Weekly Blog #8: Drowsy Dramatic



 Welcome ‘Ilima

     School ends in just a week and it’s time to celebrate. But I am so tired. We had the first Family Nite and I enjoyed it. I worked at the Financial Literacy booth and we just had to watch the people play the game that the teacher made. The game itself was based off the show, “Who Wants to be a Millionaire.” and it was fun. The other booths were also fun as they had a CPR practice doll, a wheel of questions, bean bags, and rockets. Thursday overall was exhausting as my mom’s surgery was also on that day. She is currently recovering and will come home soon. This week was also the start of Drama club and it was nothing like the one at Holomua. This one was smaller and we played a whole lot of games. It was very awkward as I was the only boy and I only knew one person. I also had very little sleep across the whole week as I had long events on Tuesday and Wednesday. But on Saturday, I met up with my Leadership period. We had a lot of fun and we watched movies. We also had some substitutes for some classes. Language Arts had a sub and I could barley hear her. She would talk to quietly and it was annoying. AVID had a sub and she was just there. She didn’t say anything when the boys were screaming and just told us to do our journals. This week we had TV so we after school sales and I had to leave early but we did absolutely nothing so I just was able to leave with nothing done. Speaking of TV, I was on TV! There was a lot of things I think I could of done better because I didn’t do the intro I wanted, my voice wasn’t how I liked it to be, and a lot of other small details. But I can’t wait for the next time I get on TV. They also had the ISH finals which was very silly. It looked so boring but it was funny because the people were on the stage. This week overall has been so tiring but so fun.

     A highlight from this week would have to be the period 3 meet up as I had so much fun and made some memories. Even if the aftermath was a bit unfortunate. Another highlight would have to be Family Nite as it was also very fun and I enjoyed working at the Financial Literacy booth. A lowlight would have to be the substitutes because they were so quiet and we never learned anything while they were there.


    I learned multiple things this week so here’s a couple of them. The first one was to not eat too much sugar as it will hurt you. Trust me. Then the next two lessons were from Family Nite. I learned financial skills and how to do CPR. Both are helpful things to know for the future. Finally, I learned how I could improve myself on TV. Next time I will try to slow down and be louder. This concludes the week and almost the quarter. Hope you have a great last week. Cheers to another day!

Hello ‘Ilima You’ve been traveling on foot for the past couple of days now and you are starving. Your supply of water ran out and you are desperate for a resting place. Out of the corner of your eye, you see a wooden cabin. You knock on the front door and an old man answers your knocks. He had gray, curly hair and has a built stature. His eyes look tired and his hands look dirty. “Oh hello there, do you need anything?” You explain your situation and the man lets you in. He allows you to stay in his house for all long as you needed to. You wash up in his bath as he prepares you a meal. When you are clean, he gives you brand new clothing in order to be more comfortable. As you start eating the food, the old man asks you about your journey. You explain how you have been looking for a purpose in your life and went on a voyage to explore the world. “I think I have a story that can help you.” the old man tells you. You interest is piqued and you want to hear what he has to say. “It all start...

Weekly Blog 3-7 (60): Meeting of the Victors

Hello 'Ilima What is up ‘Ilima! This week of school was much more of a ramp up week as next week is the big one. But that doesn’t mean this week wasn’t full of stuff to do. The biggest school event would be the Graduation Meeting. During this meeting, parents would learn about the 8th grade graduation and learn about the different parts of the graduation. There wasn’t very much to do as a leadership member, but it was still good to hear about the information for my graduation. That was the only school event, but I still had a bunch of class work. First, we have had this project in Computer Science where we need to guide a robot from one point to another. This project has been pretty frustrating at times because the robot sometimes just doesn’t do what you want it to do. And it’s hard to make changes to your programming because we are sharing the robot amongst the whole class, making it difficult to see the changes you make. I wish we had multiple robots in order for us to be able t...

Weekly Blog 3-6 (59): Shopping for Tests

 Hello ‘Ilima What’s is up! This week was only 4 days long, but was still full of many things. Starting with Leadership related things, we had the second Recognition Night of the year on Thursday. There was a lot less people this time, but it was still fun to cheer on the people who got good grades. I had gotten a 4.0 and walking up on stage was cool. The most interesting part of Recognition Night was what happened before it as me and some people from Leadership had fun doing random things outside. We had a race, listened to music, and more. Moving onto school stuff, we had the Science SBA this week. I was pretty anxious because I had no idea what to expect for the test. So when I first opened the test, I was met with a lot of things that I had not learned before. But I endured the pain and after two classes, I finished my SBA with Level 4. It was a terrible experience, but at least I got a good score. Final thing I will mention is that there was an ELA poster that we had to create...
