Tiger Woods Ignores his Needy Brother

Tiger Woods Ignores his Needy Brother

Reflection: I think it was wrong the way Tiger Woods treats his brother. All his brother wanted was some help and support from him but he couldn’t even give him that. I think that Tiger Woods is greedy and very self-centered. His doesn’t seem to care about anything besides himself and his money. I think that tiger Woods should start thinking about other people especially his family instead of ignoring them and not caring.

 You Can Succeed Every Day          

Part 1

My overall study method: I break up studying over several days and over the course of the evening and day. Cramming never works for me so I try not to do it. I will have longer sessions on nights before big tests, but I never stay up much later than normal before tests. I know that if I take the test tired the next day I will not do as well as if I were rested.

How I’ve overcome an initial bad grade: I usually look over the test or paper to see what I did that the teacher did not want. Basically I don’t stress about bad grades that much because for me they are not worth getting really upset about. I do well because I know that I know the material. However, if I do get a bad grade, or one lower than I expected, I make sure that the next time a test is coming I study even more so that I won’t be surprised by the questions.

How ideal with multiple projects/tests: When I have more than one test or project, I break up my studying. I will study for one test for 30 minutes or so and then switch to the other one. If there is some part of a project that I know will not take me long, I will do it when I don’t have much time. If I am really in a crunch for time on a specific day, I will study for one test in the morning and the other in the afternoon or at night. By breaking up the studying into different sections, I feel like I get much more done. Cram sessions do not work for me. I need to study something for a shorter period of time more often for it to sink in.

My time management secret: My secret is to use time wisely. I know that on certain days I do not have time to run errands or hang out with friends even. Each minute of each day is used for something. One thing that works really well for me is to write everything down. I mean everything. I write down if I am going to email people, write letters, or study. It works for me to have a planner that goes by the day and shows me what I am going to do every day. Knowing what I have to do every day helps me plan out my week and my days. If I know that I don’t have time on Tuesday, I will try to get more things done on Monday or Sunday. I plan ahead, especially if I am going to be on the road for volleyball. When I am on the road, I bring my books and read on the bus/plane/hotel room. Missing class is killer to make up from but if you are upfront with your professors, they are usually nice about having to turn things late or not being in class.

My Vacation

   My Vacation

During my vacation I went ice skating on Christmas. It was in the knight when we went. It was me, my two sisters, my little brother and my sister's boyfriend. when we got there the first thing we did was to put on the skates. It was really hard to walk on them so when I put them on i quickly when to the ice. But it was even harder on the ice. I kept on falling and throughout the whole time that I was skating in the ice. I stopped skating for a while so I can watch my sisters and my brother fall down. When we wen home I saw that I had bruises everywhere.

After we went ice skating we opened our presents. I got clothes, money, and a cute little green piggy bank. My sister also got clothes and money. My brother got a lot of the toys that he wanted. The next day we didn't do anything except eat the left over food.

On January the 3rd it was my brother's birthday. My sister and I went to get him a toy that he really wanted. Then we ate chocolate cake until it was all gone. The next day we went to the Santa Monica Pier for a whole day and most of the night.

My test study method: When it comes time to study for the test, I usually start 2-3 days before the test. I go through my notes and make flashcards on what was important for those sections, paying special attention to what the teacher said would be on the test if there was a review session. Also, I go through the book and read the inset stories and add to my flashcards. If there are practice problems or online assignments or odd tests, I use those to help me study for the test as well. Once the test is over, I keep the flashcards so that I have them for the next test or for the final. Flashcards are a marvelous learning tool. The key to remembering something is to repeat it numerous times-spaced rehearsal. If you forget something, it is because you haven’t you haven’t repeated it enough times. Repetition is a law of learning; therefore, to learn and remember, to recall, it is mandatory that you repeat over and over the things you desire to learn and remember. You may be thinking, “Oh, no, repeating something.” You need to get used to it. For example, the more you practice a song on the piano, the better the better you become at playing that song. Learning and remembering is like playing the piano-the more you practice saying or doing it the better you can remember it. Look now at what you remember. You remember it because you have repeated it numerous times since the first being exposed to it. So. Practice rehearsing those things you desire to remember, and they will stick with you.
