Ilima Wars: Episode II: Attack of the ISA [insert Star Wars theme here again]

Umm, pretty self-explanatory. But I have to explain it anyway. So the whole week was like in preparation for ISA. But I'd hardly call that the one interesting thing in this week. In band, we learned how to do things with instruments and now I can play Horacio, my French Horn. We're finally doing something productive in torture Socialpathic Studies. Nothing else sticks out in my mind. Now, to the elephant in the room, ISA. I was restrooms. It was a long three hours. After the death wait was over, we had lunch. I wasn't that hungry. The food just made me tired. And I tripped. That was annoying. It was bleeding, so I had to put a band-aid on. How annoying is that? My arm had the nerve to just start bleeding! How dare it! Sometimes I hate my arm. Well, after lunch, we started to clean up. I was tired. I don't know how many times I ran into a wall. It was like twice as much as normal because we had to put everything away twice. Apparently we were putting stuff away too slow the first time. I actually wasn't there then. Once the cleanup was done, we just stayed in A101 and did some unfinished work. That was pretty much it. I bet we're going to have an assignment blog for ISA and I'll have to explain this again. For our magic notes, I feel like I've been writing longer and longer notes. My secret: poetry. I write poems if I can't think of anything to write normally. Poems are more abstract, so I can write almost anything. Also, they feel more sincere than just saying, You're the bestest keep being great! Rhythms and lines just come easily to me. Oh, I completely forgot evacuation and halloween! Well, I already typed out my other two paragraphs when I wrote this. Oh well.

So one highlight of the week was how easy and fun to write magic notes now. I've found the solution to my dilemma. I just need to be creative. Another highlight was band, but band is always fun. Not much else to say about band. It's always fun. A lowlight would be being a restroom person for ISA. It was boring because Alize had her phone and my phone died. I just sat there. And sat there. And sat there. Another lowlight was having to take everything back twice (even though I didn't take anything back the first time.) I was tired and could barely focus. You can't expect something as big as ISA to run completely smoothly, and at least something like that didn't happen while the other schools were there.

I learned that we need to do things efficiently or we'll waste time and, like yesterday, redo things. I also learned that sometimes, you need to boring jobs, like restrooms, that need to be done. Useful lessons for the rest of my life. I also learned that Halloween is a commercialized mess and I hate it. Doesn't really pertain to leadership, but it shows things about my personality.

For my magic note, I chose Emily's. I felt it was the one I most wanted. All the other ones were like about me getting angry and my dancing and that stuff. I don't want to be known as that person. I don't like that and I don't want to talk about it. Emily's magic note was what I wanted to hear and what I listened to the most.
