First week of school at Ilima

This week was a really great week . I met new friends . And reunited with some of my old friends . On Monday we started school for the 7th graders . I tried to make as much friends as possible . On Tuesday it was school for the 8th graders . On Wednesday , everyone went to school together . It was a little scary because I didn't know most of them . But I made friends with some of them . Most of them are really nice and funny ! I'm glad I'm in intermediate . I got lost on my way to some classes . One time I ended up in B building ! That's all the eighth graders . I freaked out a little . But I found my way to class . I like rotating classes . I was used to staying in one class , but now I'm doing something new (: My favorite teachers are Mr.Ing , Mrs.Fujimoto , and Mr.Nishimura . They're really nice . Period four worked on music . 4B did morning and recess music , 4A did lunch music . On Friday we had a meeting for 7th grade council . I'm running for secretary . I hope I win .

The highlight of my week was making new friends . I probably made 10+ friends . Most of them said they're voting me for Secretary . I hope to make even more friends next week ! I'm in team 7-3 . Most of the people in my team are really friendly . I met alot of people . I tried making friends with most of them . In the morning and at recess I try introducing myself to other people . I'm doing pretty well on that . I want to have alot of friends in intermediate . Not just the people I already knew .

I learned that meeting new people is really great . It helps you have more friends , so you're not lonely in the future . I just don't want to have only one friend . I need friends that will stick by my side for a long time . Not friends that will leave in the middle of my journey . Friends that will always trust me . And friends that I can trust . Different types of friends lead you to different types of paths for the future . I hope the friends that I make and meet won't bring me into trouble . I have that one friend who is always by my side .

Last Week of Summer Leadership

Hey guys . This week was really fun for me . In leadership we finished up the rest of the payments . On Monday there was a storm . So it prevented some people from coming .That made things a little hard . But I showed up anyways . On Tuesday we went on a joyride fail (x LOL . We tried looping around ewa . But we went through kapolei -,- and we almost went to Waipahu . Never looping again . On Friday we went to the beach . We bonded and relaxed . I got sunburnt . Not sun kissed . We swam alot . I got buried in the sand . The thing that sucked was sand kept going in my eyes and face .  I love leadership field trips . we always bond and bonding gets me closer to other people . And some of us got interviewed by someone from the news . I can't wait till the next field trip . I love bonding with others . When I bond with people , no one gets left behind .

My highlight of the week was spending time with everyone in leadership . I used goggles and I went underwater all the way to the floor and I grabbed everyone's ankles . Some of them got scared . Maliah and I kept finding rocks that looked just like our fingers . It was creepy . Khrizz , Korey , Laila , and I made a sand village . I made a sandman and two cabins . It eventually got destroyed . I almost got attacked by pigeons . I wanted to go to the wall but everyone went . So I couldn't go . But I had fun playing in the sand . Alesia almost got hit by a guy on a skateboard doing tricks lol .

I learned that you're closer to others than you think . I thought I couldn't trust some people because I didn't know them well . But I learned to trust them . I wouldn't have let them hold up towels while I changed (x . You know who you are . 
I gained my trust for them when we bonded at the beach . We didn't notice that we didn't have our phones for about 3 or 4 hours .

Schedule Pick-Up & Week 4


Sorry for the late post ! Internet wasn't working last night , and I went to two different parties , one in the afternoon and one at night at Hale Koa . So I didn't have any time to finish it . Friday July 19 was schedule pick up , my job was to call people that were waiting inline to take their ID pictures . It was tiring cause I had to walk back and forth LOL . But it was fun seeing people from elementary . I had to get their dues receipt and their schedule , so I could tell Mackenzie the first three letters of their last name . If they payed for both dues , I would tell her PD YB . If only one , I would say PD or YB . I don't have any pictures of me working because no one took pictures of me . Only Petriese had pictures even though we worked the same exact job .-. 

 My week wasn't bad . We all started shifts , the first two days I wasn't able to go to leadership because I had no one to catch bus with in the morning , I was supposed to ride the bus with Alesia but she went to the hospital for her sister and niece . Wednesday we started at 10:00 ? We continued schedule pick up and selling uniforms . 

My highlight of the 4th week was working with my period for a certain amount of time . I didn't get to spend time with friends from the other periods , but I spent more time with my period . I got to sell tshirts in A102 . I found out that I can subtract in my head ! *o* . that's weird . But that was my highlight of my week .

The lesson I learned was that everyone has a hidden talent . Some might be able to sing , some might be able to do really weird things . I didn't know I could subtract in my head LOL . I always used a calculator . But I realized the calculator is in my head . And I have a burger pose x)

Bio Cubes

Why hello there my fellow bloggers , as you can see , this is my Bio Cube . It has six different sides . Personality , Quotation , Background , Significance , Obstacle , and a picture of myself . It took a couple of days to finish it . I had to put adhesive construction paper to decorate it LOL . 

The highlight of making the bio cubes was learning more about eachother . We found out things about eachother that we didn't even know . Some people have traits that we don't really see . I thought some of their "hidden" traits were cool .

The lesson that I learned while making the bio cubes was that everyone is different , so you shouldn't rely on friends for answers . If you need help on a project that has to do with yourself , your friends can't help you , cause you guys arnt exactly alike . So only you can answer those type of questions . Connect with your inner self to find the right answers .

Glo 1: I was a self directed learner because I was able to finish my work by myself without relying on others .
Glo 2: I was a community contributor because when it came to working with a group , I helped out .
Glo 3: I was a complex thinker because when there was a problem , I was able to solve it .
Glo 4: I was able to produce quality work because I made sure that everything was perfectly fine , and nothing was out of place .
Glo 5: I was able to communicate clearly when I share some of my projects , I don't mumble , because I know if you mumble you won't be able to understand .
Glo 6: I was an effective and ethical user of technology because I printed , and typed out my script . And I know how to use the printer . I was able to print out my picture as well .

I hope you guys enjoy my bio cube blog ! xoxo

My second week of leadership :)

On the second week , we worked in the Tv Room , Made our bio cubes , We sketched ideas for the yearbooks , And we used the mixer . In the Tv room we practiced going live . I had a hard time seeing the screen because I didn't have my glasses that time LOL . So I was squinting while I was on live . For bio cubes it was a little scary cause we had to cut the boxes with knives :/ But at least my cube was perfect ( I think ). When we did music , we practiced speaking on the microphone , making transitions during songs . I learned how to work the mixer ! For the yearbooks I drew a big dream catcher on the back and a cloud in the front that had the words "Timeline Of Dreams" in it . With pictures of the students on a clothesline behind it .

My highlight of the week was when I went on a "Pizza Date" with some of my friends from leadership , Petriese , Daisy , Korey , Laila , Haley , and Khrizz . We all chipped in to buy pizza , breadsticks , and pasta . That was a good lunch though . Then after most of us went to this park that had swings . Petriese and Korey or Khrizz went up really high ! 

The lesson I learned was never sit on on the side alone . By that I mean don't be shy . Make as much friends as possible . Having alot of friends raises your self esteem (in my opinion) It raises your self esteem because it makes yourself think that you're not alone . If I was the quiet one and I never talked to anyone , I wouldn't have gotten invited to go anywhere . Like the park and Pizza Hut . Okay that ends my blog ! Byeeeee !

My First Week of Leadership

        The first three days of leadership was not that bad . We cleaned up and organized classrooms , such as A101 , A102 . We also thought of themes for our upcoming      yearbooks .  The trouble that we had when we were trying to work the mixer and the speakers . It took a while for it to cooperate with us . At the end we figured it out !
         My highlight of the week was meeting new friends and reuniting with the ones we remembered . I also got placed it the best period . Period 4 . Even though we only spent three days as a group , we seem like we have known each other forever . We're tight as a knot . We're like family . 

         I learned that doing things as a group makes things a lot more easier . Like how we helped each other figure out how to work the mixer and the speakers . When we cleaned up , it was a lot more easier when we helped one another out .
