Vacay to Earlay

Is Summer coming  along to fast? Vacay to Earlay!

So we have Been told that summer is right around the corner but now we are getting a little of track and heading to the road that leads to summer.  Our blog topic is 3 ways we can keep our head in school and Media and not just about Summer.

The first way I think that I can prevent my self from thinking about summer and what I'm going to do, I focus in my 4th QTR project, also my project in Science, and English.  Even though summer is really close we still need to focus on our work in school before we can do anything else.

The second way I prevent myself is I have to focus in Finals, homework, projects,regular tests, a
Stories.etc... Instead of thinking about summer I have a lot of thinking I need to do work from other classes and focus on the work the teachers give me for example, this blog.  This is homework from Media also my 4th QTR Project is homework but it's done in class.  For media I would like to stop procrastinating and do my blogs earlier.

And last even if I'm not thinking about summer probably others will too. So to prevent that I would say stuff about school or Media, like blogs or homework and other things to get their mind off summer!

So in conclusion, I need to focus on school instead of summer because I still have a lot of things  to do before summer Vacay starts.

4th QTR Project Update!

5/18/2014

4th QTR projects almost over!

So our topics is our 4th Qtr update.  This yesterday I just filmed our last shat that we needed to complete our whole music video.  Our projects are all do on Wednesday and since we are kind of done we need to make a little tweaks in it to make it better!

So since i hardly wrote about my 4th QTR project, might as well I start here. So my Partner is Alaysia.  We are doing a song by Jordan Sparks "One Step At a Time", in our Music Video we will shot three scenarios happening one is when there is a new girl on school and she tries to make friends but everyone ignores her, a second scenario is a boy trying to ride a bike for the first time.  Unfortunately he didn't have any padding and not even a helmet so it kind of got changed,  and in our last scenario we show a girl trying to shoot a hoop but fails a couple times.

There are some parts that we had to re-film like the basketball.  It normally suppose to be a boy who was shooting the hoop but he wasn't wearing any shoes and kind of messed things up a bit, so I decided to do the basketball one instead and Alaysia does the Bicycle scene (note:never use tripod 8) Alaysia said that the top was shaky.  Then we had to re-film the lip syncing parts also, and then we had to film the same people again for their footsteps at the beginning and middle parts of the video. 

In this Music video me and Alaysia worked really good, we got along and agreed with each other.  Well at certain times.  But we did everything that we had to do and since projects are due this Wednesday I think that once I bring in the film that I had to do yesterday I think we are going to alright since we are kind of done with our whole music video.

So in conclusion, I think we will finish our 4th QTR Project and turn it in by this Wednesday!

Computer Problems

5/11/2014

Have you ever had a computer and then you can't log in or something.  Well that happened to me right now, I was getting all scared over my computer because there are pictures form my SD card that I erased, video's and slideshows I have, and other things on my computer.  My computer isn't a MAC Laptop even though how much I wish it was, but an hour ago my computer couldn't log me in because of some kind of reason and it said " The User Profile Service service failed the logon. User profile could not be loaded." I was over reacting until something called "Youtube" helped me and then my problems were all solved.

And also there is a quote for problems that I learned from STN in the breakout sessions, "There are never problems, there are always solutions!"

Family Night!

Family Night, is around the corner and the media kids needs to use video's that they did this whole school year!  I was thinking of doing my 4th QTR project that me and my partner Alaysia have been doing together.  I don't want to use my other projects and i'll tell you why.

I don't want to use my 1st QTR Project because it didn't have a lot of b-roll in it and should've had more in it, also that it may have a lot of interviews to e it didn't really tell much of a story because of the few b-roll we had.

I don't want to use my 2nd QTR Project because it needs to be improved because it had black spots in it, also we had a little extra b-roll on it, b-roll that didn't belong in the video.  I would change it if I can.

And I wouldn't  use my 3rd QTR Project because one, it's short, it was only 30 seconds it's a PSA. And I don't want to use any of our STN Practice either but I have no problem using the video we won at STN.

To sum it all up, I want to use my 4th QTR Project or even the PSA we won at STN for Family Night.

Best and Worst Times

4/27/2014

0 Comments

 
What my best and worst parts of the trip were? Well the worst part about my trip was making my classmate cry, and the the best part of the trip was going to places like Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Universal Studios, and the last best thing on the trip was taking home honorable mention in the PSA Competition!

So the worst part about the trip was making my classmate cry.  We were on a tour at Universal Studios and I noticed that he weren't going on the rides that we were going on since it was part of the tour.  So when we went on this one ride I said common Ben this is the second ride you didn't go on, and then when I looked away after 10 seconds, he was crying. I didn't mean to make him feel bad, so automatically I said I was sorry. Mr.M talked to me about it and after that me and Ben were getting  along again!

The first best part of the trip was going to the theme parks.   We went to really fun theme parks like magic kingdom, universal studios, and like every time we had to wake up early because we had tours but anyways we were on tours like I said, the best part about that is that we can go on the rides first, most of the time. We also had some free time to ourselves after the tours so we could go on simulations, more rides, go do a little shopping, and eat food.  Sure it's a little expensive, but it's worth it.

And the last best part of the trip is when we won Honorable Mention in the PSA competition,  that was the best feeling ever when you place against 23 or more Middle Schools.  Me and Isa jumped up from our seats when we heard our school we couldn't believe it, even if it was honorable mention we placed. 

In conclusion, there were some good and bad times on this trip.

So this past Wednesday after we had to go to the Kauai County Building to get recognized by the County Council for coming back from Orlando, Florida and bringing home some awards. The teams who placed and didn't place went up and spoke our names and what we did and   We were put on TV also, because the day after that it went live and people saw it including my family.  The weird thing when I was watching there are always those captions so people could read, and every time I said my name it was spelled wrong. But anyways we were recognized for our work we did.

Community Service

Hey so this weeks blog is about what kind of community service's we could do, as is says in Mr.M's blogs and my title. The community has done a lot for us and supporting us and helping us get to Florida.  So I was thinking we could clean up the beaches, do something for the elderly , or put flowers on the graves for all the soldiers who died in battle.


The first thing we can do is help clean up the beaches.  We could help by keep all of the rubbish from going into the ocean and killing our reef and sea life.  We live on a beautiful island and many people go to our beaches, so by doing a rubbish clean up we can keep our beaches clean and keep our island beautiful and make people want to come and swim freely in clean waters!

The second thing we can do is help the elderly , like we could show  our videos and projects that we did in the past.


The last thing we can do is put flowers on all the graves of all the soldiers who served died in the army, on Memorial day. 

In conclusion, it would be better if we did this once every quarter because many people has sports and are busy with projects and other stuff.  But community service is a good idea to give thanks to the community for all they did for us.

During this past trip I learned some valuable lessons and 3 lessons I learned was during opening ceremony when the student of the year Cameron Quan  it may be some things I already new but it's valuable he said to be humble, teamwork, and motivation, I also learned this quote during a breakout session and it thought I should share it.  This guy named Dave Wertheimer he said "We live our lives in cuts, we dream in dissolve."  Well anyway back to the topic!

When we had our competitions like Sweet 16 and PSA the important thing that we had to do was teamwork, during the PSA and sweet 16 we helped each other out when things got complicated and stressed, like use me for example I was the one stressing the most on the trip but everyone my team helped me also when we were coming up with how we were going to do Sweet 16 we got some help but we all pitched in ideas  and we worked as a team to choose and make it happen.

Next when we were submitting the Sweet 16 entry Castaic Middle School were helping us cheer us on, and  when we were sad and stressed we all helped motivate that team. To me motivation is something like helping someone feel better and to try harder.

And importantly be humble, during the ending ceremony, it is a happy thing to know that your school won but stay humble to be honest I don't think we were humble. But this is a valuable lesson to me because it's mean for people not to be humble well sometimes. Remember like our PSA The Golden Rule!

In conclusion during the past trip I learned some valuable lessons 3 lessons I learned was from opening ceremony, it may be something I already know but, Cameron Quan Student of he year said to be humble, teamwork, and motivation!
