QTR BLOG 4: the finale (almost!)

 qtr blog #4: the finale (almost!)

its grad season! lock in dont die yacob! -jacob batoon 2024

overview of the quarter!!!!

this quarter was so crazy.. we began with the orientation craziness and bro like it wasn't as bad as last year considering we did the fashion show differently, as the dance thing would've been so dookie doodoo especially with only TWO GUYS... but thank goodness orientation went smoothly, in fact the whole quarter went smoothly and im really glad about that!.. next up was the fourpeat and i know i talked about this a lot but dude it was definitely THE definer of 4th quarter.. it was so hype and i don't know about you guys but dance comp to me was one of the most magical things i've witnessed, especially since it was on a weekend, too..... wowza wowzers. what a fun quarter... also yeah grad's still comin' up so be wary of that i guess :3

highlights/lowlights!

highlights of this quarter include dance comp, orientation, getting good grades, and just being done with everything, as thank GOD the year's coming to an end.. i came home with a headache today and sitting down writing this is so... unlikeable im like so tired. anyway so moving on im so grateful we're like almost done with things and since tomorrow's grad IM LOVING IT AAHH THE SCHOOL YEARS OVERRR... and also thank god i got decent grades unlike last quarter, since like... last quarter was a 3.5 but im GRADUATING... with a 3.8... thank GOD.. haha anyway so for actual highlights this quarter one was dance comp, since dance comp was like the best thing that happened this year because for one, it was super fun and the FOURPEAT is the single most memorable experience this year, and if bridge me knew that we would get the fourpeat, he would've probably freaked out internally... and also nobody would believe him soo yeah lmao. next up being orientation, another integral part of leadership and if anythign one of the biggest events that leadership has to do, and thank god it's over with, and since it's the first thing that we had to get done with during 4th quarter, it wasn't that hard especially since the dance part was finished.. and thank the lords that we got to experience orientation!!!... and yeah. thats it guys. OH AND OF COURSE ALOHA DINNER!! aloha dinner was so fun and one of if not my favorite moment of this year... and like im tired so i dont wanna write about this too much but it happened and i hope that next year's is fun! :3

oh god lowlights.... only one lowlight this quarter and that was my degrading work ethic... now i know it's getting better because i'm doing this right now and not laying in bed and man oh man i think that it's a problem i hope to fix in high school as it's gonna put me in such a dump during high school as it's super stressful and un fun... at least i know that what im doing is the right thing to do and stuff and yeah uhhgh im so tired

lesson of the quarter is....

to never underestimate the possibility that things can come crashing down, because as we all know (and i hope some of us do relate), we all have that lingering thought that basically says that "i can do this later" or stuff like that, but that can lead to a complete shutdown in your grades/school work and thus everything can come crashing down, especially with those who take their grades very seriously, so.... my message to those reading this is to never listen to your procrastination voice, stop it and do your work even if you don't want to.. and if it's not healthy you may procrastinate but like dont do it so often to where it becomes a habit and know that if you do so enough then you gonna get COOKED... so yeah ! (the lesson comes from me saying that i need to lock in this quarter and i clearly did but like not as much as i wanted)
