First review for team role

After a nice friend's introducing, I found two students who were also looking for roommates for second year acconmendation. With another friend of mine, we formed a group of 4 immediately after our basic requirements matched, i.e. location.

After searching on the website of acconmedation we got over 40 results, so we discussed what else is essential to us. Since we did not have some strong preference. I suggested that a seperate W.C could be good then we ended up with 2 options. At last, I prefer the one which is nearer to the city center and this one is also cheaper than the other. So others agree. We booked a house for viewing. This afternoon, the group leader sent me a text that the appointment is 6pm in the weekend. I replied that "I am okay with it." 

I think this is a chance for me observe how the team works and participate.

Although I am not the group leader, I will try my best to find a nice place to live for four of us.

Third review for making notes

The new method of constructing notes makes my notes more clear and changable.

Recording key words help me to catch up with the lecturers' notes. But there are still some problems in understanding the lecture and writing notes simtaneously.

For the exams, I did not do well. There are several reasons, such as time allocation, choice of questions and too slow thinking with my homework.

Third review for reading

During the last term and vacation, I think that the previous problem that I tried to read with an aim of learning something from the book returns. It made me less patient with what the author try to build or what the words try to grow.

Don't be too anxious so that I can follow with the interest grown from the text but not the relief from finishing one page. This is what I said to me.
