Where I am in this leadership journey

I feel like I am doing a good job in leading my self in the right direction. I feel more confident when in the halls, presenting infront of my classes and I'm not afraid of talking to a stranger. This is only possible because of this class an all the opportunities I have had to take lead. The grade 8 retreat helped and so did the assembly and the food bank class to class box handing out. I try without thinking if someone is watching or not. Ian not the type that will just volunteer if there is a camera there or someone. I do it for my personal satisfaction. I like to help others. I this blog is jumping all over the place but it's just my thoughts. Anyways, I am highly self motivated and many of my teachers could say this. I have always been a quiet and shy while I was growing up I would just go where the crowd goes and do what the crowd died but now I stick up for my opinions. If I don't want to what the crowd wants to do I don't do it. But most of the time  my voice isn't heard in a large crowd only the popular ppl get recognized and I get pissed but I don't say anything. Sometimes I have something really good to share and I don't because I haves started to think that I am not going to be heard so why bother trying. But after watching yesterday's videos I feel I should have said what I had to so say. I will from now on. I just remembered a time where ideas were needed and I had a good one but I didn't say it because I was like to myself that let them suffer a bad grade. As if I care. They never listened to me last time and now I'm not going to help them. Ok bye now

Family

I have been having a bad experience with my group. I have been having trouble asking for donations.  I asked  a few people and only got 20$ but some said they don't have any money on them. I felt really disappointed when I asked someone and explained why I was asking for donations they said no thank you. I don't have many family members in surrey so I wasn't able to ask anyone. Anyways I almost teared up when we called the mother of our group because we weren't expecting her to say tht. She didn't want toys or games rather she wanted food and clothing. She said they need food! There was a small pause and I could see in Taylor's eyes that she felt the same. I hope I could get more money for them. We are meeting them on Saturday 20 December. I hope we can give them an awesome christmas.

Progress report

On Tuesday we went to see the salmon in the last few minutes of class. I felt as if I was going to slip and fall in the pond but I was suprised I didn't. Prabhneet and I saw 2 male fish fighting for the female fish up stream. That was some fight we saw. They were jumping and bottom f eachother. It was hilarious but I wish we could see who would win but the bell was about to ring. I was able to take pictures and make videos of that fight. I hope I could go back but I don't want to go alone I'm still scared of falling. 😕
