First Interview Reflection
In this first interview, I was very nervous because I am the
person who don’t really talk much to people I am not close
with. I am kind of an introvert.
The day before the interview I could not sleep because I am
nervous; however, after the interview I realize that it wasn’t
that bad. I have learnt that sometime I need to push myself to
talk to people to improve my communication skill. I have
discovered that the reason why I am not comfortable talking to
some people is that I don’t like the feeling at the start of
the conversation but after that awkward moment pass, the
taking to people suddenly become fun and interesting.
Another thing, Mr. Matt told me that e can see that I am
nervous and I should be more calm. So, I have learnt that I
should not show nervousness to the interviewee in any of the
interview.
Date:
23/11/20
What did I do today?
● I email Mr. Matt for an
appointment of the second
interview.
● I take a look at the script
again and I decided to do some
more changes on the script.
● On the day before the actual
interview, I practice my
script. This time, practicing
take less time because most of
the script I have already
memorized it except for the
part that I had fixed.
24/11/20
What did I do?
I went to the interview on the appointed
time. At the interview, I record the video
and give my best effort for the interview.
After everything finish, I listen to the
comments.

Second Interview Reflection
In this second interview, I was very confident on myself
because I had all the script memorized. However, I was a
little worry about a surprise question or a new question that
I have no knowledge about.
The problem that I came across is I was not able to keep eye
contact to the interviewee as much as I wanted. Like I have
previously stated, I am an introvert. I feel uneasy when
talking at someone and look them in their eyes for a long
time. However, in the interview I try as much as possible.
The thing I have learnt in this interview is when you practice
your script well enough, it will extremely boost my confident.
Another thing is that, at first I didn’t think that eye
contact is that important in the interview but after I watch
the video I took, I discovered that looking the people you are
interviewing with in the eye will show truthfulness and
sincereness.

First
Goal
I wish to be able
to get out of my
bed faster in the
morning
Date:
24/10/20 - 31/10/20 Having me acknowledging that I want to
be able to get out of bed faster in the
morning, I research for a method on the
This week work internet. This is the websites I had
visit and study from.
I started this work by reflect on
myself, how I usually act when I wake
up, my wake up time, and my mental
being when I wake up.
From this I have learnt a thing about
myself that no matter how much I sleep
or how late I sleep, I always wake up
feeling fresh on the weekend. This may
be caused by my mental state because I
wake up feeling good that the rest of
the day is going to be a time for me to
do work or get some relaxation
What do I get from
this research?
From the research, I have discover some
tips that will help me to wake up. Some
of the suggested method cannot be use
by me because it’s a different
circumstance so I have to funnel down
the idea and plan on the time for each
method.
The schedule I came
up with
The method I use to measure the time
taken for me to get out of bed is to
get a friend call in and wake me up
(act as an alarm clock) and he proceed
to time me. The time will be stop when
I call him back and I am already
standing up.

little while longer.
Date: Date:

I have to take a sip of bitterness. This is
counterproductive for me.
Date:
21/11/20 - 25/11/20
Method: Place alarm clock far from the bed
Time: 0 mins and 52 seconds on the average
of five days.
Effectiveness: 10/10
Problem: There are not many problem on this
method. I have to get out to turn off the
alarm because the sound is so annoying I
can’t stand staying on my bed. The problem
might be the mental state of waking up in
annoyance of the alarm. I think this is the
best method for me.
First Goal Reflection
For this first goal, I have found a way that solve my problem
which is get out of bed faster in the morning. The reason why
I choose this goal is because I would have more time to do
other things if I don’t waste so much time on my bed.
The problem I faced in achieving this goal is some method did
not suit me at all. Some works on me but it depends on a
situation. Some work at first but does not as the time
proceed.
From this goal, I have develop my researching skill. I have
learnt to funnel a lot of information and use those
information on myself. I have learnt to foster the methods of
others and improvise them as my own. I have develop more
knowledge of sleep and it’s effect to human body.

I begin working in this second goal by debate

opinion is the immigration policy. Biden

Conclusion: Thai’s president in the year

NPKC. On the election after the coup

the citizen furious because it seems like a
power succession. These lead to the event
of “Blak May” which is the conflict between
the citizen who disagree and the

many people died.

Conclusion: Trump start off the vote strong

“swing state” voted for Biden. Trump
supporters were furious because they think
that the mail-in vote is a “illegal vote”.
There are number of protest around America
refuse Biden as a president and fight for
Trump to win. Some of the protestors did
not wear mask during covid time.
Second Goal Reflection
For this second goal, I think I somewhat achieved the goal but
I think I can do better than this. I should be able to manage
my time more to be able to research more news. Overall, from
me who read not a single news to read some of the news is an
improvement.
Some problem I came across are having no time to read, reading
the news but not understanding it, and unfocus during reading.
I was buried by work and it’s hard to find a time to read.
Some of the news uses a technical term and some complicated
language so I have to use online translate.
From this goal, I have learn to try my best of the best to
manage my time to get all the work done on time. I also have
developed my English reading skill. I have learnt many new
vocabulary in Political field. The most important benefit of
this goal is the knowledge of political news that might be
asked in my interview at my goal University in law field.
