During this first semester in physic’s class, I’ve learned way more than I even imagined possible and I think I’ve done pretty alright in this class. Going into physics in the beginning of the year (and most of quarter 1) was nerve-racking because I never really was good at any science class and having physics junior year sometimes really stressed me out. After surviving this class for a whole semester and getting a relatively good grade in it, I have proved to myself that if I put my mind to something…I can do it with my best effort. Since I know science isn’t my strong subject, I always try to take a little more time with the homework and studying since I know I need the extra help. Also from this first semester, I realized that physics is WAY more interesting than chemistry and biology since we’re dealing with things that I can actually see. The demonstrations help me understand what actually goes on, unlike chemistry where I can’t see anything. I think the main reason I’ve enjoyed physics so far this year though would have to be because of Mr. Blake. Personally, how much I like a teacher really determines how well I do in that class. Not to be mean, but I’m glad I didn’t get any other physics teacher because I know I wouldn’t have done as well…that I know for a fact. So all in all, this first semester in physics has opened my narrow-minded thinking and now I see things in a whole other perspective.
