I once had to plan my younger sisters birthday party and trust me, she is very picky about what she wants. She wanted a sleepover and to go to McDonald's for supper which I find very unusual for a 7 yaer old birthday party and for it to be princess themed. I was going to see if her dad was willing to dress up as a princess for her. He said sure but then an emergency from his work come up. The good part is that I got payed 20 bucks for doing what I am about to say, and the bad part is I ended up having to dress up as Cinderella for her. It wasn't exactly the best experience I've had.
I had to plan when I was going to have my friends over for a sleepover. It went well but at the same time we didn't know what we were going to do. So I put out like an agenda of all the things that we were going to do. I can't explain all the things but at least we had a lot of fun and we were really happy! One of the obstacles I had to overcome is what time we had to go to bed! Because the thing is I didn't want to sleep (I wanted to stay up the whole night)so the bad news is we ended up sleeping at 1:00 but the good news is that we partied and chilled and it was the best sleepover EVER!
I always have to plan on how to put up the Halloween or Christmas decorations. My parents are always nagging me to do it and I end up asking for their help because as you all know very well: I am VERY short (and my little brother who is in grade four is as tall as me)!!! It always looks nice in front of my house during Fall and Winter. It's all because of how I look at the house and then the decorations and say that goes there and that goes there. An obstacle like I said is that i am short so I need a ladder and my parents to help me. But it's fun...
The only time I can remember having to plan something was when one of my friends said something super rude to my other friend, and I decided to stand up to her. I didn’t like the way she was talking to my other friend who hadn’t done anything wrong, so I planned to stand up to her and tell her that what she was doing wasn’t right. When I told her that what she did wasn’t right, she was kind of like “well I thought you were on my side” but she took it well and she understood that it wasn’t right, so she apologized. I love this girl to pieces and I don’t have anything against her, she just made a mistake. An obstacle I had to overcome was not to be afraid to stand up for someone, and I also didn’t want my friend to me mad at me for standing up to her. In the end, I think and I hope I did the right thing.
One year for Christmas I decided to knit my mom a scarf. I went to fabricville (a store), and picked her out a nice coloured thin wool. I started my project and at first it was going great! But then the stitches were becoming tighter, the rows were uneven and there was even holes! I didn't know what to do. I couldn't exactly ask the person who thought me how to knit because that would be my mom and it wa for her. I then decided to ask my dad why I should do after I explained my problems to him. He sujested I should take my piece over to my nanny's house right next door because she is kind of a craft wiz. I brought my messy peice over to her house. She told me the only solution was to restart! I was very discureged and wanted to just give up:(. Then she gave me a much thicker wool and thicker needles and explained to me how to make looser stitches. As soon as I started the process was going quicker then I imagined and I was whipping through the project. On Christmas morning she was supper happy with her gift! THANKS FOR READING!!!! ;) :))
Did i ever have to plan something? Hmm...... let me think..... OF COURSE! You plan almost everything! Your dinner, your time and pretty much everything else!The first thing that i thought of is when i saw this blog is when i got a lot of homework (Not from Mr katz) and i had to PLAN when to do it. i had to plan what i would do as soon as i would get home, when i would take a snack or have dinner and stuff like that. Somethings got in the way of this"Week of homework" though. Things like my 1 hour Piano lessons, or my 2 hour Teakwondo (kind of like Karate but its from South Korea and its more kicking than punching) that i have every Tuesday and Thursday nights! But being the magical wizard i am, i jumped over these obstacles like a sheep over a fence! (I'm feeling a bit poetic today) i got all my homework done with time to chill! Thank you for reading this epic tale!
The last thing I remember planning out, was my solo, for a competition I have in Dorval on November 27. Just to draw out your solo and practicing it takes a tone of planning, but its the day of the competition that requires the most planning! The first thing I had to do was draw out my solo with my coach, and then I HAD to learn it within two sessions (one weekend). Then, once you’re done with the endless weekends of practicing, comes competition day! You see, this isn’t my first rodeo! Once competition day finally comes, get ready for your personal hell for a good 3-4 hours. Standard rule is you MUST get there 2 hours early. Hair, make up, dresses, and much more goes in those 2 hours! The first 1 ½ you must be doing your make up, hair, stretches, etc. Then, 20-30 BEFORE you even go on ice you must have your skates on. Oh yah, and did I mention the dresses pretty much sheere on the sleeves, neckline, back, so your pretty much freeze until you actually get on ice. Then, after all this hectic planning, you do a 1-2 minute solo, and you’re done. You have to wait for atleast an hour after you do your solo because the judges take their sweet old time! But it’s so worth it, once you do evereything! Luckily, during almost all of my competitions, I’ve gotten a medal/ribbon/score (score: they do this in Montreal so that nobody feels bad). To be honest, the only truly challenging obstacle in doing these competitions, is the practicing part. It can get very challenging! The music goes with you’re solo, so if you don’t jump on the right beat, you can risk messing up the whole solo, and that is the worst thing that could happen!
One of the biggest things I've had to plan would probably be having to plan for my up coming exams for sixth grade English. We had to right a story based on a certain picture involving a back pack. So, the planning began and I encountered many obstacles along the way, such as writer's block (the dreaded disease of any writer) and another person who had the same idea as me. However, in the end |I was able to strive through and finish my exams with more then thirty minutes to spare! I was so glad that I was able to finish on time.
Planning is a lot of work. In grade 6 I was in social action. (A place where a group of students that take action for a better world) I was a senor at Sherwood Forest at the time so I was practically running a large group of crazy young children. The social action group and I decided to raise money for a cause called "I Am Hesima". We planned to create a school thrift shop where students would bring in stuff they didn't need anymore an buy things from other students.(All the profits go to "I Am Heshima") There was 2 days in advance from the thrift shop when the teacher in charge asked me to run it. She expected me to control 20 other younger students (Mainly in grade 1 and 2) to sell objects to other students, Set everything out on the tables, and above all take time away from doing my french exam to keep everything under control. I was so stressed but everything ended up okay. The social action group raised a total of just under ten thousand dollars for "I Am Heshima".
I have never planned a plan so heroic like Ulysses, but I did plan a O.K plan. The plan was a evil and bad plan. The plan was to play my clarinet so I can make her forget so I can play Ipad for the whole night. When I tried to do it actually work. There was no obstacles to overcome. But like I said it was an evil plan.
Last year when it was my birthday I had a sleep over with my friend Brianna and Julia. I was planning to watch all fuller house on Netflix (because it came out on my birthday) eat lots of candy and stay up all night. It turned out that we watched 3 episode of fuller house and we only stayed up till 2 in the morning. Staying up to 2 in the morning is actually really hard! I don't know how some people stay awake all night! The only thing that went as plan is that we ate a lot of candy.
Sounds like a fun sleepover, once my friends and I stayed up until 4 until my dad came downstairs because we were making too much noise. He was pretty mad!
Last year I planned my vacation with my parents to Toronto. We had to plan which hotel we were staying at on what day. It turned out AMAZING!!!! I had so much fun. We went to calypso when we were on the way there and we stayed at this amazing hotel! The only obstacle we ran in to is that we were late for the hotel and we thought that they might have gave our room to someone else but they gladly didn't.
me and my best friend Charlotte wanted a national bfffuwdtwheoeowwbn...zq day (inside joke) so we chose a number between 100 and 356 since we were the 100 day of the year and we wanted it to be this year randomly we both said 107 so its now April 16 our best friend day but before we chose the day we promised that we would have a sleepover cook spaghetti and other sorts of food for both of our families and every time the day came around we would have to answer quizzes about each other. Last year April 16 was a Monday and i'm not allowed sleepovers or eating at a friends house on school days. it took a long amount of begging but we finally got to do the sleep over and eat together. Now my mom always allows us on April 16 to have sleepovers
Once I planned out how I would get to the store and back using buses. It happened around last year and I decided to go on my own on a bus adventure. I had it all planned out, what I would do when I got there, when I got back, etc. The problem is that the bus never showed up. I gave up waiting after around a hour and went on with my day.
I remember just this summer my soccer team and I made it to the playoffs. We are the best team in the league so we had a plan to fly right through this competition on top as always. In our first playoff game, an underdog team came out and scared the poop out of us. It was extremely dark at the field and there where no lights and my goalie couldn't see a thing. By halftime it was 0-3 for them. It was a complete shock and we where all left with our mouths wide open. Although it was extremely discouraging going in three points down, we put on our game faces and went into the second half with confidence after that humiliating first half. We played outr hearts out and finally it came. Not one goal, not two, not even three, but 4 goals in a 25 minutes half!!!!!!!!!!!!! We all screamed and where so excited. From what I heard from my mom, it was a nail biting game and none of the parents had hope for us but shame on them because we came back stronger and harder that anyone ever expected. We worked as a team and to this day I am so proud of my team for pulling off that amazing victory. After that game our plan worked out and we ended up winning the playoffs. :) yay!
Well, in fact, I did have to plan something. Obviously it was not something as great Ulysses, but it was pretty darn good. It was a sleepover party with my friends. I had 7 or something friends (I sort of forgot who came). Everyone came which is good news. At the beginning we went to Skytag and played on the trampolines. Everyone had a blast at Skytag. Then we went back to my house and at some stuff and watched a lot of movies. We stayed up so late that I don’t even think we got sleep. I don’t want to go into every detail so I will just say a few words. It turned out great! Some obstacles I had to overcome is that my friends kept on staying on there annoying phones! They kept on going on it all night and talking loud. Another obstacle is when someone didn’t want to play at Skytag. They wanted to sit down and do nothing. I was annoyed about that but my parents kept on saying to involve him somehow. So I did. In the end it turned out ok.
I never really had to plan anything in my life except for goofing of with my friends. On the other hand my parents are really good planners. They plan every Christmas Eve they plan everything that needs to be done around the house. They make sure we have enough food and drinks for everyone considering there is approximately thirty people @ the party. One day I really hope to become a good planner like my parents.
I had a few plans over the years, like a plan to improve in basketball by setting up a plan to get open for a pass then score. I had to come up with it in the middle of the game. I tried to set it up, it worked until a really tall girl blocked my shot. I was disappointed but then few minutes later I scored so it was all good. There were no obstacles to overcome. We ended up winning 43-21!
It's more my dad help me plan. My dad is also my hockey coach and it is my first year playing hockey. I normally play right winger and my dad tries to help me understand my positioning and how to be ready. In terms of me, I always end up planning how to entertain my little sisters while babysitting them. I normally end up giving them the tv or an iPad but when they don't want that, I have to plan something or be overwhelmed with crying. My best one was I put on the mp3 to One Direction. The first problem was that they wouldn't budge and the second one was that the mp3 wasn't working. The biggest problem of all though, I had to listen to One Direction non-stop for two hours. Of course they always love my entertainment and this one seems to be their favourite. It turned out great because for once they left my five minutes to do homework.
In my life I never had to plan something so strategical like Ulysses, but I did I have to plan one thing. Last year, when I was 11, I was playing baseball. One day I got called up to a Bantam B all-star game. (That's with 15 year olds) At first obviously I didn't want to go, I would literally die from embarrassment and from getting hit in the face by a 75 mph fastball. After thinking of a plan, to not get killed, I decided to go to the game. My plan was to sac bunt all game, no I would generally not get struck out, and to play outfield all game. My plan didn't end up working, and I was put on the Hot Corner (3rd Base) probably the hardest position to play if your looking not to get hit it the face. We ended up losing 25-0, but it wasn't my fault because I played decent under the circumstances. I guess my plan didn't really work out.
This must be really hard to hear but I almost always need to plan when I do my homework. I estimate the time it takes to complete said task and I pick when will the time be suited for me to do it.
Ex: before school, recess, lunch, in between classes
Which of my knowledge is totally allowed considering it is only considered due in the time of class. I am also believed by teachers that this is possible because they say “why didn’t you do it at lunch” to my fellow classmates when they did not complete their assignment in the time given.
It is especially hard when you have to visit a teacher at the same time.
I had to plan a secret Santa/Hanukkah with 4 of my friends this year. We planed this because it was just something fun to do during the holidays. I think it went quite well considering that is all planned out now. I think though that it might have gone better. If it was just me and one other girl who did all the planning because there would have been way less arguments.
I had to organize a football outing with my friends. We were supposed to go see the Allouttes play against the Eskimos. I had invited 2 friends to join me and my dad was supposed to buy the tickets and accompany us to the game. On the day of the game, my dad still had not purchased the tickets. He went online and the tickets we wanted were sold out. What a bummer! I had to break the news to my friends. Everyone was very disappointed. I was very upset.

We ended up losing 25-0, but it wasn't my fault because I played decent under the circumstances. I guess my plan didn't really work out.
ReplyDeleteThis must be really hard to hear but I almost always need to plan when I do my homework. I estimate the time it takes to complete said task and I pick when will the time be suited for me to do it.
ReplyDeleteEx: before school, recess, lunch, in between classes
Which of my knowledge is totally allowed considering it is only considered due in the time of class. I am also believed by teachers that this is possible because they say “why didn’t you do it at lunch” to my fellow classmates when they did not complete their assignment in the time given.
It is especially hard when you have to visit a teacher at the same time.
I had to plan a secret Santa/Hanukkah with 4 of my friends this year. We planed this because it was just something fun to do during the holidays. I think it went quite well considering that is all planned out now. I think though that it might have gone better. If it was just me and one other girl who did all the planning because there would have been way less arguments.
ReplyDeleteWow great blog Michaela!!! That sounds fun a secret Santa
ReplyDeleteI had to organize a football outing with my friends. We were supposed to go see the Allouttes play against the Eskimos. I had invited 2 friends to join me and my dad was supposed to buy the tickets and accompany us to the game. On the day of the game, my dad still had not purchased the tickets. He went online and the tickets we wanted were sold out. What a bummer! I had to break the news to my friends. Everyone was very disappointed. I was very upset.
