REFLECTION FOR MIDTERM

When I first checked the google classroom, especially the assigned topics for group reporting,
naturally, I was terrified. But since I wanted to pass this subject, I researched our group topic
so profoundly that I couldn’t sleep well for a week night. The topic was Bernoulli’s equation.
Luckily, after a tiresome week, I was able to get the hang of it, so that’s why this is what I
find a bit comfortable out of all the topics. The first goal in this is to transform the given
problem or equation into a linear form so we can proceed with its process in solving. So, if
n=1 or 0, the equation will be linear, and there is no need to make a change of variable to
solve the equation.

The lesson that I find most difficult is coefficient linear in two variables. This is very tricky
from what I remembered during the group report because the process is very lengthy. And
honestly, even up to now, I still struggle with it. But I will try and try and allocate time for
the topics that still confuse me because the only way to master something is to never give up
trying no matter how many times we fail. That’s what I will do, and also pray to God to guide
me in my engineering venture.

I have learned to never be complacent, and make the most of every vacant time to learn to be
better and master the field that I am currently taking. I’ve already started the investment of
time, effort, and money into it, so I always feel the need to finish what I started. And
whenever I get anxious when facing complex tasks, I must remain calm and compose myself
because struggling is normal, but giving up isn’t. If I fail at some point, then I will try again.
And do good to be better and become the best in what I do.
