It's a Girl

As I was watching this insightful documentary, I was encouraged to go and do something that not many women are able to do. Some of the women in this documentary were able to speak so strongly, it really encouraged me and inspired me to be more of who I am. This movie was able to address many issues that modern day girls go through daily. Many of the issues that were adressed weren't something that I realized before. It was a real eye opener because after watching this, you see and relate more with what was seen. Women need to unite so that the growing generations of girls are not heavily affected and can assimilate in the male society. A modern day woman should be confident but humble and be able to accept how she looks without having to change herself.

Through the good times and the bad

This class has been a blast! It's one of my favourite classes to be in. I look forward to this class everyday, especially when I'm not having such a great day. I am proud of the fact that I have improved so much. I feel as though I always want to go for a run as a pass time. I believe as I developed my fitness and cardio abilities, I have more fun doing it because I see the results and it feels good not having to stop inbetween all the time. I have gained a lot of strength because of the weight room training that we did, and Iam really proud of it.

During this great semester, I was able to learn a lot. Having great physical health can not only help your health for the future but it also helps mental fitness. I couldn't believe how much mental strength it could take to not give up sometimes. I learnt that eating healthier can also help with physical and mental strength because it gives you the nutrients your body needs after a good work out, such as protien. I find it fun to be active in this class because I'm surrounded by great friends that never let you give up.

Some of my goals for the end of the semester are that I want to achieve at least an eight on the beep test. I have never reached such a high level in all my years of PE at Sullivan Heights.I hope to reach this goal fast because I have a surgery on November 30th and I don't think I'm going to gain much physical activity after it. Even though I have a short period of time, I won't give up in achieving this goal and I will do anything to accomplishing this.
