Reflecting

CAS has always been a class I have enjoyed. It’s a time where I can work on something I love and am passionate about, something that drives me forward. ALthough this is true, nothing is perfect and there are always things that aren’t so great. At the beginning of CAS I choose a short but large project. I was nervous but excited for the task. Once I started I was overwhelmed, nervous and not always in the greatest of moods. I had lost the fun in it. However there is always a way to turn something positive. This not only taught me to deal with stress it also taught me how to push forward, work collaboratively, and just prepared me for IB and life overall. One of my favorite CAS memorises of all time is on December 20, 2018. I woke up at 6 am went to CEPIA and was awarded the satisfaction to know I would be able to deliver on my promise. I stayed at CEPIA until about 3 in the afternoon passing out gifts, hanging out with friends and family and achieving my goal that I had set for myself. It is a day I will never forget. I am proud of it. Although I started CAS strong after this I got on a slow patch. ALthough I had an amazing idea I wasn’t able to initiate it. I have a large problem with this in life. I am a great planner but falter when it comes to actual doing it. This is something I am still working on in life and something I hope to evolve and change in the future. I took on a new project in which I am working under a supervisor. I can’t mess up, I have to work, I have to move forward even if I’m nervous. I will practice my planning and by initiating of an activity rather than being afraid to do so.
