Quarter #3 : STAGE CLEARED..!
Summary... —π»π»
-Surprisingly this quarter wasn't too bad. Honestly from how we ended the second quarter, things have improved a lot. It actually flew by quite a bit…There have been some ups and downs in the quarter but they weren’t as bad actually. Anyways, this quarter to start off, we had our interviews! Honestly, it was pretty easy. Though I did mess up a few times in the interview but after reflecting on it afterwards, I learned that I should have more faith in myself… more confidence actually. Cause I was overthinking the interview a bit because Jayna was like making it seem scary lol! But I wasn’t nervous since I’ve done interviews before!!! Also for my interview I made an animation…(thats like one of the few completed animations I actually like completed fully..) but I have a lot of unfinished ones so I plan on finishing them over spring break. Also this quarter we finally completed the yearbook. At the beginning of this quarter, us 7th graders kinda didn’t have our act together so…we weren’t allowed to work on the yearbook for a while. However we managed to get that resolved… I learned a lot from that. I plan on not letting it happen again next year. Anyways also we had a last minute luncheon…aka Mr. Ing’s birthday! Dude I had so so much fun going to longs with mal joolin and jaydin to get the silly disney princess card. It was funny how we made hats even though we didn’t really need to. (I had way to much fun making my hat…) MOOVING ONN, one of the biggest things that happened this quarter was moving houses. Like I’m so glad I moved cause now theres less noise. However I’m not next to the park anymore…. But I only live like another 5 minutes away from my old house. Anyways I love how my room is way bigger than before…like my old room was supposed to be a storage closet lols!! (it was like as big as the kitchen in a102…maybe even smaller) anyways now I have a way better closet!! Anyway also my window is broken and I can literally climb out of it and walk on the roof. The only bad thing about it is when it rains…. Cause my outlet is right next to it and eletrocution!>!>@?!~?!? Is kinda scary. The wifi is rlly bad though so still waiting for my parents to get a better internet thingy. This quarter, every single class was focused on PBL (project based learning) honestly its kinda stupid. Like its all mostly research and stuff.. Might as well give us a project for math at this point???!?!?!? Maybe even make it about building a paper house…(i did that in 6th grade) also its kinda burning lots of people out. Cause like once you finish one project in another class, theres another 3-4 projects waiting for you in your other classes!! And also at the SCC meeting they said that its supposed to be more hands on and help us communicate and work together as a team. I completely understand that but not everyone contributes. Speaking on not everyone contributing, for NHD, i managed to get to district (surpsingingly cause like I was doing my version of bare minimum…) Just saying I’m only using I because my partner didn’t contribute even half percent of the work. I didn’t get to states but many of my 8th graders did and I'm genuinely really proud of them >3<!! Also I learned a lot from that too. After reflecting a bit on how I could’ve been better and stuff, I learned that because I didn’t decide to improve my project at all it ended up being unclear towards the topic. I’m glad I got to learn more from it. But on the other hand, the person I’m working with, started being salty and whining and dissing all the people who got in. Which is completely stupid because he was like “oh OUR project was so good blah blah those other people sucked.” what the hay…. Don’t say our project when I did it all bru…(LMAOSDKASODKSA_) Anyways never working with him again…EVER. I’ve been working with char and its so fun working with her…we both are hard workers and we collaborate and communicate way better. AnYway! This quarter I went to my first fishing outing!! (missed the second one since it was on my bday) It was so fun and I managed to catch something!!! (it was tiny like me lol) Also this quarter, I missed some fishing classes…mostly cause the timing wasn’t really great bc I had appointments and my mom wasn’t able to pick me up on some days or needed help. This quarter we head spirit week!! And honestly it was so fun getting able to not wear the uniform…(tbh i dislike the uniform but whattevers.) Anyways for twin day I was matching with tails and mal was matching with sonic without the sonic merch..what the hey…Anyway there was family nites too..science honestly the snack thingy was the best cause I got free snacks…(i love those granola bars tbh,) OMG ALSO this quarter, after interviews, we got two new people!! AKA CHERISH AND VALERIE!! Though I didn’t really talk to them a whole lot, I’m glad that they’re starting to get somewhat comfortable with everyone else. I literally loved writing so much on my magic notes to them…speaking of magic notes, my magic notes have gotten WAAAAAAAAAY better honestly. Like like ive writing way way more for everyone…especially Mal… I really loved making many many memories with Mal Joolin and Jaydin!! They're the best. (love u guys >o<)
Highlights & Lowlights..—
I’ll start with my highlights! Over this quarter, I’ve listened to many many songs and like I have many favorite artists and genres. Some of my new favorite songs are from MIS… and its Lights Out and It Gets Worse…for some reason whenever I like fixate on something, i find out later on that the creator(S) is problematic and stuff… then I start getting mixed feelings about it!! Another thing is that I found many kinds of comics… like WOAH. one of my favorites is ranfren rn… its so random and chaotic. Like the main character, Randal Ivory, literally sleeps in a coffin and the artstyle is very like wonky and stuff that it’s so interesting to look at. Some other cool comics are like the ember knight and like zomgan and villan to kill and return. they're really cool. Also this quarter ive grown stronger bonds with various people..and even distanced myself form a few people… but overall, I’m not disappointed with how things are now. anyways some more highlights we got yearbook done!! yyayayaya!! honestly I really love taking pictures. Also speaking of pcitures there was the elementary school dance comp!! i got to take pictures wiith mal and it was so so so fun!! Also i got some amazing photos too... Also theres orientation that we;re getting ready for and its so fun fun fun!! I memorized all the dances and its really fun! I ALSO GOT MY GUITAR (finally) after saving like a lot of money ($521) Also another highlight is that ny grade isn;t dropping drastically!! Like I;ve been able to maintain an 4.0..! cause like at the beginning of the year I honestly thought that I was gonna have lots of trouble trying to keep my grade up. Anyway another highlight is that I got in contact with some old friends. It was really fun actually....cause like its been like 2-4 years lol! moving on ive been writing more and animating more. Which has always been so fun! Moving on to my lowlights, time has been moving really fast... honestly way too fast. Like by the end of next quarter, the eighth graders are going to graduate and I'm gonna miss them a lot.. :0 LIKE ESPEICALLY MAL JAYDIN JOOLIN PRACTICALLY EVERYONE...but I'll see them when Im in campbell so yay...also they might even be alumni so.. yeah!! other lowlights is that my window is broken and like my light is broken...(i replaced it but its still not working...) anyways anotehr lowlight is that I've cooped up in my room because my siblings end up being sick literally every other week... sadly.. honestly some other lowlights is the projects we have to do... like there are a lot and honestly I don't really want to do it...Another lowlight is that I didn't get to go to the other fishing outing...like I was so disapointed since I had to stay home because It was my birtjday and my auntie's birthday and my cousins... and I missed all the fun stuff!!!! cause mal and joolin and jaydin got a flying swordfish!!
Lesson(s) learned ... —
- some lessons I learned over the quarter is that well, communcation and including others is important. Anotehr thing I learned over the weeks of school is that you shouldn't let unorganized thoughts stress you out. Writing things out can let organize your thoughts. Anyways another thing I learned is that being honest with other people might hurt their feelings but its for a better cause. For example, I dont like the way someone is working because they're putting no effort while I'm putting effort and taking time from my own weekend to do a project. Moring on, another thing I learned that sometimes you need to make decisions even if you know that people won't like it. Whenever I made decisions, I thoguht that everyone needed to like my choice for it to be a smart choice. However its actually what ever choice seems most logical and will affect the future in a good way.
What I look forward 2 & change…—
- Anyway moving on to what I looked forward too in quarter 4. I look forward to most orientation since I'm the narrator and if I'm being completely honest, I'm kind of nervous. However I just need to work hard on memorizing my script and pracrice a lot. Anyways some other things I look forward too is the dance comp! after seeing the elementary dance comp and how they danced I honestly can't wait to see the RPs dance! another thing I look forward too is getting fourth quarter over with. (mostly the stress..ill miss all of our 8th graders a lot...) I also look forward to making more memories with everyone else before the school year comes to a close. Finally some things I would change is how I procrastinate on homework... I've been slacking a bit and it's always resulting with me getting stressed out quite a bit. Something else I would change is how the SCC meetings are always on family nite days... (like i feel like my eyes are burning after the meetings.) A final thing I'd change about this quarter would be how I thought over this quarter. For example, i would worry a lot this quarter and it would honestly make me really frustrated and I ended up being super cranky and annoying to my friends or parents or just people I talk with.
