Assignment 1: Early Reflection and Assignment 5: Portfolio Statement (Autumn Quarter Reflection)
This was assigned on the first week of class at the UW and asked us to answer a few questions. How did you get here? What was your personal path to the UW and to Honors? What do you hope to learn and explore while you are here? Where do you want to go from here? When I wrote the paper (approximately two months ago), I respond with uncertainty to the last two questions, but it gave me a nice start to thinking about my goals. Has my response changed? Yes, but I still am unsure. My goals now, as explained in assignment 5 (a follow-up on assignment 1), are still vague: to have a better idea of what I would like to do and to find a major that satisfies my interests, among others. Even after two months, I remain clueless. However, I feel that the assignments were good reflections to mark the stages of my growth during the course of my life at the UW, and I am excited to refer to it in my future and compare.
