My first cuny class was actually very informative and very enjoyable. I felt like the class was easy to wrap around your head as well as will be to follow throughout the next several months. One thing I enjoyed was how we were all able to talk with one another as well as work independently. I prefer working alone as it just works best for me and talking with others really isn't. So the balance of both was something I found enjoyable since it is not just completely talking. Another thing I enjoyed as well was what we will be learning about throughout the class. This week I looked after myself by doing some self-care. My self-care wa…
My name is Samantha Griffiths and my first CUNY class was good. I enjoyed the group discussions we had. I looked after myself this week by making time for myself. I would get my academics,chores done, etc and then do something’s that made me happy. The actives that make me happy includes listening to music, drawing, watching TV, etc. I came across the freeze self-care in middle school. The way I would motivate others to get into self-care includes tell them all the benefits of applying self-care in your life. I would show them that their mental, physical and emotional well-being is essential to being healthy. Self care can build better resilience to stress and can motivate others which ca…

1) My first cuny class was great I enjoyed the discussions and the tasks we had to due because it made me think outside the box when it comes to my career.

2) This week I looked after myself by going out and hanging with friends, listened to music, and I also did laundry and cleaned up my room.
3) For me self care is when you’re taking care of yourself physically mentally and emotionally. I…

I did enjoy my first CUNY class.
I think, It was a class that made me understand what leadership is really about, and what comes with it. It was a nice first class, because I had the opportunity to interact with other classmates, and it was interesting learning everyone's point of view when it comes to say if a leader was born or made. The background about leadership and how always it has been present.
This week I went a few times to take a long walk, meanwhile listening to my favorite playlist.
I also spent a lot of time with my pets which I love, they bring me so much peace.
For me "Self-care'', it's quality time…

My first CUNY class was great. It was very informative and we did assessments that helped me find careers that may suit me based on the type of person I am . I learned that I may do good in business fields as I like to lead and persuade people . I looked after myself this week by catching up on very needed sleep. Today I did a face mask and lip scrub to help clear my mind and prepare myself for the week. I haven’t done it in a while so it was nice to do some self care. I’ve come across the phrase “self care” during discussions about taking care of yourself and personal hygiene. It…
