Last week of 2nd quarter!

Wow this week has finally came & ended. This week was full of movies, and laziness. Since it was the last week, we barely did things in each of my classes. We watched movies, ate candy canes, etc. It was a relaxing kinda week. On Monday, the periods were, 4, 6, 2, 3. In period four, we watched the giver. Watched, not read. Yeah we actually finnally watched the movie. Woah I was about to type "read" the movie LOL. I just wanna finish this blog so I can continue my winter break already omg. In period six, we watched videos and stuff. In period two, idk what we did. I think we just "studied". Oh yea, we did, we made our study guides if we wanted to. In period tree, we used our chrome books. And we idk what we did with our chrome books. Oh we made a presentation, bibliography or whatever. On Tuesday, periods were 5, 1, 3, 2. In periodo five, we did anykine. Lol cause I don't remember what we did. In period one, we finished our test. Well not finish, turned in. In period three, my group didn't get to share the presentation. So YAAAAY for us. We didn't actually finish it. So yaaa. In period two, we watched the blind side. Was a pretty good movie. Afterschool, we went to the airport because my brother was leaving for Texas. He has basic training and school for the military. He's joining the national guard. My mom was crying and I said "why you crying, I'm still here" then my sister said "that's exactly why she's crying" well then -,- that was harsh LOL. On Wednesday, the periods were 6, 2, 4. In period six, we took a test. Wasn't really a test, considering we could use our notes and he let us talk. Wth Mr. Chong. In period two, we took our quarter two test. Yeeeeyaaaa, I think I did pretty good. Wth that was a weird word. Yeee YAAA LOL. We had secret Santa that day! Jah was my secret Santa, she actually got my Lokai bracelet TYSM again JAH JAH love yaaaa. In period four, we finished watching the giver. Me & MAEV were just grinding the snacks we had. We had chips, li hing watermelon slices, brownies, and cookies. We made such a mess LOL. Afterschool, I had dance, I felt like I was gonna pass out in the second class. I didn't bring water. Lesson learned, bring water or somethin. On Thursday, the periods were 1, 3, 5. In period one I could tell I was going to get a migraine. So while everyone was taking notes, I was trying to sleep it off. Trying to get rid of the migraine. But it wouldn't go away. So I went to the health room during recess. And I went home bc I was puking. I didn't go dance that day because my head still kinda hurted. But when I got home I slept it off. On Friday, it was winter fair. Each class was 53 minutes each. The periods were 2, 4, 6, 1. In period two, we finished watching the blind side. In period four, we were just eating and jamming to music because Mr. Winbush was our sub. In period six, we finished our tests. Winter fair was alright. During my breaks, I would go walk around with my friends, and once I went to blr & played ping pong with maevelyn. We wernt even using the table LOL. In period one, we went to go take the practice SBAC test. It was Mrs. Gouveias birthday. At the end of class, she gave us lihing sourbelts. 

Highlight of the week was Friday. Because of winter fair. I didn't spend a penny at winter fair. Momi gave me her leftovers. She gave me her Jamba Juice, and her adobo. The adobo was more like Kalua. Didn't taste like adobo. But it was alright. I took pictures with people. And by people I mean one person, and by one person I mean chris LOL. He asked for a pic loooooong time ago. Finally got to take it on Friday yeee. Aha, playing ping pong in BLR was fun too!. We was just hitting em hard, and didn't use the table. We were just making it bounce off of the floor. Friday was really fun. Won't forget it.

Lesson learned was to be patient with things. "Patience is key" - me. I think. Well I think I made that up. LOL. But patience is really important. We were patient to get our things in. We were patient to take the picture, and it turned out okay. I was patient for my jacket to come in. And I made it through the quarter with my GPA rising back up to 3.8. So I was patient for the quarter to end. Okay bye goodnight, see you guys on the 26th. FINNA spend some couple bills. Haha I sounded lame. K bye.

Halftime!

OMG, It said "retry publish" haaawh, I thought It was published this whole time!

This quarter was great!. I've had ups and downs, smiles, laughters, even more. This quarter was kinda hectic. Lots of things happening. We got our new group member Taven during this quarter. Made up with people. Wow this quarter was amazing. Things happened that changed my life in the littlest ways. I went back to dance, became friends with peTriese and Jahlyssa again. Kinda feels good to have them back as friends. Everything is normal now. I don't have to watch what I do. We had a secret Santa activity recently. We're about to have winter fair. We went bowling, we had ISA, we also went to meetings for LDSC. This quarter was great I guess. Lost friends, gained friends. But that's alright. "Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver, and the others gold". My gold friends would have to be my girlsss. Keaho, Ashlyn, Chelsey, and Maevelyn. But I prefer to call them, Keahoeee, Asslyn, Chelsexy, and Mama Maev. #KWAxRNFL yee. Went back to dance. So basically lots of things happened this quarter. My grades have sunken, and risen. Risen at the last minute LOL. Yeah, I tried very hard to maintain my grades at a 3.5 or higher. There was a point hat i didn't care about my grades. The when I realized I didn't want to finish the quarter without a 3.8, I really stepped up my game and got my grades up to a 3.8. 

People have came and left my life. I guess that's alright. Like I've mentioned earlier. I was also an inspiration to some of my friends, about relationships. One of them called it "Billion Dollar Words" hahaha. Didn't think it were that special. Aha, I've helped people with their relationships as well, even though I've never been in a "real" relationship. Okay let's go back to talking about leadership. 

Leadership has gotten a lot better once I became friends with peteiese and Jahlyssa again. They were my best friends, the thought of me losing them before was really devastating to be honest. But when I got them back, felt like nothing has ever happened that could've changed my life. Like my life went back to normal. 

This was the 2nd out of the 4 quarters that I've finished. 2nd quarter is, over. 

Experience of Secret Santa

This year of secret santa, I was very very happy of what I got! Thank you so much Jahylssa :)))). I got the Lokai bracelet that I wanted. Since she read my secret santa blog, she noticed that I said I didn't really want a starbucks card. So she got the Lokai bracelet that I mentioned. As everyone gave their gifts to the person they had to buy for, I gave my gift to Kaylyn. Yeah, I was her secret santa. She asked for pants, so I bought her pants. It was hollister. It was on sale for 18.99. The total came out to 19.89 because of tax. So I included two pennies in her gift box. When it came to my secret santa, it was a big box. I was confused because I didn't ask for anything big. But it was just a small box inside a big box! LOL, clever jah clever. Since Taven wasn't there, someone was most likely not to get a gift. When the list narrowed down to Petriese and Hope without a gift yet. That meant Tiana had to give her gift to her person. She made petriese think she was her secret santa. But Tiana was really Hope's secret santa. So that meant Taven had petriese. HAHAHAHA IT WAS SO FUNNY OMG. Must suck to be petriese!. Sorryyyy giiirl. I don't know where taven really is. But the food was good. I ate crispy 'gauge' and pizza, and a musubi. The next day, petriese didn't come to school, she even said she wasn't on twitter. Then I replied and said "What if taven comes to school?". Then he did come to school! HAHAHA. I took a picture of him at his desk and sent it to petriese. Also, I think townsville might be in danger. Because two of the powerpuff girls weren't there. Only one, which was jayde.

Okay highlights. Highlights would be that I got a lokai bracelet!!!!. Still, thank you so much jahlyssa. Best secret santa gift evvaaaaaa. So glad I didn't get a giftcard as I did last year. Another highlight would be the good food. Another highlight is that we shared lots of laughs that day, in terms of petriese being the one not getting a gift LOL. But thats also a lowlight, the fact that someone didnt get a gift while everyone else got a gift. Thats unfair to be honest. I would've been really mad if that happened to me. Like why participate if you're not even going to be ther???????????.

Lesson learned, the lesson that i learned from this activity was to make sure you're there. We all knew when the secret santa activity was going to occur. So we should have showed up if we were participating. Even the people that weren't participating showed up!. So yeah, lesson learned was to always write down important things in your planner when told. Your planner could be your life saver. Tells you whats coming up. Lets you be prepared for upcoming events.

#LiveLokai :)

Me wearin it bc I love it :)))^

Talent Strips

So we had a project to do. It was called Talent Strips. Not to long ago, were were given three strips of colored paper. We had to write a talent on each of our three strips, explain it, explain how it can help the leadership class, and how you got that talent. My three talents were Delaying gratification, confidence, and creativity. We then had to do a powerpoint and a video to go along with it. We had to explain the talents again, and include a video of one the talent that we didn't get to share with the class. We had to demonstrate the talent as well. I demonstrated Delaying Gratification. Deriecka, Jayde, and Taven, were in my little video. It was just of Taven scolding Jayde and deriecka for not standing up like Taven told us to. And I was standing up. It was fun doing this activity. We learned some talents that we thought didnt even exist. I honestly thought it was about the talents like dancing, or singing, all those basic talents. But nooo, turns out it was talents like how we can do our work.

Highlights of this project would have the be when we made our videos and shared our projects. Not so much about making the talent strips. Coming up with talents were kinda difficult to do, lowlight aayyy. Well back to my highlights, I liked sharing our talents. With one of my talents, which was confidence, I had to be confident like what I wrote on my talent strip. And the video was fun. I got to help others with their demonstration as well. So that's what I liked about the video. 

Lesson learned was that you have many talents, you just don't realize them until someone points them out. I didn't realize that delaying gratification was one of my talents until I actually delayed gratification in 7th grade. So yeaaa, you don't realize your talents until you actually do it, or someone points it out for you.

That's shizz is Bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S

This week, we wore our new yellow collards a lot. On Tuesday, because of flu shot clinic, Wednesday because of sign waving in the morning, and Friday because of bowling. On Monday, the periods were 5, 1, 3, 6. In period five, we worked on our projects. We worked TV, lunch music, and Afterschool sales that week. In period one, we studied for a test. That we were going to start on on Wednesday. That's all we did that class, just study. In period three, Mr. Clark came and he did another presentation. In period six, we worked on our project. On Tuesday, the periods were 6, 2, 4, 5. In period six, we watched videos and took notes. In period two, we did the telephone cup activity. We got to test the cups after we made them. In period four, we finished reading the giver, and we worked on our essay draft. In period five, we worked on our projects. On Wednesday, the periods were 1, 3, 5. In period one, we did our test. I didn't finish. I fell asleep for like 10 minutes because I was tired. In period three, we worked with our chrome books. It was just a catch up day, so we didn't do much. Just did work from AVID or other classes. In period five, we worked on our projects again. Afterschool, I had dance. I had two classes, an hour each. 4:30-6:30. That day, I take street/hip hop. On Thursday, the periods were 2, 4, 6. In period 2, we did this activity where we made a thingy that you can see what the light is made up of. I forgot that it's called, but it's really cool. We got to make it out of paper, cd, and tape. In period four, we finished our essay drafts. In period six, we were just fooling around. We didn't do much, we weren't productive. Afterschool I had jazz/ballet. Me & Keya were in pain because we couldn't do the spiltS LOL. Jaena came up to me and hugged me in the beginning of class, and some random girl hugged me too. I didn't even know who that girl was she just hugged me LOL. On Friday, we went bowling. I placed first place for the average 8th grade girls score in the first round. I was pretty surprised. I actually hit the white thingys! LOL jk, I know what it's called. Deriecka cried because she got a strike omg.  I watched her throw the ball, then when she got the strike her eyes started tearing up LOLOL. It was so funny. Then after she made like she was the master of bowling. We got back to school right when 1st period ended. The periods were 3, 5, 1, 4. In period four, I took an AR test. I passed, HALLELUJIAH. Finished AR for the quarter. My points is 15.1 currently, I only needed 15. So I passed by .1 LOL. So YA pretty g pretty g. 

Highlight of the week was bowling and avid on Monday, only cause we took pics. But bowing mostly because I didd pretty good. But then I was like failing towards the end. I was getting worse and worse every round. I guess it was cause I was rushing to go and eat my food. I hope I go bowling again. 

Lesson learned was, not to give up. I did several things this week that requires for me not to give up. Such as bowling, playing my games, etc. giving up shows your weak spots. Don't let people see your weak spots or they could use it against you anywhere. Don't let anything stop you. Be confident, be... Brave.

What a Wonderful Week

Lolol I keep going on and off with the whole adding a part to my blog everyday. Going back at it today. On Monday, the periods were 6, 2, 4, 3. In period 6, we took notes on a video about Thomas Jefferson & Sacagewea & Lewis & Clark. In period two, we took notes about mechanical waves. In period four, we read the giver, and worked on this packet. In period three, we worked on our chrome books and had a phisilophical chairs debate. It was on wether using smartphones are harmful or not. Afterschool, I went to go pick up forms for my dance studio. I always take breaks then go back. Like when I first joined, I did a concert with them, then I took a break. Then I joined again, and did a concert. Then I took a break, and finally I'm joining again. The total of years that I've been actually dancing adds up to six years. Then I watched the movie the giver at home. It was a pretty good movie. (12/1/14 8:52 pm). On Tuesday, the periods were 1, 3, 5, 2. In period one, we worked on our workbooks. Then I stayed in during recess to finish a page in my algebra book so I wouldn't have to stay in during lunch. Mrs. Gouveia gave us muffins! I was surprised LOL. Seems unusual. I got a blueberry muffin. It's the Kine from Costco, so it's hugeeee. In period three, we worked on our chrome books. We did revisions to our smartphone essay. In period five, we worked on our talent strip project. I'm actually almost done. I just gotta take a video. In advisory, we had a homeroom rep meeting. In period two, we watched a video on a tsunami, & earthquake in Japan. Then we did deconstructing the standard. Then we were looking at articles on if it was safe to eat fish from Japan, since this power plant or whatever blew up during a tsunami, so the waters became contaminated. Afterschool, I went to BK with ashlyn. (12/2/14 5:50 pm). On Wednesday, the periods were 2, 4, 6. In period two, we had a sub. We took notes on somethin about electromagnetic waves & stuff. In period four, we read the giver like we always do. In period six, we worked on a projects about thomas jeffresons tombstone. (12/3/14 7:31 pm). On Thursday, the periods were 3, 5, 1. In period three, we turned in our webgrader reports, and worked with our chrome books again. In period five, we decorated the Christmas tree, and kinda the room. In period one, we worked on our algebra books. We corrected our homework that was like 5 pages long. Afterschool, I forget what we did LOL. (12/4/14 6:58 pm). On Friday, I kept forgetting it was Friday omg. Like in my classes that day I would just randomly say "omg it's Friday?!" Then people would be surprised too 😂😂😂. There was an Avid and Stem field trip that day. Kinda weird how it was on the same day. Two different field trips though. The periods were 4, 6, 2, 1. In period four, we worked on our embedded assessment & stuff. And read the giver. In period six, we worked on our project. My partner had the paper & she was on the field trip so it was complicated. In period two, we had a quiz and we had a choice of keeping it if it was good or throwing it away if it was bad. I ended up throwing mines away because I got two wrong. Then we worked on the telephone cup experiment. In period one, we had a quiz which was really easy. It seemed like go math stuff. It was like the easiest thing ive ever done. Afterschool, I went to Burger King with keaho, maev, and Chels. We ate Icecream and French fries. (12/5/14 7:29 pm)

Highlight of my week would be going to Taco Bell with my friends. We always go there but it's always fun & entertaining. KEAHOS laugh is hillarious omf. And we do the weirdest things together. And they always make my day. So since I spent most of the week with them, my whole week was great. That's why spending time with them is my highlight. I got no lowlights. 

Lesson learned was to surround yourself with people you love, trust, and are comfortable with. I love these girls so much, they're like family. We can always tease eachother and say mean things but we never get offended by it because we just love to play around. Spending time with them is like a happy thing for me to do. We could get on eachothers nerves, push eachother around, laugh at eachother, and so much more, it will basically make our bond tighter. Anything we do together will just drive us closer together, not farther away. 

Missin Asslyn tho 😂😂😭 (Ashlyn)
