The first mini assignment I chose is the 168 Hour Assignment.

For the assignment we had to fill

out a table with all kinds of different things we do in the week like eat, shower, go to work, and

go to school while also keeping the 168-hour mark in mind. I had a good experience on this

assignment because visualizing how much work and studying you must get done puts everything

into perspective. I have a lot of things in my chart like playing video games, eating, hanging with

friends, watching tv, and work before I imputed things like my school schedule and hours for

studying. The assignment helped me realize I need to dial it back on the video games and

hanging out with friends a little bit so that I can create more time for studying and focusing all

my attention on class.

The second assignment I chose was the Advertisement Flyer assignment. The directions of the

assignment were to choose a topic for your flyer and come up with your own slogan for your

target audience. I had a lot of fun with this assignment because I knew my target audience was

going to be teenagers (<19) and I knew I was going to use a video game reference. I watch a lot

of videos about the popular game Among Us where I based my flyer from. I thought the little

astronaut character matched an orange perfectly and it all came together perfectly in my mind.

After getting my finished product together, my classmates gave me positive comments on my

flyer and it really boosted my confidence. I learned a lot about appealing to my audience and

receiving positive feedback on my assignment.

The third assignment I chose to reflect on is the mini case study we did on cardiovascular

disease. The assignment required us to assess a situation where a young college student was

diagnosed with high blood pressure and poor cholesterol readings but chose to not worry over

the reading since she is still very young. We reflected on the importance of taking care of our

health and following up on our checkups. A diagnosis like that could end up being a problem
sooner rather than later so we should do our best to take care of ourselves now rather than when

we are older.
