4th, and Final Quarter Blog!

     This is the 4th and Final quarter. This quarter felt nonexistent because of how much time passed by. Taking pictures of the 8th graders for slideshow around the mid 20 day mark, to writing my semi-last blog (there's also yearly) at the 3 day countdown. If you ask me, I'm not ready to leave leadership or move on to eighth grade. It won't be the same and I still haven't improved as much as I should have. But that's one way to continue my endless journey towards my goal of "self-confidence" and "time management", but I'll discuss more about it for my yearly blog. For now let's focus more on important things this quarter. It could be orientation, which was a pretty successful part of this quarter, having to hold up banners for our speakers or even doing the dances for fashion show. There's also yearbook passing out, which only lasted for a day but it was something. And awards night, which was something that was well 50/50, the night itself was okay, some mistakes or misconceptions but the next day was more of the concern for us. I feel like that no matter what, I'll be able to find what I really needed in leadership, because for some reason, I wasn't able to myself.
     Highlights of the final quarter: Our orientation was great. We didn't have as much mistakes as we could have made, our speakers were doing a good job, our dances were decent, and our tours were pretty good. I also think that awards night was pretty successful. There wasn't a lot of obvious mistakes, there were some timing issues with the students on stage and having them stay there long enough to take pictures though. Our Gradution Program and Slideshow is finally done and now we have to wait on Gradution. And this quarter had a lot more of things but these are things that I really remember clearly, other than the elections we had today.
     Lesson of the Quarter: There's many lessons I could choose from this quarter, whether it's being too complicated when I think, or being an insolent indi.. I mean not overthinking, I think I could say it's pretty much both. I need to stop thinking about things too much and actually listen instead of thinking, because I've done this the whole school year and it hasn't worked out for me, so that's something I learned this quarter and is very important for me because I need to just stop overthinking and making myself look stupid.
     Something I need to work on to be more successful? Well I just said it in the last paragraph (lesson learned), but to get more in depth I guess, I can say focus. I need to focus on what I do so I don't forget about something, or lose that trait of thought. There's a lot of things that it could be interpreted into when it comes to me but that's what I think because of the fact that most of things like this if not all are problems about focusing. So that's something that is incredibly important in my opinion because it's become very apparent.
