pokemon




 An obsession I have had since childhood has been Pokemon. I remember the first time I got my ds and 3 games as a Christmas gift, one of them being Pokemon Fire Red. I don't know how many hours I've spent in total playing Pokemon but it probably has been over some thousand-hour mark. At this point, I'm not sure if I could call it an addiction or a fun hobby.



Even after some years have passed, I am still as big of a fan of Pokemon. Different generations,with different pokemons, and different regions always keeps the content feel fresh. There used to be only around 300+ now after a decade it has a number that surpassed a thousand. A monstrous number with tons of content that I could play for hours on end. Without the exhaustion of playing the game extensively or even running out of things to do. The possibilities are endless when I play pokemon.


So much time passed and I can't believe I'm already in college. Living out a life that I never imagined when I was little. Although I still do keep a portion of my little self through video games and reminiscing through different memories. I believe keeping that part of me will help kindle fond memories in the past. As I am entering a new chapter of my life, those times will show me how I grew from then to now. A person that is now striving for big things in their life.

college challenge

      I have been doing well in college so far. But the one thing that sticks out the most and has challenged me is time management. Not in the sense of being all around the campus and doing homework until the last second, but deciding what to fill it with. My schedule has been blocked out with classes for each day and times of practice, potential work hours, and studying. However, I found it so difficult to incorporate other things like club opportunities because some of the times class with each other. Or finding time to lift because homework is due still. Nonetheless, its a constant trial-and-error run for me and slowly but surely I'm improving upon it.

Searches

Cardinal search was quite a useful tool for me, as it made my research paper easier to create with its available sources. Initially, I felt overwhelmed as I had no idea how to filter through the various sources. Time was limited and I had activities outside of school that kept me preoccupied. Although the search engine made it significantly find sources to strengthen my paper. It made the process much smoother as I found specific sources with the conditions I needed to earn the points needed. Enabling different filters on the search engine made sorting through different types of journals/sources easier, rather than spending most of my time through Google Scholar and finding sources that were either not as useful or had no correlation. More importantly, the recommendations I was given continuously furthered and gratefully supplemented my research in reinforcing my points. Incredibly I understood my topic greatly and understood both sides clearly. I can confidently say Cardinal Search ha...

Addiction

       I have been keeping track of my thrifting purchasing and the lack of space that continues to grow. To give some context, my dorm is already filled with my clothes, and have exhausted the space for extra space for clothing. At this point, I resorted to selling and swapping articles of clothing each time I went back home for the week. On the bright side though, I've grown and explored many more different styles now. With the minor but also a major drawback of my checking account tanking down at a steady rate. Fingers won't be pointed but I will say that my mom is also a shopaholic, and in my defense, she influences my purchases every week on our son and mother's excursion to the thrift stores. If worse comes to worse then I will ask Goodwill to have ban me from their vicinity until I'm financially stable again.
