Who Will Forget “C”?
As months passed, I expect that the lessons in C Language will be hard and even harder, complicated and even more complicated especially this “fourth-time around”. Yes! It’s already fourth grading but this doesn’t mean that I have to be confident in Computer Science. It is true that we cannot escape from our expectations because every matter counts, human being has his own expectations. Like me, I have so many “hopes” and “wishes”. “Sana ganito…,sana ganoon…”,sometimes I say to myself. I expect that Ms. Gallardo will give many quizzes and hands-on exercises but I understand that all of these will help us understand the lessons or her lectures. And for all of these I thank you ma’am. I hope that my score in the Fourth Periodic Exam will become higher compared to that of in the Third Grading. Of course, I don’t want my grade in CSIII to decrease, now that it is already the last quarter. It is not good to see in my report card that my final grade in CSIII is low. So I’m trying my very best to study for me to learn even more this last quarter. I listened very well to my teacher’s lecture. I practiced writing a valid C program. I participated and cooperated in every hands-on exercise. And I will show to Ms. Gallardo that she became a good CS teacher to me, to us people of section Mendel, and I appreciate all her efforts for us to really learn. And I know that all of these can help me during my college life. I am thankful to God because He gave me strength, guidance and support in every challenge I encountered.
My memorable experiences are just the same in the past three quarters. I could say that the memorable events I have experienced are the hands-on exercises of each group. I was very excited when there was a hands-on exercise that each group must finish at a given time or earlier than that to gain higher score. For me, this event is like a race that each player is serious and focused, all aiming for the gold. But as the race was over, all players are happy and enjoyed the experience or moment in that race. One time, we were very happy because we’re the only group (Group 9-TIAMMY) that understands how to do that particular program and so we got 10 points!!!
On the other hand, my embarrassing moments are: When there is a new lesson in CS and Ma’am will ask some questions and no one in our section can answer that. For example is when she asked what an array is. Everybody was quiet. So Ma’am asked if that was the first time we heard the word “array”. Oh! That is an embarrassing experience. But now I learned that array is a collection of two or more adjacent memory cells. I was also confused with the lesson “nested for” because I was absent when Ma’am Gallardo taught that lesson. I don’t know what is its difference in relation to for statement.
I could say that until now, it is quite difficult to write completely a valid and correct C program alone. Maybe it is better if there is assistance from other group members or if we have teamwork and cooperation in hands-on exercises. Still, it is easier for me to write the output of a given program than to write a whole program.
As a whole, of course my main goal is to get a high grade in Computer Science III this last grading period. I can make it if I will study harder and comply with all my requirements for example projects. I will improve or even change my weaknesses and I will develop my strengths and lastly I will try my best to regain the trust and love of C Language to me. Who will forget “C”? I think…nobody!
