Goals!

An academic goal for me this quarter is either, teach myself, watch from others, or learn more in class to improve my writing skills. I plan to write more descriptively, use better vocabulary, and learn more about proper punctuation. This is probably the thing I want to achieve the most this quarter, and most likely for the rest of the year. But, for now I focus on just this quarter instead of the rest of the year. I want to do this because I feel as if I can do a lot better on my writing than what I'm doing now, and with just some practice I can and will do so. I think that, even if I don't succeed, I would be learning useful things. I plan on getting there by teaching myself, reading, or during assignments that require paragraphs to be written. Definitely, a lot of practice. I plan to write a lot this quarter, in and out of school.
A personal goal for me would probably have to be a tie between drawing, and controlling my emotions better. Drawing is more of a thing that would be nice to have and to do, since it mostly cheers me up. Although, at times, it could be really frustrating. I look at the drawing and always pick at it, saying the hair could be better, I did bad on the face, and all these different things. I believe that doing better would probably make me less frustrated so I will at least be content with it instead of picking at it.
Controlling my emotions, there are a lot of emotions going on in my brain right now. So many, that even if someone asked what I was feeling, I would have to sit there contemplating which one would be better to say. I know this isn't the easiest thing to control, or may even be impossible to control, but I would like to at least try. With controlling my emotions, I'd be a better person in my opinion. I won't be so, confused. I won't get so easily hurt, offended, or angry with a conversation. Being too sensitive like I am is a difficult thing, even if something little was muttered or said, I assume the worst. I'm really paranoid about people talking about me, so I try to trick myself into thinking that there really isn't a reason for people to speak about me behind my back. It works, for the most part.
Hopefully, all these things will be accomplished! I'm wishing for the best.
