haunted house; number eleven.

For the design of the Haunted house, my group was assigned the room before the shower. We decided on using mirrors. I never really felt like I was doing much.. So I worked on the bathroom with Ali and Tiana. My role was to make the bathroom a scary jumpy area. And I wanted the haunted house be actually be scary unlike the
following years. not trying to be mean, or hurt the past leadership classes. But I didn't think they were very scary.
  A couple barriers faced during this was picking one idea. We had so many ideas. Then putting it together to make the room was pretty hard.. Finding a job for everyone in the group was a challenge. I felt like I didn't get to do much. A personal barrier was that I couldn't stay focused a lot of the time, I was talking with a lot of people. I resolved this by keeping myself occupied by doing little tasks to keep myself buys.  Other barriers that people made were the fact at certain times people would give advice to you to help.. And you didn't want to hear it.  I just ignored their advice and kept doing what I was doing.
 Even though we all had different ideas, we all stayed open minded. And listened to each other. My group worked extremely well. Others probably did too, but I didn't really pay much attention to them.
 Some people took charge of the haunted house, and did a lot to help make it. But It was very hard to work with them, because they had a bossy attitude.. but I think a lot of people just ignored it and focused on making the scariest haunted house.
  Some leadershp skills I used durring this activity was: being hard working, cheerful, and imaginative.  The hard working was getting my work done, I really wanted the haunted house to be scary. And it was. I was cheerful, even though bossed around, I tried to keep positive and hope people would follow. And being Imaginative.. I came up with cool ideas on the spot. And they turned out to be really cool.
 during this haunted house I think I managed myself very well. I struggled with staying on task a bit, while making posters in the hall. Because people walked by. But I just reminded myself that this has to get done, I can talk with my friends later. I think I did work as hard as I could. I'm really proud of myself actually. I did however never refuse help, if someone needed it I wiould help with it. My group didn't need me, so I just helped others. I could have improved by being more positive. I showed a positive attitude, but inside I was misserable. Because I was being bossed around.
 Overall, I felt like a did a lot of work. even if I didn't take charge of everything, it's the little things that count right? A mark I'd give myself out of 20 would be 18. I know this is a high mark, but I think I deserved it. I helped everyone, and put in so many ideas.. Even if a lot of them didn't get used. I had a positive attitude during this activity, and I think it rubbed off on some people.
 Even though we don't get a lot of homework in this class, I love the fact our homework is write bloggs. We can really be ourselves, and even though some are longer than others, more deep than others; they show how we feel during our classes, our days, and whats on our minds. Mr Tompkins, you actually take the time to read what we have to say. You're my favorite teacher for that. You actually care what we have to say, what we thnk. Thank you for being the best teacher ever.
