Now enough with the horsing around and let's get down to business to defeat THE HUNS.
This is the most volunteering I've ever done in a period of two months and twelve days. And I'm proud of myself. Even though my schedule did begin to over-pile, the outcome of all these opportunities was enough to get me back on my feet again. It hurts me to say that I am not active out in the community but like I said earlier, it has only been two months and twelve days. I still have the rest of my life before me to get out and boogey with the community. Currently, I rely on our class to provide service for others and every now and then, I do think about hunting down some opportunities that are floating around out there but I've just never gotten the time to actually initiate anything. Though I haven't been active outside the school this year that doesn't mean I wasn't in the past. I've helped out at other school's carnivals and events such as the Walk for Smiles (With my buddies Cathy and Jessica) and I've done some farm work with my mom picking blueberries during the summer. I also took care of my sisters cat for free if that counts. And like.. I wash the dishes.
My parents have often told me that I was too shy and that I need to learn to speak up but now, now I can rub it in their faces. Last year in my third year of high school was when I began my leadership adventure and it started off slow and steady. All the other years prior to that I was a rock who just sat in a chair. But this year I took this class and it penetrated my rock exterior. A little exaggerated but you get the idea. Looking back at the grade eight retreat was a memorable day for me. I believe that may have been the first time I've been given the responsibility to guide a horde of my peers. And it went surprisingly well and I enjoyed putting a smile on their faces. Plus the food bank was another significant day. It was my second time there and not only did I become closer with some of my classmates but I was able to help the community in some way.
A reason why I took this course. To offer a helping hand no matter how small it may be. Everything we've done so far has impacted me in some way, molding me into a better person and improving my weaknesses.
And I bring forth a piece of positive energy in this class.
If you want to give me a higher grade, go right ahead. I'm not stoppin' ya.
Jk.
But I am truly thankful we have a course like this that exists. It opens a lot of doors for us students and opens our eyes and our heart. haha.
I just wanted to say that I AM in Community Volunteer Club and there was a meeting today at lunch and I was planning to attend. I was thinking about it all morning but then I forgot and missed it. But there's still next Monday. ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ
