2nd quarter down two more to go!
The main thing that happened to me in 2nd quarter which was a real low light of the quarter is when I got into the problem. What started this whole thing is when I first cheated on AR which was a dumb idea. This lead me to not working anything. My regular jobs and ISA. I asked Mr.Ing for a second chance. He gave me one which was to work ISA in the morning, recess, and advisory. I was stupid enough to ask him if I'm getting credit. That ruined my chances of everything. That's when the problem lead on to the next week. I tried some solutions. From breakfast with Mr.Ing, to writing on post its, blogs, and finally talking to him. Nothing really helped but it gave me hints. The problem had just went on for weeks and finally we had a meeting. This is where I made the dumbest choice every and decided to lose my priviledges and a solution. This was by far the worst choice I made because it ruined everything. I know I could have thought of something better then this. I lost my chair, cubby, desk, mostly everything. I was crushed. I felt so useless coming into A101, because all I did was exist in that class. I talked to Mr.Ing and that definitely made a change. I'm so glad I talked to him. Because a couple days after I talked to him I got my vest back. I was happy that I could finally work again and do something besides exist. Til this day I can still work. So that went on for a while. But what messed up everything is when I followed Haley to go to the library and work. But that changed, because I'm leading myself out of the problem. Then I had to find a way to make up my missing jobs. That didn't go very well. But I helped special needs for one class period, which was period 2. But that's the only time I had to go out and find my own way to make up jobs. Because I was lucky enough for Mr.Ing to give me a chance to work candy grams to make up my jobs. I didn't have to go out and find my own way to make up my jobs. I was the only one who showed up to work from the front table, and I'm proud that I did. I am also still working candy grams. A couple days after I figure out the work schedule for winter fair. Mr.Ing gave the three of us a chance to work music for winter fair. But that changed because now I'm working alone for 75 minutes of music for winter fair. But that's okay, because I'm just lucky enough to be working! I took the chance he gave me, and I'm not losing another opportunity like I did with ISA. I asked a dumb question which ruined my chances of getting out of the problem. But not this time, I won't mess up. These were definitely the highlights, and yet low lights of 2nd quarter.
The lessons I learned from 2nd quarter. I learned a lot. For one is that trust is so easy to lose, yet so hard to gain back. So be careful with it. Don't play with it because it's not a toy. Mr.Ing's trust is hard to gain back and so easy to lose. Trust is very important in leadership. So don't mess with it. Obviously I learned not to cheat. It was a really dumb choice of me to cheat in the first place. I learned that even a couple of words could make a big difference, and a question too. So be careful of what you say. Also to be careful of the solutions you think of. Don't just think of a random one. Be smart about it because it could either have a positive or negative affect. My solution had a negative affect, which isn't good. To NOT be a follower. It's called leadership not followship. Take actions for yourself, and don't wait for someone else to do something for you. I got myself into this problem, and I could get myself out of it. When your given a chance to do something, take it! Don't say something that would blow it away. You have a great opportunity in your hands. Don't just throw it away. Take it! Don't ruin it. Be lucky with what you have, because it's better then nothing. Our choices affect everyone. Whatever you do has an affect. Like all of my choices affected my period. It wasn't a good thing. These are the lessons I learned in 2nd quarter. I think I might be leaving some out, but these are the main ones I learned and are stuck in my head.

Just one more week!
This was a fun week! On Monday I went to safeway my friends. It was weird because there were these Ewa Makai boys and one of them liked me o.o ew. They were weird. Also we got in trouble from one of the workers because they accused us of bumping into customers, when it wasn't us. On Tuesday I didn't go to practice but alesia and cheana came to my house and we played hide and clap. It was really fun and hot. On Wednesday I think we just hung out at my house. On Thursday we went to safeway again and saw the ewa makai boys. They kept staring at me -.- ugh. On friday it wasnt very fun as the other days. I just stayed home and watched movies, nothing special. It was pretty boring. Also yesterday in social studies me and my friend austin took pictures (x. He's ny social studies buddy. We didn't really do anything in social studies, but watch videos. Im really excited for Thursday because in social studies we're going to have a luau! This week my group also workes ID's, and im so thankful I had an opportunity to work candy grams and make up my jobs. I'm so happy I got the chance to do that. It was better then going out and finding another way to make up my missing jobs. Thanks so much.
The highlight of my week was when I got the news that I could work candy grams. I was so happy that I could work! I don't have to find something else to make up my jobs. I was given an opportunity and I took it. I'm so lucky that I was given this chance and now that I don't have to go out and find my own jobs it's easier for me. hopefully I'll get out of the problem before quarter two ends which is only one week left. the news that I get to work candy grams was the best news yet. Another highlight of the week was playing hide and clap in my garage. Even though it was really hot it was fun. It was hard being it though, because they always run around. Also what was bad is that cheana got hurt twice in the place while playing which was a coincidence. But still the game is really fun. They use my beanie to cover their eyes and count to 10 while we run around hoping they won't tag us. It was funny when cheane was it because she kept dancing, and alesia kept jumping over her like track xD. It was funny and fun !
The lesson I learned is to take opportunities when given because you might not have another one. Take the chance people give you because it might be the last. Also it could mean a lot and could change a lot. Just like how Mr.Ing gave my the opportunity to work candy grams and I took it. Hopefully it will make the problem better. Take the opportunity that's given because it could make a big change! Even a small change, but it doesn't matter. Take the opportunity because it could make things better in even the smallest ways. Take it and be happy that you had a chance that could make something better. Like what I did, which I should have done way before with ISA instead of asking stupid questions which ruined my chance. Take the opportunity with no questions asked.

Almost the end!
Hello my lovely bloggers(: hope you all had a good week!! Well this week I had morning in recess music. It was weird because we kept switching from regular music to Christmas music xD and then there was one point we played all ariana grande music. Well, I'm still in the problem, hoping to get out of it soon. I really want Mr.Ings trust back. Well thats that. This week was pretty fun. On monday we played with an egg at emis house with jahlyssa, cheana, and alesia and others. Wr threw the egg up and it almost hit me!!! I hate egg now. Like seriously it almost got on my clothes! Luckily I didn't smell like egg. Also, we found a dead bird on the sidewalk, so emi layed flowers and rocks around it. It was pretty funny if you were there xD ! oh and I got in trouble that night since i got home around 7. On friday my friend shayla found 100$ on the side of the road !!! She was so lucky. So she bought me freal and bought alesia food. I was so surprised since its not everyday you find 100$ on the floor just lying around. She was also willing to give someone 10$ since she didn't buy that person anything ! Just wow, shes really lucky. Also on Friday I got introuble from my dad for going on the roof. Atleast I didn't get hurt doing it! Well today was just a regular day. I went to the swap meet right next to my house. Then to Cheanas house and made fried oreos. Then we made up a game with kendamas called plane race, which is when two people do the airplane trick 10 times and whoever finished first wins. Pretty fun but I end up getting pressured and get nervous. I wish I had a kendama very bad. This week wasn't any different from the other weeks. Just the same with the same people. Except today me and William reunited! Forgot to mention I went to his house today. Also, yesterday cheana got chased by a dog while me and alesia were laughing hard about it xD she ran out like crazy.
The highlight of my week would have to be when cheana got chased by the dog on my street xD she ran out like crazy !! It was really funny. She didn't really see the dog coming xD. This dog always chases people and cars and we always get scared of it. It's a small black/brown chihuahua and its a girl named precious. I thought it was a boy at first actually o.o. weirrrrd. But the real lowlight of my week is when I got thw McDonald's toy cardinals, and when I turned it in he already had it. It just didn't say it on the board. Sadly, I got my hopes up for nothing. Also, I got the redskins. I didn't see mr.ings comment, and when I did I was really shocked and disappointed! I got my hopes up again, and when I opened the toy I actually screamed with joy. But I screamed for nothing because mr.ing already had the redskins. Now theres only 13 left and im determined to get atleast one of them!!!! It cost pretty expensive for just the toy.
The lesson I learned is to not ve a follower. By going to the library and copying what haley did made us followers. I should've done my own thing. Also helping the library didn't do anything but make me a follower. It wasn't extra credit. I asked if I could go to the library not help the library. Also haley did it first and by doing it as well made me a follower. This wasn't extra credit at all. This is leadership not followship. In leadership we take our own actions and do our own things. Not what someone else does. I need to do own thing and not what someone else does. Because by doing that just makes me a follower, and that's not acceptable. So the lesson i learned is to NOT be a follower but to do my own thing.
