Proactive or Procrastination?





I think that I am proactive because I get all my work in on time. I also think I am a proactive person because I do my work with almost a few days before and even if it is not required to type it I type it and figure out a  way to do it with good quality. I even am good during class and don't disrupt the class and do all my class work. I feel that I am proactive because I do good things and don't want to disrupt make anyone not learn anything.I love being a proactive person because you will get way better grades than  the people that procrastinate.




My level of productivity of is in the middle of high and low. Most of the time I have a lot of free time but when I have homework and I have two days to do it I usually don't do it until the second day unless it is really important. When I am at home I get straight to doing my chores so I have a lot of time to do my homework and then if I am lucky  I have time to go to the beach with my friends or play outside. When I am in school I get my work done around five to ten minutes before the bell rings so I can get to my next class or break on time to do my do now or get a few minutes more of lunch and recess to socialize with my friends. When I have really big projects for social studies I usually do it right before it is due while doing a little bit each day.


The thing I would change about my work habits would probably be to stay focused because that is the main reason I don't get most of my homework done. I try to start on my homework than my friend goes outside to play and then I want to play with her than I have to stay up late and do my homework and get up really late like around 6:30 and I am rushing around to get to school on time. I could also start working on doing my work a few days before it is do so than I have free time to do fun stuff. I would do this by making a reminder to myself that I need to do my work before I get to do fun stuff.
I would try to stay focused by thinking "You can go play outside after you finish this, if you stay really focused you can finish this in less than 20 minutes if you don't than you could be here for 2 hours. When I am at school I am proactive although when at home I procrastinate because there is more distractions at home than there is at school.

Lesson Learned

Week 6-7


The most interesting part of my project is learning how to work together to make something amazing because most of the time you can screw up on something it can be anything like having the mic sound be too high and the sound becomes static then you would pretty much have to do you interview again.So far my project is doing well and we have way more to do we are like barely half way there.For me something that would stand out would be the teamwork and how much cooperation we had since our project is due next week and the critique begins this week 9/18 we have been picking the paste up to be way faster.

The biggest road block my team handled was having to redo our interview on our interviewee. We came into this problem because our camera mic was not working and the sound was too high.Since our sound was too high the interview came out like static because of this we had to ask our interviewee if it was okay to come back and redo her interview.She was so cool and said yes, when we came back we made sure that the mic was working and the last time came out great.When you come to roadblocks with teams all you have to do is have good teamwork and you will pass that roadblock with ease.


The most valuable part of film making is knowing your camera. When you know your camera,film making gets much easier because you know what type of mode your supposed to be in and you know where to change the volume. Since we didn't know our camera that much our first round through doing interviews didn't do so well.The next time we did interviews we knew our camera way better so when we did the interviews the interviews turned out pretty good.Now I have learned that when you do not know the piece of technology you are using you could end up in big trouble because you didn't operate it correctly.Thanks to Hiki No  I  have learned a huge lesson have great teamwork and know how to use the things you are given to work with.

Back To School

My biggest moment would probably be getting into GT and Honors because the past few years I have been doing really easy stuff and I need more of a challenge.Getting into GT is a huge moment for me because it also gives you a challenge. Getting into GT was an awesome thing because the GT program give students a challenge. Since I got into Honors I have not been able to just cruise I have been able to actually get a little challenge.

Somethings that I will do to be successful is turning in my homework on time,coming to class before the bell rings and paying attention in class. Turning in my homework on time will help me be successful because if your homework comes in late your grade will come down and that will bring you down.Coming to class on time helps me to be very successful because walking in late means you probably just skipped something important.Last paying attention to me is probably the thing that would make you the most successful because if you don't pay attention in class you could miss your homework assignment or something your supposed to do.This was at the beginning of the year so wasn't really into what it was supposed to be.
