Dr. Preston's course so far was been unusual but not in a bad way. The kind of unusual that makes you wonder what the course is about and what can get done. This was the first time I had ever heard of a "open source learning" In my mind I wonder If it was harder than a traditional English class or easier turns out it was none of that. What open source learning taught me are lessons of life whether Dr. Preston did it intentionally or not. I learned all about myself during the time I was in this class. I learned what happens when you are unprepared, I learned what happens when you procrastinate to much. Though I have done these things in the past and didn't really care. In this course things just hit differently when you don't come prepare and procrastinate for the first time in a class I felt like I need to change. In other classes I would always have the same habits of coming unprepared and procrastinate threw all my work and not do anything about it. But when It came to this class I felt like I had to change my way. So I did I learned to mange my time something that I guess I've never actually thought of and it took only one teacher for me to learn that. I learned to always be ready for anything and learned that future isn't far away and you need to do something with your life. All of this was the result of a course that taught me these thing directly and indirectly I look back at myself and see that I've changed as a student and a person. Yes there were times I didn't do my work and times I said I will do it later, but for all the times I said that It didn't get me anywhere and looking back I wish had done better, but you could only look at the past and learn from it. From now on I know the consequences of my actions and what it takes to win. I will care these lessons forward and hope that I become successful one day. To look back at this course as the foundation of my change and building block of success to come. I would sincerely like to thank Dr. Preston for opening the doors and showing me the ways. Thank you Dr. P :)
(p.s. Threw out the quarantine I didn't do much because of situations outside of my control and of the laziness of being indoors every single day and not have gone outside of my community (Tanglewood) in like 3 months, actually yesterday was the first time I had actually gone out to the store. So me saying all this may sound hypocritical and just a bunch of b.s, But I Sincerely meant it in every letter and word. Thank you :)
