Weekly Blog #15: Bowling For Rain



 Hello ‘Ilima

    This week has ISA bowling and what a time it was. It was on Friday and most of leadership participated in it. It took a long time for the bus to come but when we got on, another school was also on the bus. I was hating it already and then everyone started to sing. Now I did sing along but still. The bus ride there was fine with not a lot actually happening. When we got there, we went to our place and we got the game plan. I was going to bowl with the other girls in my period and we were playing on lane 18. There was going to be 3 games in total and the highest score for each category wins. I was so confident going in but everything was going horribly. I couldn’t hit the pins because the ball was going to the right side when I didn’t want it to and would go off. I was getting so mad and the problem was only discovered 2 1/2 games in. So my bowling experience wasn’t the best but the whole team did really good. This week was also very rainy. After school activities were canceled for most of the week and everything was wet. But the week overall was good.

The Bus Ride to the Bowling Alley

The Whole Campus Being Rained On
    A highlight from this week would have to be the field trip aspect of the bowling. It was fun going to the bowling alley and I made memories. Another highlight would have to be the rain because it canceled a lot of things which made this week more chill. A lowlight from this week would be the actual bowling because I was laughably bad. I want to have another chance now that I know my mistake but I don’t think I will have that opportunity.

     A lesson I learned from this week was don’t use past experience to assess current skill. This is because of the bowling. I used to be really good at bowling but I hadn’t played in years. But I told everyone that I was going to be good because of this experience and that clearly didn’t happen. So maybe just admit that you aren’t as good or maybe try to keep that skill level.
 
    This week had some good magic notes so let’s see what we got. The honorable mentions are……….Dominic and Gabby. Your magic notes were good but not at the level of these next winners. So those winners are………. Zhalea, Jewelyn, and Reese. Your magic notes were so kind and I just felt good reading them. Jewelyn w/5, Reese w/3, Gabby w/2, Riselle and Mal w/1.5, Naomi, Dominic, and Zhalea w/1, Jayna and Jayden w/.5, and everyone else with 0. Powerhouses are being formed and who knows who will win. 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...
