Name two goals for the remainder of the year.

My first goal is to fully grasp the meaning of the Periodic Table. I do not want to just memorize it, but I would like to fully comprehend details such as why the elements are there and how they were discovered. It would be cool to obtain a good knowledge about characteristics of elements, not just the ones I research for projects.
Second, I want to have more confidence in chemistry, not just blowing it off as a "hard" class that is acceptable to not do well in. I want to make an effort to visit Ms. Fowler when I do not understand something, and take a test knowing I mastered the material, finishing it saying "I think I made an A."
