30 Day Challenge (Day 11)

We had to give at least one genuine compliment today. I get home and my mom dyed her hair! It was a enormous surprise to me but it look incredibly cute, so I told her that I really like her hair. She kind of looked at me and said that she liked it too. She didn't say thanks or anything to acknowledge that she was appreciative that I complimented her. I wasn't very happy about that. 

30 Day challenge (Day 10)

We had to try to walk to the right of the hallways. At first, I had a bit of trouble, but that is probably because I am not used to this challenge yet. The other challenges I as able to apply to my mind right away, but this one, I can't seem to remember. Everyone (the class) has been constantly reminding me to walk too the right. It gets annoying but that is kind of my fault. I will hopefully be able to apply this quickly!

30 Day Chaallenge (Day 9)

Today I have taken 15 minutes of my time to reflect in my day, how it went, and what I could've done differently. Overall, I had a genuinely good day. It went by very smooth, like a new, fixed road. No bumps or curves, just very smooth. Nothing really went wrong. I got along with everyone, was able to talk to the boy I like without almost dying and didn't loose focus in any of my classes. I am very content of my day today. 

30 Day Challenge (day 8)

After 8 days I realized how many lights get left on! It is so irritating. I actually got after my dad to turn off the lights and he kind of look confused, like, why is my daughter giving me trouble? He started laughing and I reminded him how he is constantly complaining of the electric bill. I told him, the cause of the bill being so high is because he is always leaving the lights on. Recently he has been turning off the light, I am so proud. (:

30 Day Challenge (Day 7)

Saturday
I continued with the challenges I have faced these past couple of days. Some women in the women's washroom washed her hands and placed her paper towel on the counter! I kind  of just looked at it. I didn't even wait until she left to put it away, I jut went beside her, politely said ''excuse me'' and I picked it up and put it in the garbage, and she looked confused after! So while I was washing my hands another women did the same thing. I went, picked it up, and put it in the garbage. The women fave me a dirty look after, so I just waited for my mom to come out to leave.

Sunday
Today I decided to start reading my earlier then I usually do, I realized that a little while after I started to read I got thirsty. So I went to grab 1 glass of water. After I drank that glass, I was STILL thirsty, so I drank my second glass. Later on with supper, I drank two more, I have been getting really thirsty lately, So I had four in total. I had one more after one hour, and drank my last 3 before bed. I wake up in the middle of the night and I am incredibly thirsty!  

30 Day Challenge (Day 6)

We have continued our challenges from the past week. For drinking water I haven't really got used to it but I have been completing that challenge. Furthermore, I have been turning off lights that I never seemed to turn off before, such as, my bedroom light. I was doing some chores and I turned off my light, when I came back to my room, I was a little confused of why my light was off, at first I thought it was the ghosts that turned it off then I remembered I turned it off while doing my chores. I have continued my book,  rules, and I have found out that it can be really irritating when you have a sibling that has autism. I saw a piece of trash that my brother tossed on the floor and I kind of got mad at him. My parents were confused of why I got mad and I have been in the habit of picking up trash. One time, I did it in front of a random guy that threw his McDonald's cup on the ground and he gave me a dirty look! So I used "the stare" at him and he drove off. Finally, I have been at my dance studio lots this week, so, I have said hello to younger dancers and now, they are my friends! What are the odds of that? I will continue my journals as my journey goes on.

30 Day Challenege (day 5)

Today we continued our 30 day challenge! Our challenge today was to drink at least 8 glasses of water. I drank at least 2 cups at school then came home and drank another 2. After the 4 glasses I felt kind of funny so I stopped for at least 1-2 hours. After those hours passed, i drank another 2. Then i still felt thirsty after so i drank ANOTHER 2 then realized my challenge was accomplished.

30 Day Challenge (day 4)

The challenge of the day was, to turn off the lights if you are the last one out. I have done this a lot in my lifetime so it is kind of a habit so this challenge wasn't a problem for me. I leave my room, I turn the light off, I leave the washroom, I turn the light off, I leave the kitchen, I turn the light off. I have also been doing all my challenges, saying hello to someone new, picking up foreign litter, reading for pleasure and now turning off the lights when you leave a room. This challenge is going awesome so far!

30 Day Challenge (Day 3)

Today's challenge was to read for pleasure. The book I read was rules. It's about this little boy who has autism. He has a older sister named Catherine and she just wants a normal life. Her whole life revolves around her little brother, David. Catherine tries to teach David some rules that he will need for the future.Such as,  chew with your mouth closed, say "thank you"when someone gives you a present (even if you don't like it), if someone say "hi" you say "hi"back, when you want to get out of answering something,  distract the question with another question, not everything worth keeping has to be useful, etc.. So, I am quite excited to be able to read more tomorrow.

30 Day Challenge (Day 2)

So, day 2 has become a whole new part in my life! I think this will influence me to pick up more garbage! That's our challenge of course. I saw a candy wrapper on the ground so I went to go pick it up, When I picked it up it felt all sticky and squishy! It was DISGUSTING! I had to go wash my hands because my fingers were sticky afterwards.

30 Day Challenge (Day 1)

30 day challenge (day 1) 

So today we started the 30 day challenge and our first challenge was to say hello to someone new. I said hello to a grade 5 student while passing her in the hallway. After I said hello, she looked at me and smiled. She look happy and surprisingly, not scared! Her friends looked a bit scared at first but after, they were fine. So, we start our journey of the 30 day challenge!
