Tuesday night, I went to SPX (Spartan Complex) to play some ball. But I really needed to go to the lil boys room so I went did my thing then I noticed someone was also in the bathroom.

I washed my hands then suddenly I looked in the mirror and I saw this girl smiling. I was like WTF is goin on! Then I went out after washing my hands then I looked at the sign in front of the door and guess what, yup I went to the Womens Bathroom.....BUT I swear that bathroom wasnt even the womens bathroom a week ago. It was a unisex bathroom. Then the unisex bathroom was beside the women bathroom. I was like ok..... wasnt the unisex bathroom suppose to be where the women bathroom is? lmfao
