Talent Show!

          Talent show started 1 day ago, Monday, but today is Tuesday, we preformed today. When i mean we that means with shayna, jolene, megan, and heighlee. It was fun, well I guess, the people who performed before us was chachie and melani, sanita and i think her name is irias, i don’t know but they were really good, all of them and i was so surprise by there talent, but before today, yesterday me and my group didn't perform so we had to help out with the whole occasion which was talent show, some of us had different jobs like jolene had to make sure she had recorded the performances, and shayna had to do the sound box and the rest of us performed or we sat on the side and make sure that people who were there was eating lunch, we didn't really have to do this but we could if we wanted to. ok now back to our performance today. it was a fun experience to be in front of the whole 8th grade and the whole 7th grade, just luckily they weren’t on the same time. I felt so nervous, maybe it was just me or the rest of us had it too but i dont really know but what i do know is i wasn’t the only one to mess up but maybe i messed up the most and it was really same because some of my friends were watching and they said they will support me like jessa and jeszarrae and jazzelle, but prya said shes going to laugh, but i know she was joking, well i don’t know that for sure, this experience has been a new one, even though we did this last year it just feels diffrent and im just happy, well maybe the word is overwhelmed that this crazy experience was over and im just really glad that this is over and im happy that i got over it, well that’s it.

Video essay,

hmmm, remember my hero, Arlyn, my sister. Well i just made a video essay about her and why she is my hero. this video is part of the 5th slide i talked about that was going to be blank, but now we have a video in it, yay! this video explained, like what i said earlier, why shes my hero and it had to be nothing we talked about in our blog, or on our powerpoint. We also added a new thing to this essay, we added what we will say to them it we told them that they are our hero. this was a great experience for me because i never have any homework dealing with this much technology. leadership helped me do this. i also think this was a fun homework doing because we realesed our fealings to the person that we think is our hero, wait let me refrase that, "that we know is our hero" well its because we never really get to say anything and this video helps us explain what we really feel and really want to say as the person being modeled after or the person looking at role model(s). this video essay was to be 2 minutes long or what mr.ing said no longer then 10 minutes and no shorter then 2 minutes. this was kind of hard because it was really akward looking at a camera and talking to it. But other than that it was fun. Now its time to do a presentation in front of the whole class. awww. lol
ok bye.

Hero Powerpoint!, ^___^

          In our leadership class we have different periods and my period for this class is 6. for the past 3 weeks mr.ing talked about heros and if we have time we will do a  powerpoint presentation on them and so we did. the first step before we had to do our powerpoint is we need to do a blog with three paragraphs explaining who our hero is, what makes all heroes and characteristics of heroes, and last why they are your hero or what considers them to be your hero. the next step was to make the powerpoint with 6 slides and pictures for slides two, three, and four. this assignment was due today the 21st of november and i started this on the 17th. to be honest i really like this activity because you get to talk about who your hero is and how your hero is important to you.
           As of now im going to talk to u guys about the different slides i put and the themes i chose. The first slide was a title page and we had to include our heroes name and our name as the author of the power point and also we had to put the backgroung and i chose the chery blossom background but i will talk to you about that later! For the second slide we were supose to introduce our hero without saying why there your hero, this slide includes there personal traits, background, and what they are like. For the third and fourth slide i introduced my hero and why shes my hero, just so everyone knows my hero is my sister, arlyn, nut anyway in thoes two slides i talked about why shes my hero and gave two reasons for each slide, to be honest i dont think that only ywo reasons are enough, just like mr.ing would say if there really your hero you should have more thoughts about them. The next slide was kept blank for my video essey that i will blog about i think on friday but i will also add more deatails there, ok so the last slide, the last slide is just summarizing everything that we wrote and this page i just put like this was all the reasons why i consider her as my hero i put this because its true all what i say is about my hero! So the over all theme i chose was the cherry blossom tree i used this because it reminds me of my sister alot because i always see her in pink with like flowers on the side or sometimes just really bright colors. i think this represents her in a great way because she is a very bright person, like me, we get that from each other, but yeah this also says much about the way she acts like you never know which way she goes like the tree branch in the sakura tree there are never any branches taht are identical to each other.
          I really like this assignment because it represents the person who you look up to and it represents the person who you want to be, i want to be like my sister, a very honest, nice, but straight out person who is very strong and could handle anything, i mean who doesn't want to be like her!, she has the personalities of a real person should be!

bullying assembly

          On friday there was an assembly about bullying and cyberbullying, at first, before the assembly started we had to get out of period 1 ten minutes before it ended so that we can help out all of our jobs were the same to get the classes and get them to sit down, it was for the 8th grade classes they could sit on the chairs but the 7th graders had to sit on the floor but if there was space then they could have sit on the chairs but there was only little bit of seets left so only a certain amount like about 10-15 7th grade students could sit down on the chairs. most of the time the students wern't following directions it was really irrataiting because they couldnt follow simple directions and at the end it was us as a leadership class getting into trouble not them nut it was ok because we knew that it wasnt our fault. that day was a very interesting day because we didn't know it waould be a really big deal of how we would get into trouble but it was ok because again we knew it wasnt us and most of us knew what we did wrong and how we could fix our mistakes. this day was also very funny because people like sheala, tamera, king, melani, and the 7th grade leadership was there acting out as bullies and kids that are getting bullied. this is the most funniest thing that happened that day because of sheala it turned out more funny because she told us they didn't have any lines and they didn't get to practice. one of the lines that i cant forget that she said was "why are you guys going to the library you guys aren't even smart" it was soooooo funny i couldn't handle it, i kept laughing. this day was very interesting, wait let me rephrase that, this was a very interesting week. all of the laughing, the yelling, the probations, and the assembly that we had. Well thats it i guess till my next blog!

My Hero

         




                 I think everyone in there life has someone to look up too in other words “hero” I have a hero, someone very special and close to me, its that girl in the picture, shes my hero and also shes my sister, Arlynmae Ramos, I consider her as my hero because she is a person I grew up with. She always checks up on me and if I have any problems she always says shes here for me if I need to talk to her. My sister takes time to be herre for me even though she has a job she always finds time to talk to me about my day and talk to me about what is was like being in 8th grade and in leadership, I don’t think that I’m the only one she does this to, she also does this with all her friends and my mom, she loves haning out with them. Some characteristics that she has is she is a very strong person she doesn’t like when people treat other people mean and she hates bullies, she is strait forward with what she wants if she doesn‘t like someone she says it to there faces, I think this is what makes her unique, she is very honest she hates when she lies also she thinks its better if she says things strait up before a lie leads to another lie, she is a strait A student and she hates getting B’s because she strives for the best with what she wants, and she is a very friendly, it doesn’t seem like she is at times because she is always saying things and she looks kind of mean but I swear if you get to know her you’ll love her like how I do. What makes her a good sister and a good hero is because she never means to hurt anyone on purpose, if she gets mad at someone she has an absolute reason why, Me and my sister has very different types of personalities, to be honest me and arlyn don’t really get along that well its just because our personal characteristics don’t match as much as we look nothing alike! I know that we both have our differences but at the end of the day we love each other no matter what.
              
                  A few characteristics that all heroes should have are being nice, being friendly, and being a person that wants to show everyone there old enough to be a good role model, and a person that you can trust no matter what the situation was, they will always be with you no matter what. I believe this because they are the ones that you look up too and they people that you care about and want to be like when you get older.

                  My sister has all of these characteristics a real hero should have she keeps me at a level where a person should be at, she is not only considered a hero she is a family member, she is my sister. she always gets mad at me but I know the reason why, its because she loves me. Even though we don’t get along, even though we always fight even though we have only one parent here with us she considers to be a second parent I have she is like another mom of mines. When I grow older ans when she grows older to I always want to be like her no matter what I always want to be with her because shes my hero!
