Intellectual Goals

This year I have need to have a few intellectual goals. My first goal is to get my work done faster. I usually wait until ten o'clock before I start on my homework. I need to work on this because I am not getting a lot of sleep at night. I will try to do my homework and go to bed earlier from now on. Also, I will not wait until the last minute to do any projects. I have done this before and even if I finish the project, it still doesn't come out as good as it should. I will try to improve these goals this year.

Newsletter Project

This week in computers we are working on a homecoming newsletter assignment. It was pretty easy to write. There are two other people in my group. I wrote about how on each day of the week, we could wear a t-shirt besides Friday. The other topics in our group have to do with the football game and other activities for Homecoming. We also have to include pictures and make it look professional. It was a very fun project.

Emotional Goals

This year at Notre Dame I am going to try and grow more emotionally. In our handbook, it says that PND is here to nurture the spiritual, emotional, intellectual, and physical development of their students. This year, I'm going to try to go to bed earlier, because I usually stay up kind of late and then ending up spacing out during school or daydreaming (especially in my first classes). That is the only goal I can think of on improving this year.

My saint assignment

This week in computer class we had to do a saint project. I chose Saint Patrick of Ireland. I chose him because he is one of my favorite saints and he's the patron saint of Ireland, and I'm mostly Irish. This was a pretty easy project because there is a lot of information about St. Patrick. It was really interesting to find out more stuff about him that I didn't already know. I finished this project in one day and I hope we have more that are this easy.

Spiritual Goals

My next post has to do with spiritual goals and developments this year. I have a couple things that I feel I should work on and improve this year. First, I am going to go to Mass more often. I will participate in Mass and actually pay attention instead of just saying what I normally say. Also, I think I should listen and pay attention more when we say morning prayer. I usually just stand there because I am so tired, but I will try to be more alert now. Hopefully, I will improve on these goals by the end of the school year.

Storyboard Project

For computer class we have to do a storyboard. I chose the song " Go, Cubs, Go" by Steve Goodman. We have to put pictures and lyrics to go along with the song. This has been my favorite project so far because we get to choose something we want to write about instead of having to follow something else. The Chicago Cubs are the best team ever and anybody that wants to say anything about them can comment this blog, whether it's good or bad. Go Cubs!
