oh gosh I never really seemed to realize how fast the year goes by until it's actually over. It's so crazy to think that there's only three days left of school before seventh-grade is over. It really feels like the school year just started. but I don't want to get emotional over this because it's a good thing and an exciting thing and of course a sad thing to but everything is sad if you look at it in a certain way. A summary of this last quarter at ilima as a seventh grader would start off at orientation. Because the orientation was so crazy it was very hard to prepare for but also very exciting. I was really excited to have a speaking part and I'm pretty proud with how I did at the orientation I mean at all three of them. The preparation for the orientation was very hectic but we still made it through and I'm proud of us for that. Our next big obstacle
or at least my big obstacle was SBAC testing which all of the teachers talked about as some big scary test which made me very nervous but after or even while we were taking the test it wasn't as scary as I was expecting, I actually was comfortable with it and I'm confident that my test scores were alright and hopefully higher than average because that's my goal. and a last big obstacle that us as a leadership family faced as a whole was recognition night. Which wasn't actually so bad it was pretty fun honestly but that's probably because we didn't have to do all the preparations. but other than that another personal obstacle was my AR goal, was supposed to be super easy but since it was a busy quarter for me flying out to visit family and stuff in the mainland made it hard for me to do my goal which shouldn't be an excuse and I should've been responsible and finished it on time but I didn't, and I'm just proud that I finished my Gold is quarter which I don't even think I did last quarter so that's pretty embarrassing but I'm glad that I could've fixed it this time, better late than never.
oh boy, lesson learned? Out of the many many lessons i've learned this quarter I think a few big ones would have to be that one, keep your public life public, and your private life private. if you don't want people to know about or talk about your private life then don't put it on social media for everyone to see, make sure that what you say on social media is what you want everyone to see forever, because that's a big problem that we as a generation have today. another lesson is obviously to not have regrets, because were young and we should get involved in as many activities and things that we enjoy while we still can, so we don't have to say that we should have when we could have. Don't miss out on opportunities that you may not have later on in your life. and one last lesson I learned was probably probably be that the people you hang out with reflect on you. If you noticed that your friends are not good people you need to realize you're just like them, because it's proven that our personalities usually are the same as those who we hang around with. So if you want to be a good person, find a good group of people that you respect and that you know your family would be proud to have over for dinner to be your friends, not the "cool kids" Who always get into trouble, Because honestly what's better in the long run who is going to stay there for you and who is going to help your future.
boo highlights, there were so many this quarter! it's hard to point out a few main ones for me since there were just so many. I fixed the many of my relationships with my friends and again like every quarter I lost some friends but everything happens for a reason. I think one highlight that sticks out to me just off the top of my head, is recognition night because of how fun it was. Oh and orientation that was really fun to giving Tuers to the six graders knowing that they're going to be with us next year. and lowlight? Probably the fact that I didn't finish my AR goal on time but other than that this quarter was pretty okay there wasn't many bad moments I'm okay with it. not a bad way to end the year.
I couldn't really find a really good picture that could represent this quarter in the way that I really wanted it to but I guess this one would be the second closest thing that I would've chosen since my dream picture doesn't exist.
