Assignment 24-Lin

 Unexpected. Hectic. Spontaneous. All words I would use to describe this year but one thing it has taught me is how to be adaptable and how to be responsible for my school work without a teacher actively enforcing instruction. The NTI that started last April of 2020 was something that lacked preparation so when we started school in August, the more strict schedule was something to adapt to. The lack of in person classes made learning from a distant less effective as constant distractions to get up and move or look at other stuff made staying on task difficult. As this year went, I learned how to be responsible for work as what the teachers can do during the hour period on zoom is limited to how much they can teach. A friend in college told me that this is what college is like. The lack of an active teacher enforcing due dates is common and the shorter school days leave the day up to the students to decide how to spend it. In a way, this unexpected, hectic and spontaneous school year has helped me learn an important self-discipline skill. With the semester almost ending, I look forward to normalcy during the summer and a more opportunities to enjoy our last year of high school next semester.
