n' thats a wrap !

wow. this year has been soo wack. id say this was the most craziest, exciting, depressing, stressful and interesting year EVER. like, not even exaggerating. some things we did this year was summer bridge, summer work days, schedule pick ups, end of the summer field trip, reunion, retreat, intra murals, halloween and  christmas decorations, picnics, turkey trot, recognition nights, spirit week, yearbook, graduation and orientation slides, orientation, awards night, isa, winter fair, graduation pictures, graduation meetings and graduation. some things i did on the side was, going to the philippines and canada, meeting new friends, joining media and street art club, earned a 3.8 - 4.0, confronted fake people and got my. im rlly going to miss some people and im rlly sad to not be able to see them next year but, hopefully the future brings us all together again.

anyways its been one hell of a year that ill never forget.

highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and lowlights that happened this year. my biggest highlight of the year would have to be, finally finding my real friends. this was a highlight for me because, honestly i wouldnt have survived this year without them. literally. if i never met/became close to them, i really dont know where i would be today. so thank you guys. i love yall 3000. my biggest lowlight of the year was, letting people get under my skin. this was a lowlight for me because,  i personally dont think i am a strong person, emotionally. i already have negative thoughts and feelings towards myself and the fact that i let others have that same effect on me, certainly didnt help.

a lesson i will always remember from this year is, to trust in the process. meaning, just roll with whatever life has to throw at you. the reason why i choose this to be my lesson for the year is because, i think i can really remember this. throughout this year, i have really doubted not just myself but, life as well. eventually, ive come to terms with the fact that life isnt perfect but, i shouldnt worry and i can handle whatever it is thats coming to me.

glo #2, community contributor: i showed this glo by, sacrificing my time to this program and school to help out.
glo #3, complex thinker: i showed this glo by, brain storming and problem solving situations and how to get out of them.
glo #4, quality producer: i showed this glo by, faking it till i made it and putting my best foot forward, overall.

my outlook on my future from what i can tell is that, i will be an 8th grader still attending ilima intermediate but, not in leadership anymore. this will be a huge  adjustment to me as, leadership was a big part of my year. both in a good way and a bad way. id say, i still want to be busy in school and wanna make the most outta my years in middle school. therefore im going to try and join as much clubs as i would like and volunteer around the school. i also, see myself hanging with a lot of my friends whenever i have the chance. maybe, my grades will go higher or lower because my classes will seem easier or harder. who knows lol. anyways, im one, nervous yet, two excited for my future.
till we meet again !

alright.

this week was fine. monday, we had breakfast with almost everyone in the class. throughout the entire  week, ive had much free time and just worked on final projects. tuesday, was awards night and i got a few awards plus a medal:) wednesday, we cleaned the cafe. we also watched royal prodigies end of the year performance. it was awesome:) thursday, we got cement blocks and cleaned up more. we also did our 4th quarter blogs. friday, i presented my final monologue. i was super proud:) we also gave out yearbooks!

highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. a highlight for me was, awards night. this was a highlight for me because, it felt nice to get a few awards for something this year:) a lowlight for me was, procrastinating on my projects. this was a lowlight for me because, in order to earn a 4.0 this quarter, i must work harder to keep up with my assignments even, till the very end.

a lesson i can learn from this week could be, finish strong. meaning, end something the way you want to end it. the reason why i choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, i thought it could really connect to how i end this year off. if i finish strong, i can make myself and others proud that i made it. next week, i will finish my leadership journey strong.

4th quarter blog

 the quarters almost up! along with that, the year! yaa yeet. this quarter was pretty challenging. however, if im being honest it went sorta better than i imagined it to be. surprising right? well its honestly the truth. a lot has happened really. some events we had were, orientation, recognition night, graduation meetings, kindness messages and awards night. orientation was my most FAVORITE thing from this quarter. without a doubt. recognition night was hard yet, fun. i wished my grades wouldve been better but, we cant all be winners right? we had games and food this time, plus the graffiti wall, so that was nice. graduation meetings were okay. even though im not graduating(yet) it could still help me out in the future. i think. kindness messages were good. i like seeing the banner full with positivity considering most of the campus has alot of negative vibes. awards night was great. it felt nice to get recognized for something other than grades. some assignments we had were life lessons and grad slides. life lessons was kinda cool. hearing all those stories honestly put me in my feels and made me think about life on a new perspective. grad slides was pretty iffy. i really shouldve worked harder on the slides and gave more time and effort to help out(more details in the next paragraph)some fun things we did was the street art club field trip and the picnic. the street art club field trip was pretty great. it was my first time looking at murals and they were really cool. some were pretty wack, some were really colorful and all thatt. we also, got to go alamoana then, the beach park! it was peaceful and i got to spend time with some important people! the picnic was a m a z i n g
i could tell everyone had a good time and there were alot of laughs shared. id say im ashamed yet, proud of myself this quarter. made some new friends, got some ones back and cut out some toxic people. i managed to overcome some family troubles and bad memories from the past. my grades are starting to improve for the better, which im pretty proud of. one hand, im so ready to finish off this year but, on the other, i still wanna hold on and make the most of my time as a 7th grader!

highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and lowlights that happened this quarter. a highlight for me was, orientation. this was a highlight for me because, ever since my very first orientation as a 6th grader, ive always wanted to be apart of it. it might sound wack but, its the truth. so, to take part in it meant so much to me and i honestly had so much fun. not to mention, i was a choreographer:) a lowlight for me was, grad slides. this was a lowlight for me because, i made the mistake of not putting as much effort as everyone else. therefore, myself and the whole class lost a lot because of that. for example, ALL privileges, my vest, my yellows etc.

a lesson i can learn from this quarter could be, put effort and time into whatever is you do in life. meaning, try your hardest and sacrifice time for anything. the reason why i choose this to be my lesson for the quarter is because, i thought it really connected to what went on this quarter. if i had put more effort and time into i wouldnt have run into certain problems. in the future, i will put in effort and time to whatever it is i must do.

wack.

this week was super wack. monday, i finished my diva project. i also edited a few pics from banquet. smtn came up after school, which turned out to be not so great. tuesday, some ppl came frm campbell to sign in some 8th graders for future clubs. it ws okay. however after school didn't go so well  since me and my friends decided to make the dumb decision of disrupting people after school. wednesday, we had the table meeting. didnt turn out so well, because me and a few friends made ANOTHER dumb decision of not working on slides as much. which left us, being kicked out of working on slides. therefore, we needed to come up with a solution,  which we did and sorta made the situation a little bit better.  thursday, i got my vest and yellows taken away. it was hard to let go. i also needed to finish getting 15 pictures into my drive, edited and in the slides. friday, i finished doing that, which was thankfully, a good thing.

highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and low lights that happened this week.  one highlight for me was, getting into song writing.  this was a highlight for me because, it means i discovered a new passion that i am excited to continue. one lowlight for me was,  getting things taken away from myself and others.  this was a lowlight for me because, i not only got important items taken away from me but, also i took away others too because of my stupid actions.

a lesson i can learn from this week could be, what you do, matters. meaning, know what you are doing and whos watching. the reason why i chose this to be my lesson for the week is because, i thought i really connected to what went on. if i had known what my actions can really do i wouldn't have been in the situation I was for this week. in the future, i will know whatever it is i do, matters.

bro...

this week was a pretty sucky one but, its whatever! my period had t.v. monday, there was a banquet meeting and us 7th graders were in the front of the cafe directing 8th graders. i took pictures  with my "squad" :) and for graduation. i also filmed a bunch of monologues. tuesday, we rolled up cables but, had to fix them the next day. i worked on my science project with my group but, it became super awkward when my ex bestfriend joined our group:(( wednesday, i went on tv. i was up super late working on a project that almost got thrown away the next day. how stupid of me:( we also started building bridges for teachers. thursday, i made the dumbest mistake ever right before tv, ifykyk and once again, i apologize for that  inconvenience. i also realized, i need to start working on slides more and drop everything just for that. oh, my mom also left for vegas this week. friday, i went ms. doles for advisory with jasmine and ileana. i also went to the hospital to visit a baby.


highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. one highlight for me was, taking group pictures. this was a highlight for me because, i finally got a picture  with my squad:) one lowlight for me was, not showing much effort for graduation slides. this was a lowlight for me because, we all need to do our part for slides.


a lesson i can learn from this week could be, to sacrifice time. meaning, give away personal time to get important things done. the reason why i choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, i thought it really connected to what went on this week. if i had sacrificed time, i couldve helped more with grad slides. in the future, i will sacrifice time.

uhm, k....

this week was pretty wackk but, it sorta ended up being alright ig. monday, we started life lessons. we also had our short stories, global goals poster and project for science. tuesday, i had sba and mORE monologues for english. plus a bunch of bs for ss. wednesday, we had more life lessons. i also got my  "phone" back, ifykyk. thursday, not much happened. friday, we had the street art field trip, which was AMAZING. i also dropped an old friend, which was good, ifykyk lol.

highlights and lowlights. there were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. one highlight for me this week was, the street art club field trip. this was a highlight for me because, it was a fun trip and i got to spend it with my friends. one lowlight for me was, having drama. this was a lowlight for me because, even tho i love it, it still stresses me out.

a lesson i can learn from this week is, know where the fakes r @. meaning, cut toxic ppl outta your life. the reason why i choose this to be my lesson for this week is because, i thought it really connected to what went on this week. if i had known where the fakes were @ originally, i could've cut them ALL out sooner. in the future, ill know where the fakes r @.

3-always remember those who serve

moral: dont forget how u got, what u got. when we are awarded certain things, we often forget HOW we have them. take time to show  gratitude and appreciation to those who give by, giving back as well. sometimes even the littlest tokens of appreciation can mean alot to somebody:)

why: we were given this because, we should always take time to fully understand why we have what we have. in life we are given many blessings. sometimes its easy to forget why and how we have them. anyways, it is good to give back to those who give back as well. a simple thank u or a few loose change can really brighten someones day. you never rlly know.

connection: throughout my life, i have gotten many amazing things such as, family(blood/non-blood) and a roof over my head. i often forget how lucky i am to have all these great things. therefore, i end up not showing my appreciation. however, when im smart and dont forget, i take time to give back to those who may/may not give to me just because.

4-the obstacle in our path

moral: its always best to solve problems, rather than ignoring them. it doesnt matter whos problem it is. any type of problem could always have affects on others. be cautious and aware of what is happening and think. there is always ways to help out, you just have to take the time to actually do it!

why: we were given this because, we should always be problem solvers. there is no doubt we see issues almost everyday in our lives. we must admit, it is difficult to get past them. rather than moving on and avoiding them, we should pause for a moment  and brainstorm ways to solve the issue so that it doesnt take a deeper turn for the worst.

connection: throughout my life, i ALWAYS have obstacles stopping me. if im being honest, the first thing i do, is try to hope that things will sort themselves out and try not to pay any attention to it. since that NEVER works, i end up taking a long period of time to figure out how i can move past from it. it takes me many tries but, eventually i find a way to deal with it and end up feeling really proud in the end.

5-giving when it counts

moral: being selfless is always the better answer. putting others needs before your own, can really help someone out. even if it affects yourself, reflect about how much better it could be for someone else if you did a certain thing.

why: we were given this because, we have many opportunities to make someones life better. whether or not you know so, your sacrificing your needs for somebody else. imagine how much that can rlly effect someone by, not just from what u did but, why you did it.

connection. throughout my life, i have always tried to be the most selfless person i could ever be no matter what. whether its giving away my own money or my clothing, as long as that person can benefit and is happy, thats all that rlly matters to me.

Lesson Responses

Story 2- Cleaning Lady

Moral: Everyone is equal and matters.

Why: We were given this because, we walk past each other everyday and have different relationships when we really shouldn't and should learn to appreciate one another.
Connection: This connects to me because I walk past people everyday who I do know the names of but, don't make the effort to get to know them when, I really should be because, everyone is equal and matters.
Story 3- Pickup in the Rain
Moral: Always be kind to whoever and wherever because you never know how much they could really need it.
Why: We were given this because we take for granted the effort of being kind to one another.
Connection: This connects to me because, I try to be kind to whoever I meet because I understand how much a simple act of kindness can really mean to someone.

Whoop:/

Hey guys! It's Lindsey, here with another weekly blog. This week was pretty ehh. My period was working Monday, it was electives night and I really wanted to go but, I wasn't feeling up for it. We watched monologues the whole week and I filmed mines and turned it in on friday. Mines was about the timer ileana got milk spilled all over her hehe. We had notebook checks which sucked because, I was missing alot of stuff but, made it all up. Tuesday, we counted the medals.
Wednesday, was progress reports and I did OKAY. We had sba and my head felt TERRIBLE. Thursday, we had a street art club meeting. It was also, my bestfriends 13th birthday:))Whoop, whoop! I also edited some pictures for graduation slides.Friday, was the ice palace field trip but, I didn't go:((( We just played video games and watched movies so, that was fun. I also got to see the little mermaid play:)) I started DYING when I saw some of the characters. Especially, when they used an umbrella as their props, even though it's supposed to be "underwater". lololol. 


Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was, seeing the little mermaid play. This was a highlights for me because, it was really funny and a nice way to end my week. One lowlight for me was, losing my phone. This was a lowlight for me because, I lost alot of important things on my phone and I don't know when I can get them back.

A lesson I can from this week is, to not ignore your problems. Meaning, don't think they'll just go away, face them. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it  really connected to what went on this week. If I had not ignored my problem with some drama, it might've been solved. In the future, I will not ignore my problems.

Sis, Woah...

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog! This week was such a roller coaster. Monday, I finished my math quiz, started a poster in ss and filmed an intro monologue for english. Tuesday, I worked on my science project and we worked on making signs for recognition night for the games! Me and a few friends played “Who’s the Most?” or “Who’s Most Likely Too?” and that was really fun. Wednesday, we had the 7-3 march. Lemme js say, it was one of the most embarrassing thing I’ve EVER done at this school. One, my poster SUCKED. My freaking partner BARLEY did ANYTHING and I had to rely on myself to get it all done in such a short time. Two, EVERYONE was looking at us either laughing, video taping or making faces. I hated it so much. I also started this thing where I call boys thicc’ lmao. We also had recognition night. I worked the graffiti wall for the whole time. I worked with chanel for the most time. I’d say it was the best recognition night we’ve ever had! Thursday, we had the picnic and I brought pizza. It was sooo much fun! Friday, we had no school.

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was, the picnic. This was a highlight for me because, I could tell everyone had fun and I felt it was a great way to end the week. One lowlight for me was, the 7-3 march. This was a lowlight for me because, like I’ve mentioned before it was so shameful walking around the school with my poster.

A lesson I can learn from is, fake it till you make it. Meaning, stay strong and know that it’ll all be worth it in the end. The reason why I chose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really connected to what went on with this week. If I had faked it till I made it, I wouldn’t have been struggling while I was working. In the future, I will learn to fake it till I make it.

Unbelievable.

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog. This week was an interesting and exciting one. Monday, we had our final dress rehearsal for orientation. I was feeling lowkey stressed, because I didn’t have all my outfits ready but, yk I managed. For this whole week, in diva and science we did the same thing which were, taking notes n’ our projects. Turns out, I’m doing good in science and somehow not so great in diva, love thatt:((I also found out my ar, so I started reading. Tuesday, was orientation! Like, I’ve mentioned in previous blogs, yall already know how it went:) I had sba n’ had this project for ss this whole week. Wednesday, we cleaned up the cafe. I also completely 90% of my ar and would’ve finished it all if, I didn’t get the last question wrong:/Thursday, was orientation for parents and more 6th graders(mentioned in previous blogs). I took a math test, which, I still didn’t finish or study for! However, afterschool was really fun. Me, jasmine, ileana and harryzen hung out. Karma hit ileana REAL HARD, when she elbowed me on accident, ifykyk. We talked with the female security guard and turns out she’s super nice! Friday, we cleaned up the cafe, a101 and a102. Mainly, putting things away. I finished sba(finally) and got an OKAY score ig.

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlight that happened this week. One highlight for me was, having orientation. This was a highlight for me because, after all the preparations we made, it finally came! One lowlight for me was, losing my bike. This was a lowlight for me because, that was one of the only ways I could get to school or go anywhere and now that it’s gone who knows where, I honestly dk what to do.

A lesson I can learn from this week is, keep track of your things. Meaning, know where you put your belongings and don’t lose them. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really connected to what went on. If I had kept track of my things, I wouldn’t have lost my planner, bike and almost my dog and lanyard. In the future, I will learn to keep track of my things.

ORIENTATION 2K19

Hey guys! It's Lindsey, here with my 2nd orientation blog. Orientation day 2, went better than the first, in my opinion. The crowd was much more hyped up and seemed more interested. I feel like I did improve with the tour, which was a good thing. Orientation day 3, was interesting. I stayed the entire time and didn’t go hone. As you all know, this was for families. Now, this was sorta different. We did have a lesser crowd than the second but, it was fine. I saw some old friends and helped pass out forms at the entrance. Oh! We also didn’t have to worry about tour, which was kinda sad butc kinda good. And that last dance we all together? Memorable. Anyways, overall I’m just in shock. As a matter of fact, orientation was where it all started for me. If I hadn’t came to that last orientation as a clueless 6th grader, I wouldn’t be here, writing this right now. After months of preparation and practicing, it’s hard to believe it’s over. Like, I’ve mentioned in my previous blog, speaking and slides went smooth in my opinion. I mean, everyone sounded really clear and everyone completed the slides. The tours went OKAY. There were a few mistakes but, I think the kids got the overall message. Fashion show, was just super fun. At first, myself and others needed more energy but, we pulled through. Cleaning and setting up had a fee crashes, ifykyk. To wrap things up, these three events were just unforgettable and I really loved being apart of it:)

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights throughout these days. One highlight for me was, the fashion show! This was a highlight for me because, I had a great time dancing with everyone and being a choreographer. One lowlight for me was, not changing quickly enough. This was a lowlight for me because, we had very limited time to spend changing and it delayed the whole show.

A lesson I can learn from this experience is, don’t waste time. Meaning, use time wisely and think about who’s time your actually using. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really connected with what went on. If I had not wasted time, the show could’ve ran quicker and the 6th graders wouldn’t have been waiting for a while. In the future, I won’t waste time.

GLO’S:
GLO #1, Self Directed Learner; I showed this glo by, being responsible for my own things and reviewing the tour.
GLO #2, Community Contributor; I showed this glo by, helping others when we were setting up and cleaning up the stage, instead of standing around most of the time.
GLO #3, Complex Thinker; I showed this glo by, knowing what to do before, during and after the show.
GLO #4, Quality Producer; I showed this glo by, giving my best knowledge and performance I could’ve to orientation.
GLO #5, Effective Communicator; I showed this glo by, talking to others when they had questions on certain aspects of the show, like the tour or what we needed to wear for what.
GLO #6, Effective and Ethical User of Technology; I showed this glo by, completing my slides and fixing mistakes.

Orientation, Day 1!

Hey guys! It's Lindsey, here with my 1st orientation blog. Today wasn't really the best day but, not the worst. Meaning, I thought today would've been worse but, it wasn't. We started off the day by setting up and it was lowkey stressful because some people(including me) forgot some things in the room. We practiced one last time and before you know it, we were all racing outside to greet pohakea and ewa elementary. I saw alot of familiar faces and got alot of hi's. We started off with mikka welcoming and doing introductions. Then, tristiny with programs, then raquel with uplink, then chanel with isa, then shanel with clubs etc. yk js like how we all rehearsed. As they were speaking the rest of us got changed into our tour clothes. Once we had the tour, it was sorta iffy. Since the cafe wasn’t full we all shared tables. Me and mikka had a group from pohakea and I honestly think I did mediocre. I forgot to mention a few things and I didn’t keep track of the 6th graders in the back. However, I think my volume really improved, which is pretty good ig. Once we got back from tours, we all immediately changed into our fashion show clothes. Before fashion show, was bell schedule and I was 5! We then, had fashion show. I need to work on my energy but, I honestly had fun time up on stage. Once we wrapped things up with that,  mjay talked about communications, ahled talked about fee payment and mikka wrapped things up. Mr. Ing also came up on stage to address a few more thing. As we finished, we all raced to door again to say thank you for coming n’ all that. We cleaned up everything and I helped by rolling, carrying and putting away a few cords. Oh, I also lost my I.D. with my keys and I was looking ALL day for them but, luckily I found them hehe.

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights for today. One highlight today was, fashion show. This was a highlight for me because, I found it the most exciting part of orientation since, we got to dance to such a nice theme and choreography taught by myself, ahled, jasmine and amber. One lowlight for me was, tour. This was a lowlight for me because, like I’ve mentioned before I thought I could’ve done better with remembering little things and being more responsible with the 6th graders.

A lesson I can learn for today is, be more SELFLESS. Meaning, don’t be selfish and have empathy. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really matched with what went on today. If I had been more selfless, the 6th graders would’ve had a better tour and understanding of the school at the moment. In the future, I will learn to be more selfless.

Overall, I would say our 1st orientation went alright! Meaning, we all did okay however, we all need to fix little mistakes. Things such as noise volume in the dressing room, changing quicker, etc. I could tell the 6th graders didn’t seem as interested as I thought they would be but, yk it’s whatever. I’m just gonna say, watching and performing are two VERY DIFFERENT things. Honestly, I much rather enjoyed performing instead of watching because, I get to be apart of helping out students! Anyways, I’m super excited and frankly a little scared for next orientation but until then, SEE YA SOON:))

Yikes!

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog. Honestly, this week was not as bad as I would thought it would be. Monday, was the first official day non-officers were working, since officers were passing out class day, banquet and graduation forms! I’m working with bethany for the whole week and this day we had T.V. and it was lowkey stressful. I was getting super worried that things wouldn’t be ready on time but, we managed and did pretty good. Oh, we also had orientation practice this whole week and considering it’s NEXT WEEK AHHH! Honestly, I’m really excited n’ yeahh. We also got report cards, yikes.Tuesday, was a really horrible day in general(ifykyk) We were also working music that day.We also had a quiz on the 10 stop tour but, we all didn’t do so good but, I found out later we had another on Thursday. I ended my day at travel media. Wednesday, was honestly a fun day. Everyone was spamming my phone in both ss n’ math. I also found out, my teacher has BAD smelling fingers, (ifykyk) LOL. After I finished intro, me and ileana practiced and studied for the 10 stop tour around the school. We also had I.D’s. Thursday, we had the 10 stop tour quiz(again). I honestly thought I did bad for one stop but, I think I did okay on the rest. We also worked T.V. I also planned out all my outfits for orientation. Friday, we had dress rehearsal afterschool. We also worked music. During advisory, non-officers had a meeting about jobs talking about how, we need to do improve which, was kinda true:(

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was, math. This was a highlight for me because, despite everything going on, my group in math made me laugh n’ smile throughout everything:)One lowlight for me was, orientation practices. This was a lowlight for me because, I’ve had a few slip ups here n’ there with stuff like timing and directions and that cannot happen during the actual orientation.

A lesson I’ve learned this week was, to be committed. Meaning, do whatever you can to fulfill whatever it is you have to do. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really matched with what went on. If I had been more committed, I could’ve found a way to get to school more early to start jobs. In the future, I will be more committed.

What a Week....

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog! This week wasn’t a good one. My period worked with I.D’s at first. Monday,  I wasn’t at school since, I was flying back home from the philippines. Tuesday, there wasn’t any school so, I spent the day unpacking and giving away gifts. Wednesday, was MY first day back to school. Not much really happened, I worked in my notebook and did some research in some clases. We also made some more props for orientation, I don’t realy know what to call it but, it was the thing with the circle and dash between it. The x-acto knife was reallyyt hard to use though, ngl. I also got to give my other friends gifts from the philippines! I mainly bought food and cool souvenirs for them. The mik-mik was the especially popular one, lol! Thursday, we watched the rest of the outsiders and let me just say, everyone girl in that period was arguing over who was the cutest boy in the film, I personally thought it was dally haha. We had graduation meeting and I was a greeter again and It felt really quick! Me, jasmine, ileana and harryzen hung out most of the time and found a new spot to hang it! Friday, was the first day all of the officers stopped working, so that they could pass out forms for class day, graduation and banquet to the 7th and 8th graders. I’m currently working with bethany and we worked I.D’s. I even got to give another tour! However, we came across a problem. Some slide makers had to redo their slides, including myself because they weren’t ready. I luckily finished and fixed them, before 4:00 along with others, so that was good.

Highlights and lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights for this week. One highlight for me was, bringing gifts for friends. This was a highlight for me because, I got to make them happy and   be selfless. One lowlight for me was, having to redo my orientation slides. This was a lowlight for me because, I was being stupid and selfish by not fully completing a simple task that should have been ready the first time, especially if it wasn’t for me.

A lesson I learned this week was to, have quality in your work and be considerate. Meaning, be a quality producer (GLO #4) and understand others point of view, The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really matched with what went on this week. If I had put quality into the orientation slides and thought about the 6th graders and parents opinion, I wouldn’t have had to redo them.

What Comes Next...

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, with another weekly blog! This week honestly went by pretty slow. My period was working T.V. Monday, I came to school, only to be sent home, since I got sick:/ Tuesday, was the first day of graduation picture taking. I worked during 6th period and I feel like I worked slow for some time but, eventually got quicker. I had media that day and hung out with jasmine and ileana and we went on monkey. Wednesday, we had sba makeups and I stayed for 3rd and 5th period. We also had graduation picture taking again and this time we worked in our periods. Thursday, we practiced for orientation on the cafe stage.I finished sba(finally) and we had lots of free time. I even passed my quiz for social studies! Friday, we practiced for orientation on the stage again and mr.ing showed us the stops for the tour. Me and my friends in science was on monkey again and saw MANY interesting people, ifykyk. Today, I am currently on the way to the the Philippines for spring break and am really excited!

Highlights and lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was, finishing sba. This was a highlight for me because, even though it was a requirement, I still feel like I did good and am proud. One lowlight for me was, having to redo my orientation slides alot. This was a lowlight for me because, those slides are important and to mess those up, could mean messing up the whole thing.

A lesson I could learn from this week would be, work quicker. This means to not be slow so you don’t waste time. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really connected to what went on. If I had worked quicker during picture taking, things would’ve been much faster. In the future, I will learn to work quicker.

2018-2019 3RD QUARTER BLOG!

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another quarterly blog! 3rd Quarter is almost up! This quarter has been an INTERESTING one! Interesting changes, interesting activities, etc. Main events and assignments we had were graduation meeting, spirit week, recognition night, ISA, graduation pictures, yearbook and orientation slides. Graduation meeting went okay, I was a greeter for the second time:) Spirit week was GREAT! Maybe a few minor issues but, overall it was good and I loved it.! With all the dress outs and activities we had, It was somewhat COMPETITIVE but, overall exciting. My personal favorite part of that week was cheer off:) Recognition night went good. We had this new thing called the graffiti wall and it was pretty cool. ISA went pretty slow honestly. Besides playing around for a little bit, I think it went smoothly considering everyone had fun. Graduation pictures went good. I think I needed to work on being faster but, I understood the concept. Yearbook was a roller coaster. I was so disappointed in myself when I couldn’t finish my page(team pictures) in time but, eventually got it done. Orientation slides was also a roller coaster! I had communication and  I needed to redo a few times but, got it done. Speaking of orientation slides, we started orientation practice! I’d say I’m reallyyyyy excited for this and can’t wait till the real ones. Oh! Also, absolutely NO D’S OR F’S this whole quarter! Yessuh! Now, just trying to earn my LAST ar star.... I joined the travel media club and signed up for street art, which I’m kinda excited for! New year too! We also have frances and bethany with us now and I’m pretty glad. One of my favorite memories this quarter was definitely, spirit week! One of my least favorite memories was definitely losing people here and there but, I’m used to it. Anyways, I’m absolutely scared but intrigued to what quarter 4 has in store:)

Highlights and lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this quarter. One highlight for me was, having good grades for the whole quarter! This was a highlight for me because, it tells me I worked hard and I got things done! One lowlight for me was, not completing the yearbook on time. This was a lowlight for me because, the yearbook was one of our most IMPORTANT assignments and to not get it done, is just a bad thing.

A lesson I can learn from this quarter would be, having good priorities. This means to know what’s really important for yourself and to make sure you fulfil it.The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for thenweek is because, I feel like it really connected to what happened this quarter. If I had , had good priorities, things would’ve been more efficien. In the future, I will learn to have good priorities.

My outlook for next quarter would have to be, finishing strong. Meaning, since I am ending my leadership journey by the end of this school year, I want to end it off on a positive note. I want to be able to say I helped make the school a better place. No more problems with jobs, no more wasting time, no more procrastinating and no more not being productive. 4th quarter is gonna be MY quarter and I am going to be the best version of myself I can be!

Work, Work, Work!

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog. This week was a rough one. My period worked music. Monday, I had an sba prep for english and it was a relay race but, my team LOST so badly. Tuesday, I had diva presentations and I feel like my group did really well. We also, started the banners for orientation but, came up to a problem, which didn’t have good consequences.
 Wednesday, was the first day for sba and I was really tired. Me and alexis also stayed afterschool to work on the new banners and they came out really nice. Others joined in and we ended up finishing them on friday and I think they look great, so thanks to everyone who helped out! Thursday, was track meet and I stayed with angel and bethany in mrs.stocks and it was really fun!  Even during period 1!  Friday, I stayed late to finish my orientation slides and suprisingly got them done. Oh, and in math my last name turned into a meme, #lovethat:) Today, I stayed home and cleaned my room.

Highlights and lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was finishing the slides for orientation and banners. This was a highlight for me because with all testing and assignments happening, myself and others  still managed to get slides and banners done in the end. One lowlight for me this week was, getting kicked out of orientation. This was a lowlight for me because, orientation is an important event and to miss out on it isn’t a good thing.

A lesson I’m learning is to not waste time. This means to manage time wisely. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it connected to what happened this week. If I had not wasted time, I could’ve helped and done my part to try to complete the banner the first time. In the future, I will learn to not waste time.

Back to Normal, Sort of....

Hey guys! It’s Lindsey, here with another weekly blog. This week wasn’t the best but, not the worst. My period had ID’s. Monday, we had yearbook yerification. I also gave my second tour:) Were getting alot of new students coming to 7-3 lol. Tuesday, we had the last yearbook yerification. I stayed afterschool for a little while with jasmine and ileana to basically work on projects and play ping pong. istg ii feel like im getting better lol. I also had a test for each period , which highkey irritated me. I also, hung out with some neighbors and had an okay time. Wednesday, we had orientation practice during lunch for period one. I think I’m getting a hang of the other dances but, definitely need a bit more practice. We also had grade check to work for ISA on friday and luckily I passed. I also had more tests but, this time only for two periods. Thursday, I got a form for street art. Friday, we had ISA for girls vb but,  we mainly just sat down for the most part. Unfortunately, I was late to help set up but, got to help with clean up. I had media afterschool and hung out with jasmine and harryzen, even though we didn’t even get cameras lol.

Highlights and Lowlights. There were many highlights and lowlights that happened this week. One highlight for me was, finishing ar for this quarter. This was a highlight for me because, it means I don’t have to worry about AR for the rest of the quarter. One lowlight for me was, marking the ground during ISA. This was lowlight for me because, it meant I was apart of vandalism which isn’t a good thing.

A lesson I’m learning from this week is, not let emotions take over. To me, this means hide your feelings about certain things, don’t ruin it for other people, and be selfless, even if it means feeling hurt yourself. The reason why I choose this to be my lesson for the week is because, I thought it really matched with what went on this week. If I had not let my emotions take over,  others wouldn’t have been mad or hurt. In the future, I will not let emotions take over.
