Unit 1 LAB
Maintaining Focus in Despair
Class: GS2745
Date: 09/23/13
Unit#: 1
Lab#:1

I can recall a time where I had to maintain focus and persistence in spite of obstacles that I was facing at the time. This is in fact, in recent history as I was going through a combination of events that seems to have come out of nowhere. I am a full time student, and set to graduate in two quarters. Around the end of Spring quarter and beginning of the Summer Quarter, I lost my job. In addition to that, I was the nearing the end of a long term relationship. Not to mention, it is the start of the Summer! I had to motivation to continue in my education. My main focus was to find work. Money that I had saved up was fading, and fading fast. What makes matters worse, I was unable to receive unemployment. I knew that I needed to find a job soon. So as you can imagine, that last thing on my mind is getting my education, much less finishing up the summer quarter. But, with all that was going on I’m my life, and the combination of emotions and feelings coming and going in my head, I know that I did not come this far to quit now. If I can compare those feeling to a football season, then it would be similar in many ways. All the hard work, injuries, fatigue, blood, and sweat that was endured during the regular season and playoffs, just to give up and fold during the Super Bowl is not an option. In conclusion, I did maintain focus and I made it through the summer quarter, but barely. It was not very pretty, in fact was my worst quarter in my time in school, but nevertheless, I made it through. I also started a new job that pays well. And as far as that relationship, well, let’s just say I’ve already moved to bigger and better things. And so far so good.

    Where do maggots come from? Are they a self-born, spontaneous generation or are they mothered by something or someone? I actually asked myself that question numerous times while finding maggots on few things myself. I also wonder the same about fruit flies. Seems like as soon as I buy fruits, fruit flies fill my house almost the same day while all windows and doors closed. This experiment of maggots was quiet fun and put my personal hypothesis to rest.…
