Last week of 3rd Quarter

This week went by quickly. I hoped that it would, and it did. I wanted it to end so soon because Friday was our last day of school. Period 4A worked TV. On Monday the periods were even. 6,2,4. I went on TV with Mackenzie. 7-3 had a field trip to Iolani palace. So for period 6, English, I had people from Mrs. Tolentinos period 6 that didn't go to the field trip in my class. In period two, Mrs. Gouveia went on the field trip so I had to go to Mrs. Fujimoto for period two. I did extra credit for math. The next day the periods were odd. Alesia went on TV by herself. The periods were 1, 3, 5. In period one we had to turn in our work. In period three, we asked questions about the Iolani palace field trip. In period 5, we shared our science projects. On Wednesday, the periods were 2, 4, 6. In math, we had a quiz. In English, we watched a movie. On Thursday, we had the track meet. We won overall. We had to go to the last period of the day, period one. In period one, I fell asleep because I was really tired, I was in the sun, and running. Mrs. Kato didn't let anyone bother me. On Friday, I was so glad or was Friday because it was the last day of the week, and third quarter. We had period 4 first. We cleaned A101. I ate a kimchi bowl. In English, we watched a movie again. In advisory, we ate Mcdonalds for completing our 3rd Quarter blogs. In Math, we took notes. When the bell rang for the end of school, I jumped out of my seat and said "toodle-loo". Alesia and Chelsey came to my house after school. We made about three or four sets of smoothies. Well I made it. Alesia kept asking for more. If you asked her "Alesia what do you wanna eat" then she would say "smoothie". They all fell asleep at my house while we were watching vines in my room with the AC on. Their moms eventually came to pick them up that night. 

The highlight of my week was the track meet. I ate about five of the energy shot gummies or whatever it's called. I ran the four hundred and mile. I came in 4th for the four hundred, and 10th for the mile. My time for the four hundred was 1:28. One minute and twenty eight seconds. I think that was pretty good time for me. It usually takes two minutes to go all the way around the track. I felt like I was gonna pass out at the end of my mile. But while I was running my mile, I tried not to walk, I kept pushing myself to keep going. I also tried pushing all of the other people that was running the mile with me, like petriese, jez, terilyn, and so on. I didn't want them to come in the very last. When petriese was walking, I kept telling her to keep going, don't stop. At the end, when I reached the finish line, they said I had a potatoe frown on my face(x. I was really tired, and sad that I came in 10th. I didn't cry though. We shouldn't cry. We won the whole track meet anyways. At least most of us tried.

The lesson learned was to encourage others and yourself to not give up. Like how at the track meet, when it seemed like they wanted to give up because they were walking the mile, I encouraged them to keep going. Atleast petriese came in 12th. I didn't want them to walk because I didn't want us to look like lazy people. Even thought I felt like I was gonna fall, I just kept my legs moving. The whole mile, I wasn't concentrating on the other people that I was running with. I was focusing on myself and my team mates. I made sure that none of then were the last person to cross that finish line.
