In class last week, we finished presenting our Adaptive Mindset Assignment (AMA). A few classmates including myself presented. I read my story without any hesitation. I had no issue's speaking to the class. And in turn I received really great feedback. A few suggestions were to begin my story with a symptom, or when I first started college and take out the part about high school. As well as, discuss in further details how I had/ have a growth mindset.
My classmate Anna's AMA really stuck out, in the best way. She wrote about personality types and her personality type (phlegmatic) adapting. "Phlegmatics are stuck trying to connect and adapt to be stimulated in a sanguine world" I had never heard this terms before, Thank you for teaching me this Anna.
In class we also discussed the Elevator Pitch we had to prepare for, as part of our midterm portfolio. I struggled to figure out exactly what to say over the course of the week. I researched elevator pitch's for college students, and for students arguing a grade. Finally after several days of brainstorming on this project, I completed my argument. And I can not wait to hand it in tomorrow.
At home I had a good week. My fiancé and I went to a haunted house with our friend Pete. Then last night I surprised Brandon (my Fiancé) with dinner at his moms house. A few weeks ago I asked him mom to coordinate her day off with mine and Brandon's. I told him I would be gone for a little while Monday and could not tell him why yet. To my surprise he didn't ask many questions. So, yesterday morning I got up, went grocery shopping, and headed to my future mother in laws house in Boyertown. She helped me make chicken piccata with asparagus, and potatoes. While we were cooking Brandons mom called him and told him to come over because she "got a piece of furniture stuck in the hallway". He then called me asking when I would be home and told me he was going to his mom's. A little while later Brandon showed up at his moms house and was surprised I had dinner ready for him. He later told me he knew I was at his moms house the whole time. Apparently I am not good at surprises.
Today Is an emotional day. My older brother Justin would be 23 today. Unfortunately, he passed away 2 and a 1/2 years ago. We were really close and I miss him every single day. There is a whole in my heart which can never be filled. To wish him a happy birthday the past two years I have baked a cake. This year I made brownies, because who doesn't love brownies?
I love you Justin, Happy Birthday big brother!!!!
