Leadership Update - 

~What have you done?

  A few days ago when Ms.Fantinato was here, she asked us what we were going to do before we graduate. With my friends, we are planning to make some videos. 

~What do you plan on doing? 

   Along with my friends. Cherry-Lyn, Cherilyn, and Jade, the four of us plan to create videos using our YouTube account we plan to make. The videos will inspire many and send out a good message using music and art.  

~Has it changed or evolved from your original idea? 

   My original idea (mentioned in "Leadership Blog Post #2") was to teach art to younger children. Now, my idea evolved to an even bigger one; a goal that I can reach with a group of friends. With my original idea, art and my friend, Jade's idea being music, we decided that why don't we try combining both? Later on, we decided to work with two other people; Cherry-Lyn and Cherilyn. 

~Where do you expect to be by the end of May?

  My group mates and I expect to have many videos prepared to share with people, so that they can feel inspired and become a leader when they are in my position.

Random Acts of Kindness - 

Reflection on Past or Potential Random Acts of Kindness

     Thinking back into the past, I can convey some random acts of kindness I have done in my  life time. Whether it was helping my classmates with homework, or even holding a door for a person, each act counts; even if it is small. Of course, I'm not the only person who gives kindness because there are many other people I see everyday show that they care. Sometimes I hear people complimenting or sharing with one another. I become inspired and very happy when it occurs. 

 

  A few days ago during religion, my teacher, Mr Stamegna, showed us a video to the class and I about random acts of kindness. In one of the videos, a man was holding up a sign saying "free hugs". The man got fined for the sign, but that didn't stop him. He held a petition saying that he needed signatures to allow "free hugs". With just a week or two, kind and caring people decided to help, and the man finally had enough signatures. I think this video made an impact on me because it inspired me to be more aware of my surroundings. It taught me clearly to see if anyone needed help, I'd help them.
