I really like Academic Search Premier EBSCOhost the most.  I have used that database the most in the past for papers and to get references.   I like the layout of the database and I find it the easiest to navigate and find what I am looking for.

People should know how to respect others and be aware of other people. Some people don't think about what their impact has on another person's life and they don't care. People should care about that. Anything a person does affects another person in a different way.]]> 2020-09-02 19:52:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jaretembertson/Unit1/wish/716138783 Overall advice you would give or wish you knew jaretembertson https://padlet.com/jaretembertson/Unit1/wish/716185443
  • Work on your homework to the best of your ability.
  • Be passionate about what you like or love doing.
  • Stick with something. Don't give up after a little bit and tell yourself that something is too hard. 
  • If you can't figure out an answer come back to the problem later on and try solving it again.
  • If you don't understand something always ask for help.  There's nothing wrong with asking for help if you don't understand something.
  • Always be aware of your surroundings and what is happening.

  •   How do you want to be remembered?                                       I want to be remembered as a hard working man that helped many people in anyway that I could.  I also want to be remembered as someone that put others first rather than myself.  
  • Who  or what is most valuable to you?
    •        What is most valuable to me is my family and friends.  I believe that if I am always there for my family and friends that when  I need them hopefully they will be there for me too.

  • Eat more healthy meals for the year.  I need to eat more fruits and vegetables in my diet.  To measure this I will have a fruit and vegetable for both lunch and dinner and have more fruits in the morning for breakfast.  I believe this is achievable if I stick with it in order to help stay healthier.  My goal is to eat healthier for the next year in hopes that I will continue after that one year.
  • Finish my second year at CLC with 3.4+.  I want to achieve this because my GPA at CLC can help get me to a four year college in order to achieve my dream job of being an engineer.  I will accomplish this by doing good in all of my classes for this school year.
  • Drink more water for the next year.  Water is really good to drink and I want to be more healthy and drink more water.  They way I will achieve this is by drinking 3.7 liters of water a day which is an adequate fluid intake daily.  I want to live healthier and plan on being more healthy by drinking more water and will achieve this by the time I graduate in May 2021.
  • Workout more the next month and continue to increase exercising each month till this time next year.  I will swim, bike, and run more to achieve this and also start lifting weights again.  I want to stay in shape for as long as I can in life, which can help my chances of living a long full life.  I believe that this is achievable because I already work out but I can workout more than I do. I am currently not in any sports and I can tell I am a little out of shape from when I graduated high school in 2019.  I will continue to workout more over the next few months and into the next year but will check to see where I am at by the end of this fall semester as a benchmark.
  • Help my parents more over the next year with yardwork. While I'm taking classes at CLC and working a job I have cut back helping my parents with yardwork. With homework and work I just haven't had enough time to help more with yardwork other than on the weekends. During this time of the year more trees are losing leaves and we have a lot of trees in our yard. I have helped my dad pick up sticks before we mow over the leaves on the ground with our lawnmower. I will be able to measure this more by helping them when I get home from work during the week while it is still light out. Both of my parents are older and while I am at CLC and staying at home I am more than capable of helping them with all of the yardwork. It is important to me because since my parents are older, it is harder for them to get more yardwork done than they'd like to in the day. Before winter comes I plan to achieve getting as much yardwork done as I can before it snows and I have to wait till spring to do more things. However, during the winter I can help shovel snow more.

  • I get more done during the day earlier in the week rather than later in the week.  Like Mondays through Thursdays I can get a lot of homework done.  Fridays I have noticed I still do any schoolwork I have but I will tend to relax more going into the weekend.  
  • Fridays is mostly when I can help more at my house doing yardwork and help cleaning the house.  
  • Usually on the weekends I can relax more because I will have all of my homework done before the weekend. I think I can improve more during the week mostly on Fridays. Since I can relax most of the weekend, I could get more things done Friday than I do get done now. I can get more time by getting up earlier on Fridays in order to get as much done as I can.

I can also write things down that I need to do besides schoolwork and I can write down other things like doctors appointments and family plans. I plan on using a planner for the rest of t he time that I am in college and will continue using one for my future career as well. BY writing things down in a planner I can physcially check them off once I complete them to show and let myself know that I completed something that I need to do.]]> 2020-09-23 21:49:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jaretembertson/Unit1/wish/773898004
