Career Day

     This week was pretty much all about Orientation in Leadership. Every Homeroom this week, we were practicing our dance and Miah was our choreographer. I had to work on both lip-syncing and dancing for the girls song and boys song. Not to mention that I have to do other dances like We Go Together. But anyways, this week, Period 5 had Music. We had no shifts because we wouldn't do shifts until everyone came early. But Miah kept on coming late for whatever reason, so that's one thing that she needs to work on. I did a lot of announcements this week and that was pretty easy compared to going on TV. Now for my classes, Period 1 (Math): Multiplying and Diving Rational Numbers and word problems. Period 2 (Science): Learning how to use a Microscope. Period 3 (Basic Keyboarding): We are working on a PowerPoint presentation about technology that changed the world. And we learned how to use graphs and digital presentations. Period 4 (English): Reading springboard topics like "Why violent video games should be banned!". Period 5 (Leadership): We were practicing our Orientation dances but Deriecka was gone almost the whole week. So we had to show her the differences that were made to each dances. Period 6 (Social Studies): We were talking about our History Day project topic and we were shown various topics from different videos that Mr. Chong showed us. I almost forgot to mention that we had career day this week and I got the private investigator. I got to learn things from him that I never knew or didn't realize.

     Highlights of the week are: I came early everyday for this whole week, I didn't get sick from anyone because that was something that we kept on talking about, and my Music announcements are really good. The music announcements were always about the hike, team picture taking, and track sign ups. Lowlights of the week are: It kept on raining pretty hard on Thursday so we couldn't do anything on Thursday for track, but I did get the forms. We didn't have shifts because we couldn't come on time. And I didn't remember a part of Beauty School Dropout.

     My lesson of the week is take your time doing things because the longer you work on something, then your work could be of better quality. If you just add in extra time to check your work and make sure you did some things right, the more your work will pay off. These are one of the things I learned while listening to the private investigator. He was really good at interpreting things easily and had a very motivational lesson. He kept on talking about things like this lesson and I learned a lot from him. It was a good thing I got him for career day because he was pretty funny and very patient, I wanted to take my time instead of rushing so I don't panic and make a mistake.

    The magic note I chose this week was Deriecka's because her magic note was very inspiring and it gave me a clue to what I must've been doing right and wrong. Her magic note was great and it also told me I'm doing a good job, and I was improving. Those are the reasons why I did choose Deriecka's magic note and it was really nice. There was a little more to it and it was really touching.
