I basically joined every club I found interesting.
During elementary school I was in a reading type of club, I forgot the name... In that club, we stayed in the library and memorized a short picture book. We had to use puppets to act out the story and present it to the whole school. We even had an opportunity to go to a little festival/trip.
In middle school I was in publications, graphic animations, and the yearbook committee. A group of my friend came up with a plan to create a graphic animation club and I somehow not only became one of the founders, but also the president of that club after I made 10 people join... Yearbook and Publications where basically like an elective that let you do volunteer work after school. In publications, I was in charge of creating scripts and videos with my team for morning announcements where everyone in school watched on the classroom T.V. In yearbook, I had the opportunity to set up dances, take pictures, and interview fellow classmates. Oh, and I was also part of the poetry and writing club in the Liberty during lunch sometimes. The honor society also made me join their club due to my grades but I only attended the meetings because they always had cookies and junk food...
In highschool, I was in any club I thought was cool but mostly theater. I joined the "Be Me" club for less than a month because the President saw me and just dragged me into the club room... I was in Manga club and almost became the President but I was too busy with other things. I was Vice President of Asian Pacific Islander Club. I was forced to join DECA as a year 3 marketing class requirement or else I'd have to switch my classes. I was in A.P. Society which was basically an Advance Placement club that strengthened our academic standing in classes like literature, mathematics, and science. S.O.L (Society of Latinos) was a club that was part of the A.P. Society because we had the same advisor and common events like volunteer work at the same area's. I was in Drama club due to the fact that it was just like Theater. I joined theatre during my freshman year because my friends dragged me there against my will and I dropped it 3 times until early I joined the second semester of my sophomore year. I got a part every time I joined but I had personal events which prevented me on staying until sophomore year and I was an Actor but what made me stay was becoming a Techie. Someone dared me to stay a full production due to previous events and I stayed till I graduated. The schedules where extremely LONG!!!
I went to school around 6:30am and finished all my classes by 2pm. If I had a certain club after school, I'd attend them. The clubs ranged from 30min to an hour long on certain days and after those clubs I'd go straight to Theater. Theater lasted till 5pm every weekday, unless it was hell week which lasted till 8pm on weekdays and continued on Saturday which was a around 9am to 5pm. We performed musicals and plays for about 4 days (Wednesday to Friday) straight after hell week. Somedays I'd get home around 11pm at the latest and as early as 2:30pm.
Honestly, school was like my home. Me and a group of my friends planned an operation call project BIGFOOT in order to sneak into the Theater and have a sleepover. I might sound like a full on dork who did great in school but honestly I calculated all my grades in order to skip as many classes as I could. I failed 3 classes just because they bore me and I went to parties constantly. I went to the emergency room twice in the same month for alcohol intoxication and a broken ear which my dad thought I got due to a fight... My parents were extremely surprised that I graduated because of my ditching habits. I passed all the Proficiency exams on the first try and even got into the college I wanted... Now I'm taking a gap year before I start college and I'll probably join many clubs; maybe even a sorority.
Sorry for the long story, everyone always says,"What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" but I love talking about myself. I've been in advance English and literature classes since I was in elementary school so I tend to write a lot but my weak points are spelling and grammar, along with run-on sentences. Sorry for some mistakes... Thank you for reading!!! ٩(๑❛ᴗ❛๑)۶
