A Minnie Story of "trish_the_dish"

This week was just filled with excitement about Winter Break coming up. But it’s like about a week away and sometimes it feels so far away, especially when we have two tests and one big project due beforehand. Procrastination and determination are both not impossible to defeat over a certain period. Yet, with the group I have for my Romeo and Juliet project, it’s kind of difficult to forget that procrastination is the least of my worries. If you think about it, people can be determined about everything they do. That’s something I will definitely try, even though this is my second-to-last blog post. Assertiveness is not the easiest virtue for me to attain. I guess it’s just a habit not to expose myself all the time because of things that have happened to me before, 😕possible reason why I didn’t join Debate😕. The thing is... I don’t really like people just staring at me when I present something. I think I’ve spilled the beans a bit too much. This blog is really starting to get...

This week went pretty slow. It was only Tuesday when it was supposed to be Thursday. Our Greek teacher, Ms. Galouka, dumped us with homework like its already Winter Break. The interim progress reports are coming out on Monday, and I’m like frightened. I just noticed how crazy this week has been. Hopefully, next week is a bit more peaceful. Also, I forgot to tell you guys that AP World students have a 3-page book report/critique due the Friday before the break. I was expecting Winter Break to work on it. Well, here’s the perfect way to work on procrastination. I guess determination plays out by me not giving up on such work. Anyway, this blog has not been going as I planned. So, where was I? My virtues, right. If you have read this blog and you have a suggestion for assertiveness, please tell me! Bye!

I expected so much work for this week, especially when coming back from Thanksgiving Break. But luckily, that wasn’t what happened. I actually have no idea how I worked on any of my virtues. Which is very surprising to the fact that one of my virtues is determination. Guess I should’ve been more determined on improving to be a slightly good person. Get it? Anyways, that was pretty much what this week was really about. Never mind, I forgot about Friday. Friday was a special day for the Euro Challenge people. 10 of us had a chance to go to FIU and literally miss a whole day of school.  Even better, we got to leave about 1 to 2 hours before school actually ended that day. Yay! And Emma made that day extra special! See ya later!                                          

This week be pretty chill. All we had was really two days of school and work. So, there wasn’t really much procrastinating to work on. Actually, there was. During Thanksgiving Break, I had the opportunity to finish my homework earlier and enjoy the rest of the weekend. Which, in fact, worked out. Yay me! On the other hand, I had no idea how to improve my determination and assertiveness this week. But that’s fine; I have many more weeks to come. Going back, Wednesday was not at all what I expected. We got time off of school to socialize with friends, which was nice. See you guys on Monday. Enjoy your times with family. Be thankful for everything you got. Happy Thanksgiving!

This week was great! If you didn’t get it, that was supposed to sound sarcastic. Well, it could’ve been amazing for others. On the other hand, from midway until the end of the week was absolutely depressing. When we were choosing our groups for our English project, I was like the fourth member accepted into a certain group. Guess what happened after? You guessed right (or not), I was KICKED OUT! Although I will not name names, I will tell you guys the cause for such an act. The motive was that they wanted an equal number of both genders. I also did notice a few students being left out; that was probably why Ms. Gonzalez changed her mind about choosing groups. Even after that, we had the opportunity to trade with others. Anyways, if we talk about assertiveness, I never really speaking my mind out, even if it’s fighting for something. I’m pretty sure that didn’t play out in the scenario above. Now, in terms of determination, I guess I was determined to study for a Greek vocabulary quiz ...
