Have you ever been in a situation where you felt as though your decisions were being made by the group instead of by you? How do you feel about it? What did you learn from it? Has this already occurred at Seneca?

well im gonna have to say yes. last year my group and i did some pretty stupid things. but most of those things we did werent even my idea. i just tagged along and did it with the group. i guess that makes me pretty stupid if i cant even think for myself. because if i said no i wouldnt of been in that group who had to sit out at recess or go to the library to speak to mr carroll. ive learned that i need to get a mind of my own and if i see the group im in is doing something that we'll regret later i should probably back out. so far this hasnt occurred yet, but im predicting it most likely will. hope alls well with you guys. miss you like crazy, i will definitely be visiting.
Yes, I have made decisions based on what my group has done . I really wanted to break apart from there ideas sometimes but I didn't have the confidence. I am begining to get more confidence by my family helping me out. Mr. G also really helped me break apart from following the group all the time when he wrote in my yearbook " Don't change yourself for anyone, and dance to your own music." I think about those words every day and they really help me!I learned from following the group that your not original and not being true to the real you.Why waste your life pretending to make fake desisions and be someone your not.I miss you guys so much! I will visit soon!
Yes, i have made a decision based on what my group has done. sometimes its just because i dont have the confidence or think there decision is better. Since i started seneca i dont have as much of my friends in my classes so its getting easier. liek leah said why pretend to be someone your not. i miss you guys soo much!! i will come visit soon. i wish this class was in high school, cause i sure miss it and its only the first day. -nichole(:
For me it's a definite yes! Not so much anymore, but the first few months of 8th grade, tagging along was all I was good for. Back then I would always try to put in my ideas or saying I didn't want to do something but they always made me feel like I wasn't even that cool enough to be in their prescence. Me always just doing what they wanted me to do made me feel like I had to go with this or have no friends at all, and of course I would always choose to do what they were doing to a certain point. I yes, I always got in trouble for it with mr. caroll, and I always felt stupid because I knew that he knew I wasn't supossed to be there, that made me feel even more like an idiot. Hasn't happened yet in Seneca, thank god.
I miss you guys so much, sorry I didn't make it Tuesday, but I'll remember to give ya that shirt mr. g
Ihave been in that situation but normally if i am or think i am going to be ill just avoid it because then i cant get in trouble. mr g sorry i didnt come see u last tuesday but me jake and john tried bur tim carroll wouldnt let us in because of the meetings, and sorry to ms carr too but i had to go school shopping by that time.
A new bloggg!(: Megan yours is soo good, and I'm really glad you stopped following that one group. I never really got to know you until this year, I wouldn't have gottttin' that chance if you were still on the same path as before! Anyways, I've followed a bad group decision before. But, I can't blame them for all of it because I honestly did have a choice. I just wanted to fit in and I thought that would be the only way to do so. I was wrong and I regret doing what I did, but I can't go back and change it so I just have to make sure I don't make the same mistake. I think I can handle thattt.(: Ohh, and Seneca really doesn't have clicks as much as I thought it would. I've met sooo many more people and only once have I heard a hint of drama! Same person that started it in middle schoool, what a suprise!
I miss this classs): I'm suprised not more people came to post comments. Welll, I hope you guys *Mrs. Carr & Mr. G* are doing amazingggg! Miss you guyss!
I think I'm just going to say "hi" and "what's up?" So... Hi! What's up? Midterms soon... and the Art midterm is already starting. Mr. G I sent you a link to a video through YouTube and you never answered. Watch it please? -Dan Fink
hey mr g and ms carr! I just thought I'd say hi! we have midterms next week, and it's all half days. So i want to try to get some people from 211 to come and visit! I miss this class SO much, you should put a new blog question up! aannd, are you doing a blog with mrs campeaus class? -Emilee Maira (:
Word cant even begin to express how much i miss every little thkng about this class. I miss everybody in it. It kills me that we are all in a bigger school with more kids than ever and i still feel lonier than ever, which is really my fault, i should have taken more time outside of school to do things with friends and not spent so much time working. I never felt as good about myself as i did every morning walking into this class, you could be yourself and not have to worry about it. In highschool ive had so many identities I dont remember who i am. I need to find someone who i feel good with and about to get my mind straight and just be myself again. We need to have a room 211 reunion soon. Kyle Abrams.
