At the end of each semester, i like to look back and think about what i did well and what i need to work on. this semester was not my semester. i started strong, but i gradually fell off toward the end. this is not to say i didn't do well, i still managed to finish with As in most classes and thoroughly leaned my course material. but despite this, i felt i could've done much better. the work i put forward this semester was regrettably not my best effort. in the beginning, it was. but toward the end of the year, a combination of stress, overworking myself, and a series of personal issues left me exhausted. this is what i attribute to my fall. this semester was easily the worst time of my life by far, and it definitely showed in my motivation, attitude, and work.

Personally i can learn from this because I've felt that any non-major related class isn't worth my time and as such i haven't been really putting in my full effort into these classes. eventually, should i continue to think this way, my grades will reflect my lack of effort or i can change my...
