Self Evaluation of my academic year (2009). LAST POST!!

If I'm going to evaluate my academic year I have to say, first at all, that it is broken in two parts which are very different. I mean, it has been a year with very changes that have been occurred according to my necessities. If you read one of my old post, you will see that my first term was very hard. Now, on contrary, the situation is totally different. I am going to explain it, because the "lovely Judy" (Herrada, 2009) is asking for me.


The first term was an academic term with a lot of classes, which means with a lot of learning and knowledge. I had like 5 o 6 subjects, quantity that was in my top, on my limit. In addition to a lot of other activities, extra-academic ones, the situation was finally collapsing.


The academic element that most help me to handle that situation is, of course, good subjects or subjects that I really like. In generally it should be a common situation to me, because I really like this degree; nevertheless, fourth year is not such a good as the third one. Adding and subtracting, that first term is half good and half bad; it means, like 3 good subjects and another 3 bad or boring subjects.


Well, the point is that it was colapsating because it was too much. This unpleasant conditions made me took the decision of create a second term very relaxing and with time to focus on me centrally.


It is to say, now I am in a relaxing situation that is ending, just this quiet term is also ending.
In this term I have like 4 or 5 subjects, and are subjects very undemanding and light. I guess I have learned just a little, but it is something that I needed. How can I relation that idea with the other idea about I like this degree? Well, I am so relaxed now that I am sure I will read a lot of sociology in this vacations, at contrary of some friends that right now are collapsed and don’t want to se more sociology in some months. That is more strong when they have (as me) four years completed here, thing that creates the conditions that some friends now want to read about other topics because are a little boring with sociology points of view.


What had been my academic year, that is ending such as I wanted. We will see how is going to be the next one.

Free time interests/activities/hobbies

Mi free time is a lot. More even, is too much right now.

In my free time, that exactly never is "free" because is used in something, I read a little, I review my email to coordinate my political activities and other kind of things, I watch movies and I play soccer.

Nevertheless, in this period I have so much time that one central activity in my life is taking a rest. I am sleeping a lot; I needed. But I have slept so much that now I will stop now; I don’t want it more, I dont need it any more and for that it will finish in these days.

Well, awake, I am doing things that I like too to don't get stress. One activity I am doing more and more is playing soccer. It is very good, because with some friends we have made a soccer team and every day is getting more important to us, trying to outdo. For that I like this activity. I love soccer.

Also I like to participate in policy. Basically, I participate in two social-political organizations, and in a political-student organization of degree. I like this since years ago, when I started to learn with some friends and when I started to do of this something central in my life that I dont want never to abandon.

And finally, especially when I dont want "to do nothing", when I want to take a rest without things problems, I watch films in my house. I prefer to be alone without light (if I am not with friends in other house).

But, what I most like to do in my "free time" is, of course: being with my friends having good times. Speaking about life, getting hide o wherever, but centrally knowing how they are, etc. I do it in the University, where we drink a little of bear or where are relaxing out of classes. But I like most to do it with my friends of all my life, because I dont see them so much and also because they always are there to talk, when I need it and when I dont.
I would like to have more time to do all this, but centrally to see my friends that I have not seen in these days. For that, what I don’t want to do –sometimes-, when it is eating into my freetime, is to do to much stuff to university. I want vacations.
