this week...

This week we had to plan a field trip for class, though it was kind of hard when the internet kept shutting down, like it always does. My partner was Shelby and we came up with the idea of Disney YES program. It was a good idea until we realized it would be around 140 a person which is obviously too expensive.

I also dropped out of band this week. Maybe it's a stupid decision, but I know it's one that I had to make to better my future. I was gettin nowhere and the band at McKeel is kind of like an embarrassment, no matter how mean that sounds.

The end of the second nine weeks ended, which is good since all the finals are over!
Third nine weeks, here we come.

This Week....

This week we prepared for our mid-terms. Though I'm a pretty good student, mid-terms really freak me out at times. I get nervous over all the cummulative information we have to cover. From day one to now, we learned so much stuff and now we have to review all of it. I have a mid-term in almost every class but music, so I have to study for all of them.

I also had multiple projects due, and a lot of them were worth a majority of my grade.

We have been working on teaching flyers and lesson plans for Education. The school for the flyer I'm doing is FSU, and I did a 7th grade class for my lesson plan. We did a circling main ideas inside of a news article.

This Week...

This week I was absent because I was attending the All-State Band. It was really stressful because I had to take off school and go to Tampa for 3 days to play in the band. On Thursday, we had re-seating auditions, and I was really nervous for that. Out of the 15 in my section, I got second which is alright, I suppose. After that, we had a 9 hour rehearsal that made me really tired.

On Friday, we came back and had a rehearsal from 8:00 - 11:00 and then we did it from 1:00 - 5:00, but our director held us over another 45 minutes, which was aggravating since I had been there all day!

On Saturday, we had our performance which went well. They said we were the best there had been for 7 years! All-State was a great experience.
