Lean In

Like I said in late December,  I picked Lean In by Sheryl Sandberg the face book CEO who is a mouther as well as a strong successful women in her career. As what was foreseen it was about a vary established women trying to primo woman getting permuted to high up leadership roles in the work place. Sandberge manly wants a balance from both sides, male and female, both in the workplace and in the home. With all honesty this helps relationships last creates the possibility for qual powers between partners. This gives all aspects of the relationship and family life because partners truly have to work together and their bonds become stronger.

I don't find my self having a favorite part of this book I just find my self agreeing with what Sandburge. All of her points make complete sense and they are all backed by logic and have some measurable statistics. The mane emotion I felt during reading this book is how the concept were so "no brainer" its interesting to think about how their still isn't a constant sociable norm to be equals in the work place and the home between genders, in this day and age.

This Book related directly to my iQuset blog because i need to do this in my future. If I want to be a female leader I need have the knowledge to be able to lean in to my family life and my work stature. the Problems and that Sandburg are addressed is what I and every other female is going to face. But as Sandburg explains well this change in beaver it takes both genders to improve both sides. This is why I would recommend it to any one MAle or female. Sandburg is completely right to make change you need change from both sides; Compromise is the key to a more perfect union. And this book also is good for my age readers because its things we need to be thinking about before we even state our first really steps of adulthood in collage.

The underline meaning to this entire book is we need both males and females to break the mold and give respect to both sides to create and balanced society. I think this book was a great read and not something that i would pick up by my self but I believe that reading "Lean In" was a good and necessary step in my growth  in becoming a future woman in the work place leadership hopefully.

My Day @ Junior Achievement Social Innovation Camp

This Wednesday I attended the Junior Achievement Social Innovation Camp. Going into the day I was somewhat excited, I figured that it would be a pretty good day. Lucky fore me I was right. It was a great day and it seemed like all my fellow CAL high iQuest peeress had a good time to.

Stating out the day we played an icebreaker game with our teams. We had to billed a tower with paper: the goal was to produce the tallest tower in the room. Looking around the room many teams seemed to be breaking down the hesitant walls. But within my group it was awkward. There isn’t really another word for it “awkward” described it well. There were 3 people in my team: One Mona Vista iQuest girl, one Dorerty Valley iQuest girl, and me. The rezones why it was awkward wasn’t because we all were from different school, it was because no one talked it seemed like they didn’t really want to be there. When we went up stares to the conference room that we were given to working in, it took us a long time to come up with ideas. I stared just spit balling ideas eventually I thought of a lesson I had in sports med. The lesson consisted of an article and a video, it was about how more and more often teens and other whys healthy or athletic people drop dead from hart problems with little to no warning. I explained how this is happening and how the only way to preventing it is screening test but how they are expensive to do especially widely spared. My group liked this idea and so we went with it. I liked it to, its something that I am interested in so I was feeling good with the idea. Its ware we took the idea, the direction we ran with it I didn’t like. Our presentation and power point didn’t do the idea justice.

After we decided on our social problem we began to look on line for exciting technology,  that would provide a serves that we could tweak and twist to make it our own. We found the Bio-patch. The product is a paper thin Band-Aid like patch that senses and records frequencies such as hart beat, nerve waves, brain waves even muscular tenancies and firing patterns depending on ware on the body it was placed. This product was exactly what we were looking fore, to make it our own we wanted to give the patch Wi-Fi or data to allow the patch to send the data to an application on your smart phone and or to your primary care doctors’ computer. This would allow testing and scanning to become more affordable and allow an insight to the body’s responses to every day activitys. I was excited and happy with what we were coming up with, in till we stated the power point presentation.

The Dority valley girl placed her self at the computer and from the beginning. I read her as a cookie-cutter with out the ability to think for her self, to think deeply about a problem and  the solution. Because of this our power point and presentation was shallow and didn’t present the product in all its wealth.  During all of this the Mona Vista girl said rather little.  The one thing that I am still kicking my self for is not speaking last in our presentation.  Instead I went first and I was so worded about what was pacifically on the two slides I was presenting that I read them and of course I planked and almost went in to panic when I simply could not read the word “take.” This got our presentation of to a rocky stat. I wish I went last because because of my dyslexia I am a good big pitcher thinker and in presentation I always do best going at the end and summing up the point and adding more depth to the importance of the product.

But what really gets me is how both of two girls in my group both seamed to have a twisted view of the point of iQuest. They both were looking at it as time the can use for them selves not really for something they are passionate about. This confused me and made it seem not vary worthy of the iQuest name.

To some it up it was a good day full of new experiences. I’m really happy that I got the chance to go and see more closely to what happened in big business.  I wish more people my age had this opportunity to do these things or even want to do them that’s the said truth about the majority of our generation.

 

The Beginning of The End

I am here! It's the beginning to the end of all I have ever know. For my hole life I have lived in the same house and I barley left California; infarct the first time I have slept in a different state was December 19, 2014. Thought of spending the maggoty of my time in another area, maybe even state, scares me but also excites me. I can't wait to start the next chapter of my life and my education.

I remember being in elementary school looking forwarded to being a Grizzly at CAL. As expected by the time I got here school was becoming more of a drag then it was back then. But with high school comes the hard class and the long nights cramming last minute projects and tests. But their is also so much fun to be had. My last 3.5 years that I have spent at CAL had their ups and their downs. With all the things we have gone though its the way we respond to our individual challenges that have shaped who we are to day. One of my lowest points in high school was last year (Jr. year) when I didn't get reinstated into leadership. I remember the day so clearly it was the Friday before spring brake and I had the first game of the California Cup water polo tournament at 5 (witch my team got 1st in). I remember coming home an telling my big brother, Dan, and my mom that I wasn't going to be in leadership and had no chance of redeem my brother in the hierarchy of ASP witch as a 7th grader I wanted desperately to do. I was still vary shocked and confused and many tears were involved. Looking back on that day I'm glade it turned out the way it did. In truth it was a blessing in disguise; I herd things that I need to here they might not of come in the right way or at the right time but I'm not denying them I have many thing that I need to work on.  That day I felt like a pice of me was ripped away. I felt like I could never be my self again, but I am. This experience changed me and my perspective on life. I previously knew to roll with the bunches but it was difficult form me. Know that I have gone though this challenge and found my self again I now know that I will live and keep making mistakes but eventually finding my way foreword.

This first semester of my senior year I have gotten my best grades since freshmen year. Even though they were not all A's I'm still really happy with them. My goal for my Grades for this semester is to manly keep my Econ grade up. I have a feeling that economics is going to be more changing then any other of my class, but at the same time I'm intrigued in the first two class I have had so fare. I am truly excited for this last semester I have in High School. Unlike my peers, I plane to bush my self hared this semester. This will be the first season of high school swim that I'm applying my self to the sport that I use to love so much. I am also intending to work a lot at the pool fluffily 10 hours a week. Lucky for me I can do my homework at work. When it comes down to it I like to be busy it makes my focus on what is truly important and I know going into collage I need this focus to keep me on track. Knowing me I will always make time for some fun and I intend to make fun in place that are not. This I hope will allow my creativity to grow. Suck as, in one of my favorite class,  photo I am looking forward to the all images that I will produce. One of my projects has to be a documentaries, meaning that my printed images have to be accompanied by quotes from the subject matter, I plain to do it on my brother Dan he is an ironworker and is a connector. I hope to follow him to work one day and take pitches of him and his buddy's working. I have a feeling that with good combustion the will be wonderful. I am also looking forward to all the fun senior things that will accompany this semester: Ball, senior picnic, potter puff, lip sink, and graduation.But its not just the event I'm looking forward to its all the memories that we will make i really wish our class could come together and be a big family no jugging and just be able to know that everyone will remember a good time this last semester. If I had one wish!

Next Year I'm not sure ware I will be.... it will be one of:

• California State University Chico*
• California State University Humboldt*
• California State University Fresno 
• California State University East Bay 
• California State University Monterey
• Wester Washington University*
• Estern Washington University*
• Wester State Colorado University*

I know that ware every I end up i think I will do well in recreation. I just cant wait to here back and visit them and deiced a pone my path to my future.
  
My 3 SMART goals are:

1. My iQuest goal is to use my time more wisely. With our blessing of time I have used it according to my internship but I feel that I have more passion in other areas. In this way I love the idea of recreation not just because I know that its job that I can not only do but thrip in, I can still do all the things I love to do in my future not only as a side hobby but as apart of my job. So I hope to continue to use my time at Iron Horse but also find more time for photography, skiing, swimming, being out side, and helping people. I will measure this by the number of 3 I get on my prints in photo, how many days I ski this season (I'm at 5 day), for swimming the number of time I drop over the corse of the season, and for helping people the number of community service I do this semester.
2. My family/Freind goal is to feather and regrow my relation ship with both family and friends. I am starting to go back to my therapist fare soon I hope this will help me manage my mess of emotions and allow me to stray in this good place that I am. They will also help me measure this goal. I also hope to make a trip up to my favorite ants house this spring. Her and my Dad's mother died when they were in high school I have always wondered and wanted to know more about my Grandmother. So this last summer i asked my Ant Clair if i could come up and she could tell me about her she said yes and i still need to make that trip up to pen valley.
3. My last goal is about my health. One of the things that is driving me to do swimming this year is for my health. Not just to get fit but for my body's health. I have many injures that I know will not just go a way. I will have them for ever but I want to retune to swimming to show my self that with determination my injures will lesson and I will be able to live a lifestyle that I want to live, not always in pain this means that i have to work on my tendon strength and my storks technique. This will be measurable by my times this season and the amount of injury flareups.

THIS WILL BE A GOOD SEMESTER!
