Being a part of the aim games was such an amazing and heart warming experience which I would love to be a part of again! I made new friends and also learned how lucky I am to be able to do physical activities, which sadly some of the participants in the aim games could not. The games made me realize not to take anything for granted because there's some people out there who would love to do everything you can and would trade spots with you in a heart beat. Seeing some of the participants who could not do much but were still so excited to be in the games just touched my heart. Even though they have some disabilities that make them not be able to participate at the rate that they would like to they were all still so happy and excited. Overall the aim games was an amazing experience and i would love to be a part of it for the years to come.

Fencing: April 9th- 11th
I loved doing fencing in our class. It was kind of diffrent then i thought it was going to be. I found it really interesting and i think that it is a fun and intelligent sport. I feel that my participation level was really good while doing fencing. I would love to do fencing again because it is one of favortie activites that we have done in this class so far. I hope that i could get the oppertunity to take part in fencing once again because i really had enjoyed it.

1. Action 53%
My attendance in this class is okay, i wouldnt say it is perfect because i have missed some class due to various reasons. I usually always bring my gym strip to class, i think i have forgot it mabye 2 or 3 times already and i do not plan to forget it anymore. I think that my participation level for various activities that we do in this class is good because, i do have those days when im not feeling so good or just not having a good day and that makes me not want to do anything at all but other than that i think i do a pretty good job with participating in this class. For my fileld trip attendance, i have only been to one out of two. I had missed the first one due to being sick but i plan on going to the rest of the filed trips we attend. For block wide fitness days i do try to do my best, but as i said before i feel like everybody has those days where then feel like doing nothing and are just not having it. Other than when i have those days i think that my effort is pretty good. I do wanna keep on pushing myself though so i can go harder and harder each fitness day.
2. Contribution 20%
I think that in this class i bring motivation to others, and i feel that i do bring a good attitude to this class. I love the feeling of being somebodys motivation so i try my best in this class to try and be that motivation for others. I feel that i do make wise desicions in this class, however somtimes i feel that i should just try to push myself harder instead of always staying the same level. I feel that my empathy level towards others is good because i dont think that ive ever made somebody in our class feel bad about themselves due to their effort or how they participate and i dont plan on doing that. I feel that nobody should be judged by how they participate.

I think that ive done a okay job with my blog, i feel that i should mabye put more effort in my blog and post more offten. I would love to start doing that from now on so i can post more stuff about my progress and just random stuff about our class activities. I really feel that by taking this class it has pushed me to want to go harder and put more effort in any activity that i do. I also feel that i do still have a weakness for when we go on block wide fitness days or when were doing activities with other classes. However i feel that that weakness is going away, it might be going away slowly but its better then not going away at all.

Get fit 10 blog - April 7/2014
I think that my activity level since the beginning of the year has went up a lot. Since we started get fit i feel that i have more energy and i can tell a difference in my fitness level extremely because i have also been working out outside of school now. Its helped me a lot with controlling my asthma and i actually have started feeling less and less insecure about myself , my body & how i participate. I feel that so far get fit has boosted my confidence level and fitness level a lot since the beginning of the semester & its really fun!
Dance week:
My favorite part of dance week was zumba. Zumba is like fitness and dancing combined and i love to dance and do fitness so i really enjoy doing zumba.

My attendance for get fit so far has been pretty good, I think so far I have only missed 1 class. I usually have my strip but twice I had forgot it. My participation level is good, because I've always participated I've just not participated to the level I could sometimes. I would rate my participation this year in get fit at a medium to high level. I guess it all depends on the day. Because I come to gym sometimes ready to do anything , all energized but then sometimes I feel like a zombie, and don't feel like doing anything. Honestly love doing fitness with just our class, and I think it also shows because I participate in a higher level. I'm really proud of the class when we did the pyramid and the extended beaptest, because I pushed myself to the fullest and I actually enjoyed it and felt good. My best attributes are that I motivate others and I try my best majority of the classes. Most of the time I bring a goofy and happy energy. & I always try to motivate others to try there best. I could the the classroom fun and happy, instead of thinking of it as a jail and being all sad. And I could try and bring a positive energy. Friends are motivating me to participate and also just the fact that I can feel good and look good by participating also is a motivation to me.

Missrepresentation movie blog
This documentary really opened my eyes to what the world around me really is like. I was shocked to find out that some men could really be that ignorant. To hear what some of the men had to say about women made me sick to my stomach. The fact that women are labelled so much, and have to be a certain way or they won't be accepted in society now a days makes me so mad. Even though the guys are saying these horrible things about is girls, I still feel for them because they have pressure to of how they should look. Guys and girls shouldn't care about what they like or try to have a "perfect" so they can fit in, but instead they should start to care about their personality and how what they do affect others. The fact that just by seeing a women on tv that has the "perfect" body makes us girls feel so insecure and torture our selfs to look that way just so we can be accepted in society now a days makes me really upset. I've always been brought up being told that you should be proud of yourself and be proud of the way you are. I've been taught that you should think for yourself and not care about others opions as much. I'm sure that many girls and guys were brought up that way but with the society that were living in right now I don't think that's possible for many people. I was one of those girls who at one point broke down and started to starve myself to look a certain way, so when I see those people that are in that issue now a days it breaks my heart because I know exactly how they feel and how hard it is to feel proud of yourself. Media needs to stop telling is how to look or what we should wear or what we should do. We should be in control of what we want to wear or look like and do what we want to do, not what others think we should.

Get fit blog #1
I choose get fit 10 this year because first of all I want to get fit. Secondly I get really insecure when I have to do sports or workout in front of guys, which is something I'm trying to work on . So I took this class to help me with that and to help me with my asthma because exercising is suppose to help me with it but I just can't do a lot a lot. I also think that I will get a lot of support in this class from all the girls because most of them would understand where I'm coming from when I say I have insecurities. I'm really looking forward for this year, and to get fit!
