Weekly Blog #12: The Blurring



 Hello ‘Ilima

     This week has gone by so quickly. I literally forgot so many things that happened and I have just been going through the weekend so slowly. It has felt like years but what I did was a lot. First of all, corn hole finished up and it was good. I don’t understand why the others hate inter murals so much because I like watching the other students play the games. The highest score I was was a 16 and it was impressive because the home room didn’t have a lot of students. Because this week was short, our magic notes were due earlier. It was kind of stressful but I got it done. The hard part was helping the GT. Since they didn’t know a lot of people, it was harder for them to do their magic notes and Dylan waited so long to do his. But a really good thing about him is how fast he can work. To give context, binder checks happened the week and we needed two advisory math pages. But we couldn’t grab the paper until Dylan turned his magic notes in. We were all stressing about it but in the blink of an eye, he turned in all of his magic notes and we were able to get the paper. I also got to teach my choreography to the boys. I taught more parts to some people but they all got a little bit of a lesson. I really like how it’s going and I can’t wait for the final result. Not a lot happened school wise but we have two upcoming tests. It’s funny how the AVID test keeps on being pushed back. It was supposed to be last week but now it is going to be next week. This week went by quick but I enjoyed it.

     A highlight from this week was reading my magic notes. These were definitely my favorite week of magic notes and the GT did good writing their first ones. Another highlight would be corn hole because I do really like inter murals and corn hole is very unique. A lowlight would have to be math. We had a lot of difficult math homework this week and it’s just stressful. This next lowlight is very specific as on Thursday I was told that I would be given a Twix bar and I never got it. Twix is a top 2 candy all time and I am so mad that I was tricked like that.

     A lesson I learned from this week was to stop being gullible. I thought I wasn’t gullible but then I fell for the Twix trick and I gave money to other people. Maybe this could also mean to stop being a push over but I need to toughen up.

    As mentioned before, the magic notes this week were so good. I literally couldn’t pick so we have a four way tie with four honorable mentions. A honorable mention will be worth .5 star. So our honorable mentions are…….. Riselle, Jayden, Gabby, and Jayna. All your magic notes were so good but they didn’t break the top 4 for me. And so the 4 winners are…. Mal, Naomi, Reese, and Jewelyn. Their magic notes were so nice and I just had to give it to them. So our leaderboard looks like: Jewelyn w/ 3, Gabby w/ 1.5, Mal, Naomi, and Reese w/ 1, Jayna, Riselle, and Jayden with .5, and everyone else with 0. The competition is tough and everyone is fighting for the top spot. This concludes my blog and I wish you the best. Cheers to another day!

Hello 'Ilima As I lay down on my bed, my phone starts ringing.  "Hey, it's John from the Book Club! Are you ready for the first meeting?" Oh no! I panic. When I first moved in, there was an advertisement for a book club and I decided to join it. The first meeting would be today and I would need to talk about a book I recently read. I looked around my house, trying to find the right book to talk about, but none of them stood out. None except "2425", I grabbed the book, got dressed, and dashed towards where the book club was being held.  "Hello everyone! Welcome to the first meeting of our book club. I hope you are all ready to share your books" John said, sitting from his spot in the group circle. After the first couple of people shared their books, it was then my turn to share. I took a deep breathe and then began talking. Summer: After 7th grade ended, there was a short break where we could relax before it was time for Bridge to start up again. Un...

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...
