To "BELIEVE" or Not to "BELIEVE" that is the question!!!!!!!

Something that every man and woman should always remember when accomplishing goals, such as college, work, projects etc. is to always belive in yourself!!! If you belive in yourself then you will go far and you will have more courage and determination in what you are trying to pursue!! If you don't believe in yourself, who will?? NO ONE WILL!!! You are your only inspiration. Others may seem to be an inspiration to you, but truly YOU are your only inspiration in what ever you do!!! All you have to do is BELIEVE in yourself!!!!!!

2. Get to know your instructors

It think it is so important to get to know your instructors because there needs to be a level of communication and understanding between you guys. You should be able to ask them things when you need to. They are also going to be the ones as (as well as yourself)who determine if you pass or not..

So it's always good to know your professors

Is it me or does Lealan sound like a grown man in a 13 yr old body???? becuase he just seems more mature for his age, maybe its the street life that cuases you to grow up faster??

6. Believe in yourself.

I think that this is the most important aspect of the bridge program. We are doing this for ourselves. 

Stay motivated.

I'll have a number 3, please

I will be selecting my major carefully. Which by doing this I am doing a few of the other items as well. I wouldn't dare spend this much money on school and choose this major unless I believe in myself and treat school like a full time job.
So yes, I believe in selecting my major carefully. It's where I draw my strength and potential from. I couldn't get through the next four years without knowing that after all this is over, I will be a journalist. I'll be equipped and ready to run. Not in an effort to steal from another schools slogan but, Just watch me.... create change.
If you were wondering, I'm a magazine journalism major.

School's a full time job

I agree with the tip treat college like a full time job. You need to have a full commitment to school otherwise you wouldn't be interested. Also, you wouln't have a full commitment within the school. The commitment you show in your studies will let your instructors,classmates, friends and family know that you're serious and they will contribute to by helping you and showing you support. When i was in school I didn't consider it a full time job at all. I just thought of it as something i was wasting my time at, so I was pretty much just pissed away high school because, I was barely going and I was just going to talk to my friends and go to my major which was theater (acting). I didn't take it serious until i started thinking hard about my future. I needed some structure if i wanted to succeed I need to go to college. Obviously I need to pass high school. So I treated as if it was a full time job (temporarily) and I graduated. I also learn that if you piss away your time you will pretty much hold yourself back because i was almost to the point where i wasnt going to graduate on time and was failing with a low GPA which nobody wants. So thats why i agree with school is a full-time job.

How was Bridge, how was your first day?

I had a great time today class. Thanks, it's good to have those types of teaching days. I applaud you guys for risking it all right now. It is something most people will never do. You should be proud of yourselves and your peers.

Leave a comment on how your day was.


P.S. here is a little video I acted in for a directing friend of mine.

ASSIGNMENT

For today's blog, out of the many we will have, I want you to respond to the six tips for success in Columbia. They were: 1. Treat college like a full time job. 2. Get to know your instructors. 3. Select your major carefully. 4. Study Smart. 5. Know your options. 6. Believe in yourself.

I want you to respond to ONE of these elements. In this response you should acknowledge why it is important, if you are doing it right now (and why or why not, and then how you can do it or improve on it), and then relate a life point to when you should have had this knowledge (maybe one time in school you didn't believe in yourself). These answers can be short, but thoughtful. DON'T SIMPLY PUT "I AGREE" and then stop. Try writing fully.
