last weekly blog of 2k14)-:

OKOK SO ITS THE LAST WEEKLY BLOG OF 2K14 OMG. This week went by so fast with so many emotions and new people walking through my life. So we had a hectic week, having Secret Santa and Winter Fair all in one week. Since this week all we did was do games and watch movies, I don't think it's worth talking about right now for the summary of the week. So I'll talk about the main things that was more important and that grabbed my attention. Getting ready for an upcoming which was secret Santa went smooth, I explained everything in my last blog so you should check that out if you wana know what happened((: but I mainly wana talk about Winter Fair. so damn, Friday was so different. 7th and 8th had lunches together and advisory. We had Strictly ILL perform and Royale Prodigies do a flash mob. I took pictures of the event since Jenaya was working during a main part. I made eye contact with this one person who mattered to me and I'm glad he looked at me. I really loved how strictly Ill performed, good job Mr. Barayuga and his fellow dance students(: I loved it so much, wish I could watch it on replay in my head. But yeah, everyone was talking about how it was the last school day of 2k14, I wanted to cry a little realizing how close it was to New Years and Christmas. Today, it's only 5 days away from Christmas. 13 more days until 2k15. Wow, strange to see who I ended up at the end of the year. Pretty proud of myself of who I met. Not regretting the rumors tbh, they can talk about me all they want. Thanks for mentioning my name around so they know who he's talking to ;* I loved Winter Fair too much that I wish it never ended. See you leadership family next year(: wow that seems like it's in a long time LOL.

Highlight of the week would be winter fair. Winter fair was a blast. The best part of it would be watching Strictly Ill perform, I love their performance. Glad to know my math teacher was the dance teacher(: I miss my math class now, he hugged me so right I couldn't breathe LOL those are the best hugs. It was nice seeing people laugh and smile that day, good company. 

Lesson learned would be life is too short so we should make the best of it. Forget the drama, forget the people who isn't worth your time, and just live life. Love the life you live and live the life you love. You only live once LOL mind as well do it with no regrets. I just wana point out that thanks to those who stayed by my side, helped me or attempted to help me, encouraged me, been there for me at my darkest moments, you guys are the real MVP ((((((:

Secret Santa Experience 2k14 (:

okay so this blog is going to be talking about my experience of secret Santa with leadership. When i came in the morning, it was so early and I had Kaylyn help me bring in my tacos LOL so she knew what bag I had for my person. As I came in, nobody was in there which was the good part. 5 minutes after I set up and came in, people started coming and bringing in their gifts so I came in at a good time. Everyone brought food for everyone to eat, it was good to be honest. I had chicken katsu, Mac salad, musubi, and lumpia. I was in a rush that morning, my dad was mad I had to get the tacos last minute): so I had a frustrating morning but the day turned out good itself. As I wait for the Christmas tree to be filled with gifts underneath, I got more excited as someone brought in there gift for a person. When it finally came to lunch, we realized we were missing a person in the activity, it was Taven. Since we're missing someone, that means someone isn't getting their gift on that day. As everyone was passing out their gifts, my secret Santa was Kaylyn (: I was so happy to receive it because I relieved Taven wasn't my secret Santa LOL. Thank you Kaylyn again ! It actually brought a big smile to my face even though I knew what I was gonna get, idk why. But as it came to the last person to give someone their gift, it was me LOLOL. It was only Petriese and hope left, I could tell Petriese was hoping she didn't have Taven as her secret Santa lmbu, she said the funniest things. As I grabbed my gift, I went over to Petriese to make her think I was her secret Santa when I was really hope's. Hope was so happy she got up so fast and started hugging me so right and saying thank you repeatedly. It felt good getting someone something LOL. I would want to do this activity again in the future.  Thank you my leadership family for making December 17th memorable (((:

Highlight would be receiving my gift lol. I was so happy Kaylyn was my secret Santa, i was so relieved when she put it in front of me. I started freaking out and thinking Taven would be mine but it wasn't. It got to the point where I needed to pee in the middle of the activity 😂😭bwahaha, but I held it in. It was such a fun thing to do, I think we should do similar stuff like this often. I got 2 gifts cards by the way(: one Starbucks and one iTunes card, ive been wanting them both for a very long time! So I was so glad. Thank you so much Kaylyn ! This is like my 5th time telling you thank you LOL.

Lesson learned is to be greatful for the smallest things that you get and cherish moments more. I don't usually like big presents but I know it makes me smile knowing how big it is lol, when I got those gift cards I realized I don't need any big gifts or expensive gifts to please me, it's the thought that counts. I also learned to cherish moments more, that small amount of time we were with each other made me realize that type of things like that needs to be appreciated more. We don't know when we'll see each other again so let's appreciate each other more than we should no matter if we don't get along. glad to have these great people in my life((((((:

LOL ENJOY THIS AWKWARD PICTURE OF ME OKOK ILY GUYS

➁ Quarter Blog ࿊

wowowow another quarter gone just like that? so much things happened. lost some friends, gain some friends, been through drama, dropped the drama, so much mixed emotions about this quarter. I actually like this quarter, it was interesting to me. Got to get close to some people who I thought I wouldn't have. It's been such a pleasure to end my quarter and 2014 with people who stayed by my side. It's strange to think about who I'm ending the quarter and year with, like damn. Struggled through some classes but I pulled through, thank you lord for letting me pass all my classes. Next quarter will be interesting, not looking forward to it since there's new expectations/standards. But this quarter I did too much research for a class and too much writing for almost all my classes, and too much confusing things, I think leadership was easy for me to handle. I always like working because I get to do something productive. I think the class I probably struggled in was AVID or social studies. All my teachers were awesome this quarter, I'm glad they still get to teach me but I miss Mrs. Akimoto): anyways, it's a bad time for me to be facing some bs this whole month. but other than that everything went perfectly fine. 

Some things changed in my opinion or maybe a lot of things. We have weekly AR goals now which is frustrating): and we can't make intros in the morning, we ain't getting FT forms after he passes them out the first time (just changed), we use walkie talkies now, and we changed seats again. We also got two new boys which is siofu and Taven, they're struggiling I guess so I should help them. The things that stayed the same was that if we have D's or F's, we're on probation still, we still gotta do AR, & we do our daily jobs. We did more events than first quarter I know that for sure, busy all the time, we still have group leaders of course. And I think that's all I remember. If there's anything I realize, I'll add it.

Highlight of this whole quarter was secret Santa tbh. We just did secret Santa today and it was so fun. I was the last person to give my gift to Petriese or hope , Taven wasn't at school so he couldn't give his person her gift. I grabbed my present, walked over to Petriese then went over to hope to making Petriese think I was her secret Santa LOL, I feel bad. we ate good food too! my secret Santa was Kaylyn, thank you so much again I never been so happy to see the gift I wanted before like that LOL. This activity brought so many smiles to majority of the leadership students, I enjoyed it so much. Hopefully I'll spend another secret Santa with leadership for another time. 

Lesson learned of the whole quarter would be to learn from our mistakes. This quarter I made mistakes that shouldn't be made and made mistakes that can apply to my life now. I learned to not get my hopes too high and that I'm living in the thought and imagination of somebody caring and loving as if we we're something. We make mistakes, we should learn from them. Been through so much this quarter and I'm still wondering how I'm able to still function normally when too many crap is going on in my head, and I'm the one who keeps telling myself to believe. "Be careful what you believe" I really don't wana believe anything. But yeah, this quarter was great but shitty (excuse my language). 

TALENT STRIPS 2K14

This assignment blog is about Talent Strips. Talent strips is when we write about our talents on a strip. We have to write our name on one of the sides of the strip and explain our talent on the other. We got to present each talent on a different day in the front of the classroom of everyone. I was super nervous but now that I think of it, I really don't know why I was. We got three different colors to make sure we don't get mixed up. My talents that I used was Conscientious, it means doing one's job well or hoping the best for one. I also used taking charge, I like to charge in events because I know for myself I could get the job done on time. Another talent that I used was helping others, helping others is what I like to do. When I help others, I'm glad I gave them greater knowledge of the subject.

Highlight of this assignment was designing my name for the strips. It took awhile, I got feedback from my family which fonts I should do for my name since I don't know a lot of fonts. My dad actually drew it out and I traced it. It took a lot of time since it wasn't plain. I got to trace really cool effects for my name, but it took a long time for me to make it straight. I enjoyed my dad helping me since I take really long to draw a cool effect for my name.

Lesson learned to observe more. I had to ask people for feedback on my actions, those feedback was very beneficial. But I should observe myself and see how well I do and find my own talents. It's better for me to think what I think of myself so I should my opinion. But at the same time collecting "evidence" or feedback is good, because it's their opinion. It's good to collect information from different people.

If I were to change anything, it would how I explained my talents. In my opinion, I feel like I didn't speak my talents thoroughly enough. I would upgrade my vocabulary more since I'm not impressed with it. I would also practice speaking in front of everybody since I had trouble, it would improve how I am in front of people. It'll improve my self-confidence. I would always speak in front of everyone and be the first one, but I think having people who watch me closely makes me nervous on how I perform.

stressin' 4eva

still have things on my mind and it's mentally killing me. I haven't really went deep into it with the closest people about it, I don't need any loud mouths. Talked to one of my teachers that I could count on and he gave me the best lecture about the whole thing, I'll never forget the little cartoon story that made me tear up. But anyways, Monday's periods were 5,1,3,6. Tuesday's periods were 6,2,4,5. Wednesday's periods were 1,3,5. Thursday's periods were 2,4,6. Friday's periods were 3,5,1,4. This week was a rollar coaster of feelings to be honest, still can't believe what I got myself into, although people lended a helping hand I wasn't able to be open with them about what happened. I'm still guard-ish of how I'll be hurt. anyways, 1st period was AVID I did tutorials and binder check. 2nd period was MATH, we did markup and markdown. For 3rd was Science, we took CN and worksheets. For 4th it was SOCIAL STUDIES (idk why it's in caps?) but we did our research essay, I had queen Liliuokalani. 5th period, we worked on our PowerPoint for talent strips. 6th period was English, we did springboard and SUTW.

Highlight of the week would be going to ISA bowling. Even though I sucked on most games(x I had much fun with great company. I ran into some familiar faces that I missed so much and by looking at them, they changed so much it made me wana cry on how much I'm missing out on their lives that I've been in for at least 7 years. But the competition was good, still don't know what team won. but everything was such a good time. s/o to Deriecka for buying me food when I didn't ask for it, ily dericka (spelt name purposely wrong) ((((:

Lesson learned would be that we all go through changes that will make us better people than we were in the past. Sometimes people who are loved by a person leave them for their differences, and when they finally went through what they needed to go through like changes, it's the right timing for them to be back together. it may not be a right timing but they came into their lives for a reason to teach them a valuable lesson. Thank you Jesus for these people who are blessing to my life that walked out of my life and those who stayed just to teach me what life can do. 😌✊ 

HULIAAAAAAAAA SINCE DAY ONE 

Kool kid J

saddest week so far )));

damn been going through so many shii that's so personal, I wana cry. I hate my love life. anyways I'll sum up my week. Monday's periods were 6,2,4,3. Tuesday's period were 1,3,5,2. Wednesday's periods were 2,4,6. Thursday's periods were 3,5,1. And lastly, Friday's periods were 4,6,2,1. During 1st period, which is AVID we did our CFA review and a binder check. 2nd period was math, we did percent notes, markup and markdown and a review of markup and markdown. 3rd period was science, we did a test review then the final test. 4th period was SS, in SS we gathered info for our research that we need to write an essay about and we did our rough draft and peer graded. 5th period, we worked on Christmas decorations, YB, and our PowerPoint that's an upcoming project that's due next week. 6th period is English, we worked on springboard lessons and how to do SUTW. well that was it.

Highlight of the week would he decorating the Christmas tree (: I loved doing it with period 5, we all worked together, LOL well except for one person..but that doesn't matter cos we finally made the Christmas tree all fabulous and pretty. I love decorating Christmas trees tbh, it's my favorite thing to do when it's near Christmas and I got to do it with my leadership period who's supported me through thick and thin. I love them all. 

Lesson learned would be move on. Lately I've been having personal problems with a person who I thought I cared about who turned out to be someone I couldn't hurt at the end of the day. we both deserve to be happy, I realize I couldn't be with that person because we smother each other too much that we don't let other people get to know us. I really do miss that person but I gotta be independent for once and focus on myself. Such great memories and bad moments happened with that person and they still stuck by my side so thank you to that person. s/o to the person who dealt with my crazy butt. one last goodbye to them.
