Jan 19th Learning Journal/ Professionalism BLOG

We were assigned to write about what we expect of ourselves as students/professionals in training.
I believe that when we are students, we must act in a certain professional manner in order to fully be able to obtain our goals. By refering to our goals, I mean we are choosing education to give us an opportunity for bettering ourselves and obtaining a career. Not only does being a student educates ourselves in our certain feild of study in order to get that career, but it must make us grow on a different level as well. Being a student we learn that we must use our time management well, show up for classes, make deadlines, and be responsible. I believe that over the years of my studies I have grown to be a more dedicated student, and most of all obtained the skills needed to succeed in the professional world of business.

Professionalism Blog Jan 12ths class

Since this was Tinas first class, I cannnot fully compile if I grew professionally. So instead I will comment on how I believe I have evolved since my first day in University. I look back to when I first came here and really understand how much I have molded ever since. I was very young, and naive when first arriving to university but much of me has changed since. I have been through alot of learning experiences the past couple of years. But the biggest learning experience was when I had my baby girl Kylie. Since Oct 2008 I had a new outlook on life and had many things to change to make sure we could manage on our own. I have been dating my wonderful boyfriend for 3 and a half years now and we have been through everything together even bought our own house this past august. Making these life changing steps has made me more mature, and yes more professional. I now realize that school is something we should take advantage of, and it should be viewed as a job or work. And that we wouldnt just not attend work, or dress or act unappropriately at work. So this is what personally helps me to approach University in a different level, with the upmost professionalism and respect.

1st Blog

So im not exactly sure what we should be writing for our learning journal blog. So i figured I would share the fact that I did learn how to get my blog going. Last week we had learned about creating a video using and Imac software, which i thought was pretty cool since Ive had an Imac for 2 years now and still dont know how to use it to its full potential. Other then that I look forward to working with my fellow students and future leaders as Tina call us.
Have a great day
