It\u2019s essentially the process of looking back and learning from our experiences. Now that we\u2019re smack in the middle of finals, I\u2019ve been having those \u201cwhen will we ever actually use this in real life\u201d rants. To keep my morale up I\u2019ve decided to actually apply what I learned in school (!!!!) and be reflective about 2014! How fitting considering this is my last blog post of 2014!\r\n\r\nI\u2019ve had the busiest but most rewarding summer of my life, working three jobs while doing summer school. I was a more active part of the extracurricular scene at U of T, joining the executive team of several clubs I was interested in during first and second year. I\u2019ve also even managed to fulfill some of my 2014 New Year\u2019s Resolutions by bringing my grades up, staying more organized and eating healthier.\r\n\r\n
