Five months away and I will finally graduate from San
Francisco State University. Four years of struggling and being on academic
probation I am finally at the stage where I could say that I will be done with
SFSU.
Fall 2012 was amazing. I took four classes and the best
class that I have ever taken at San Francisco State University would be AAS 352
Filipina/o American Literature, Art, and Culture. I finally took a class taught
by an awesome professor, Allyson Tintiangco-Cubales.
I was hesitating of taking the class. I hate taking
afternoon classes which tend to be long and boring but this class was
interesting. It was helped out by awesome instructor aides. They were very
helpful on giving great feedbacks to the students. What was also great was
given chances (re-writes, ideas).
I learn how to be a better poem writer and performing in
front of people. It made me a better person and I want to continue speaking and
writing poetry.
Here what I am going to miss about the class, the people
that were in it. It was until the end that I got to know them. We pulled a
great show at Longfellow Elementary. It took a lot of effort to make sure that
the show went great. I will admit that I was afraid that it would be a disaster
but it turn out great.
If I was to rate this class I would give it an A+ with four
stars and two thumbs up. I would love to have people take this class. I learn plenty
of different lecture involving Filipinos through art and literature. People
should take this class. It is worth taking.
I am trying to stay positive and not worry about anything. I
just need to stay on tracks with my studies and pay attention what is mention
in class.
