Active Involvement
Active involvement is being involved and with on camps events like clubs sports teams and drama productions like acting in a play singing or playing an instrument. I have been involved in all these fields. For example I worked with the drama production class setting up the play “I hate hamlet” that went on this semester. I was in charge of the light and sound cues that were in the play. I really enjoyed my time working on this play. I learned a lot from the different people that were working with us. Actor’s backstage managers and the props people. Working together to put a play was a very hard job; we had to work as a team helping each other with different chores. We faced a lot of conflicts, which was very normal for a drama class to suffer from but in the end we put up the play and everybody enjoyed it. I am also on the volleyball team of auk. I am learning a lot. It is a must to work as whole not as single individuals when you’re on a team. Communication is key. Without communication we would have chaos on our team, and we wouldn’t be able to play properly. This impacted my college experience by teaching me important qualities that I will use later in life. For example, thinking before speaking, Communication, respect and patience.
I got into a fight with my drama professor because I used to have a very bad way of communicating with my peers. I am a vey low tempered person, and that caused me to have problems with the team I was working with. But with time I learned that not everything has to work my way even if it was the right way, but I must listen to others views and opinions and take them into consideration before taking action on my own thoughts. This experience will help me a lot in the future by making me a better person with dealing with matters that involve dissension taking and organizing events. I am very thankful to this opportunity that showed me a better quality in me that I’m still working on, making it better everyday.
I recommend

    There was an older adult that told them to stop arguing and pick up the food. They then argued over who should pick it up. So, I came over and asked them, who was going to be the bigger person and they both raced to pick it up first. This showed how these students wanted to be treated like adults. If I had not connected with these students earlier I may not have been able to resolve this situation. This displays how important it is for young children to have a mentor or role model to talk and engage with. Through the various interactions I have had with students thus far, I have learned to be humble and grateful, and to connect with people because there is so much to learn from others.…

    Imagine you are a young woman tragically swept away from your soul mate. This sounds familiar doesn't it (Romeo and Juliet). Now imagine your best friend moved and it felt like him or her was just taken away. This also sounds familiar. Now Imagine that your best friend actually moved and you are cast as Romeo or Juliet in a play and you have a better love for the play because you can relate. Also you feel heard and comforted because you feel someone else feels your pain. Acting is one of the most important enjoyable part of my life that helps stay away from life, but at our school there are some challenges that prevent full participation, but there are doable solutions.…

Band first began to be an activity I joined in to get active so I could feel like I was part our school and that I was unique. To get active you can learn to have a passion for what you are doing. Joining band, I discovered I had an undying love for music and that I would want music to be a part of my future. I have also gotten active in other sides of the performing acts.
