Aha! Moments...

During 2007, I'm sure there were a great deal of us that went through frustrating times, whether they were serious problems or minor issues. Overall though, I found that I was able to overcome any problems I had, usually by simply being optimistic. For example, I'll confess that I did procrastinate several times on major assignments for school, and that I ended up staying up late. Being a relatively good student, I didn't want my work to suffer from these time constraints, but I was getting worried that I wouldn't be able to achieve what I wanted on these projects. Although I was almost in panic, I constantly told myself to think positively and focus on what I needed to do, and when I got my grade back, I had received perfect scores on both assignments. Another time when a frustrating situation seemed to suddenly fall into place was when I was working on my HTML-encoded webpages for my Webpage Design class. A good amount of the time, there were minor errors in the codes which made major problems in the webpage, but I worked hard to find them, fixed them appropriately, and everything worked out fine. There is no feeling like when you know you've done a good job on something you worked hard on, so these so-called "aha!" moments always make my day. I know to always focus whenever I have a difficult task ahead of me, so that I know no problems shall arise. I hope you all had a great 2007, as well as a happy holiday season. Happy 2008!
