M.A.D - beginning and final sketches

 at this moment in time for M.A.D i am sketching a thing for racial equality which is so far going... interesting to say the least but i took a photo of my current starting sketches so i have an idea of what i'm trying to draw. ill update this with more once i continue.

Year 9 - GAME OF LIFE

 on the 9th of april i went to a career event near the A&P showgrounds, the event is all about future career options you could take.

 i was mostly wandering around the place with some friends looking at all the different careers you could have, during it i got a spoon made for kiwi fruit cutting and a little bug-light thingy

overall the event was pretty enjoyable, the people talking about the careers were very nice and explained it simply and knowing the details of how you can get a career you may have thought was much more difficult at first is really cool.

Year 9 - Resilience

 in this blog, ill be writing down three STRENGTHS i think i show and have.

1. ZEST: zest is being energetic and excited in any situation and not approaching a task/activity halfhearted, i usually show this strength on most days at least when i'm not too tired 

2. HUMOR: humor is being amusing or making people laugh even in difficult times or situations, this can also sometimes contribute to team building. however, many of the times i have been humorous during a task, hasn't really been very helpful for who im talking too as i end up distracting them and getting off task

3. GRATITUDE: gratitude is showing the fact that you are thankful for the things you recieve and gain over school, home or anytime during your life. i show this when receiving the tools i require for a task when i do not have it after possibly forgetting or losing it and many other places apart from at school

My year so far - Year 9

At the moment, the year is going very well for me, this is because all of the classes (except impact project) have at least 3 or 2 of my best friends in them, and it doesn't distract me since i can just move away or continue focusing on what i'm working on which isn't hard. I also enjoy all of them, most of which focus on online activities which are quite easy and fast for me, and 1 PE class with nearly all my best friends making it much better and preferable. 

PREP week 6

1. How do you think you have used your time today? i think i have used my time a bit wasteful due to being kicked out of the workshop for breaking something 2. What has been your biggest achievement today? there were no really big achievements this week of PREP 3. Name someone in your class (from another group) who you think is making a cool product. What is their product and why do you think it will sell? i think that raman's product is cool for the fact that it is a driftwood candle holder and it will sell well because of that 4. What do you need to do to make sure you will be on task for next week? be more focused on my work by not getting distracted by my friends or group members
