This week.

okay so this week was not like the others. to be honest, i thought this week was going to be the start of a new beginning. but it wasnt. this week was actually good. it had its REALLY bad, end of the world kind of moments, but then towards the end of it, it was a good week. i learned alot of things, and i really got to learn more about everything.

Monday...- this was the day i decided to quit. ALOT of the adults believe i was influenced by the other period or the 8th graders, but i wasnt. i dont think people will every believe me when i say that. haha. its just hard for everyone i think. why? because everyone has different perspectives. adults will never think like kids ever again. i think that once your childhood is done, and you become an adult, and get a job, and start a family, you'll never have the same thoughts as a kid ever again. and same with kids. until we get to experience adult hood, we will never think like an adult does. anyways, on monday morning, i walked off the bus with my friend shanice, and we were ready to walk in and do it. so we walked off the bus, i looked at her and i said, "this is it." we walked into the room, and we joined up with Anne... the three of us then went up to our teacher and said, "is it to late to take our yellow cards?" o ya and whats a yellow card? a yellow card was introduced to us at the beginning of the 2nd quarter i think... so the yellow card is a slip that we have to sign, and its our way out of leadership. when we first had it, it was taped to our desk and our teacher told us that was our way out. so ya. we asked for our  yellow cards, and he simply gave it to us. shayna (my group leader) was sitting on the desk, and she said, " heighlee are you sure??" and i turned to her and replied, " yea" after he gave us our cards, we said thank you, and then exited the class. i felt so accomplished. for a a second, i seriously thought it was a dream. i coudnt beleive it. so then the day went on, we found our new classes, and then we THOUGHT it was done. we thought that we made it to our new classes, and we thought we were done with leadership.but we wernt.

tuesday...- that morning was fun ;3  me, shannice, shaela, and anne went to go get mcdees for breakfest ;D it was soo good ;O i had a hash brown and ya. it was super uper delicious. ahah anyways... we THOUGHT it was gona be a good day...but it wasnt ;/  we ran into dr.barton and it destroyed everything. dr. barton is the vp. we got questioned by him, but we didnt think it was gonna lead to us being where we are today. then the day went on, we went to homeroom, then about 15 min. before the end of home room, my counselor came to get me. he tells me dr barton isnt okay with our request and he wants to speak to us. then he led me and anne to dr.bartons office. thats when me and anne was joined together with shanice and shaela in dr.bartons office. i was so mad at the moment. i felt like just bursting out and telling him how hard it is in leadership and how much i struggle. but i didnt. we talked and talked about problems, and we told him as much as we could at the moment. after that, i thought it was settled and i thought he was going to say right then right there, if we were aloud to have our new class rooms or not. but he didnt. instead of telling us his decision, he said " lets go talk to mr.ing" i didnt know we had to go have some big meeting! I thought that was going to be all but nooooo. i was so scared, chills ran through my body and i got goose bumps instantly. we all walked slowly over to the class and then we all sat down. instead of explaining the whole meeting to you guys, i'll sum it up. we talked, we went out side while dr.barton decided, dr.barton called us back in, he told us his decision was for us to stay in leadership, we cried, he just got up and left, we talked and pleaded to the councelors and our teacher, then we went to the councilors office, and then it was final. we were offically back in leadership.walking out of the councilors office to my period 4 was the most depressing moment of my life. it felt like my life was over. but then i had to think for the rest of the day.... by the end of the day, i came to the conclusion that this isnt the end of the world. i also noticed other people go through harder things everyday, and this is nothing compared to that. so i realized, i just had to live with it.

wednesday...- this was a good day :) the day was like any other leadership day but better. we had intramurals and it all went good. i rehabilitated to leadership, and it went well... (:

thursday...-same as the other day, it went good, we had intramurals, and it went well (:

friday...- just like the couple of days before, it was good, we had intramurals, it went well, but the main highlight of the day, i realized leadership was good for me and i am better off in leadership.

so when it was the first couple of days of the week, i thought it was the worst week ever. but towards the end, i realized, leadership is where i belong. before i decided to quit i didnt stop and think what im leaving behind. not just the "privileges", the people, the way things work, the jobs, and everything else. it was alot to give up after all the hard work and the hard things we been through. thats why im kind of glad dr.barton said we had to stay in leadership. when i came back to leadership, i was thankful for everything we get to have and do in there. and espicially the people that are in there. im thankful for everyone in there because they all helped me learn something new, or the helped me improve on something. overall, im glad im in leadership now. because it helps me with being more repsonsible, and it teaches/teached me alot.
