In March 13 was valleyball tournament. In tournament was participating 5 teams. Our team take second place. It was good experience because in tournament was teams with which we had never played before. We do not how every team is playing so their tacktic was unpredictable. I am proud of my team because we played as real collective team matches and supported each other.

From February 3th to 10th I was participating in Erasmus + project. We spend one week in France in Paris in families. The topic of project is “Movement” so we related our activities with this topic. During visit I had to move with plain, train, car, subway, bus, electric bike and basic on foot. It was great to try some new ways of moving practical because we do not have some of them in our city. Also, we were participating in lectures and workshops related with mobility.

One of workshop was bike repairing. This workshop was really interesting and useful but unfortunately our group did not make any conclusion of that. I think that we could evaluate our job in plenary session but we did not.

I participated in activity where my group needed to find the way of traveling around our Erasmus project countries cities (Hamburg, Paris, Milan, Athens, Vilnius, Porto) which would be friendly for environment. This activity was really interesting but my group was very relaxed and I could say that I worked alone. However, I enjoyed this activity but not my group partners who were talking in their native language. So, I think that organizer of this activity could be more strict.

Also, we were participating in wheelchair activity where we needed to look how infrastructure for people with disabilities is adapted. Idea of wheelchair tour was amazing but not very successful. We were struggling because of strike in Paris, so we were waiting in center about 1 hour and have not enough time to explore the city. Anyway, we saw that infrastructure for people with disabilities should be improved. For this activity organizer should think more about details such as traffic hour and others.

We attended in more activities but these are most momentous for me. We saw not only Paris city but also we traveled to Brussels. In Brussels we were exploring city and took a trip around European Parliament. We saw how sessions in parliament are going and one of spokesman introduced about parliamentarians job. We asked them some questions about mobility in future and about solving problems related with pollution, refugees, infrastructure for people with disabilities. Trip in parliament was really great experience.

In conclusion, I enjoyed visit in Paris. My friend Constance was very kind and friendly. So I am very happy that I had a chance to communicate with her. Also, I feel benefits of activities because some of them was really useful. I improves my communication, English, orientation skills and enrich my perception of movement. Visit in Paris was successful despite some organisation errors.

In our school our volleyball team decided to create tournament between school girls. In tournament were participating 4 teams from different classes. Out team won all matches and we take first place. Usually I go in volleyball twice a week, so it was a great chance to prove my skills.

Today I were participating in table tennis tournament. It was Team Tournament which was organizated to win our city table tennis cup. I with my team members Emilija and Viktorija won the tournament. In this event participated 5 teams from different schools so to win this tournament was not easy chalange. Also, I trained in this sport long time ago so it was the factor wich complicated my gameing skills. Anyway, I am happy and proud of myself because I have a chance to contribute for our school team fortune.

I’m still do not leave my hobby behind. This time the painting was different because I painted with watercolor not with gouache. To paint with watercolor was quite difficult because for this technique need to manage with amount of water and watercolor amount. I think that the main mistake of my working was too thin paper. For next time I would take the thicker paper because painting with watercolor require it. Anyway, I think that my painting is not bad for the first time of this technique.

Almost every day I walk from school on feet. Sometimes I’m a little bit lazy and do not want to do that but I have no choice. Anyway, walking for me is one of the way to relax, fresh my minds. Also walking is type of cardio so I can say that I’m exercising. Of course I walk not only because I need get to home but also volunteraly. For example, today I took my dog with me and go to the forest. As we can see in the photo below promenade was fantastic because the weather was beautiful and view was like from picture.

Liberal organization before Christmas organised brain battle which was Christmas edition. We were supposed to form the team which would consist of IB students and we almost did it. We created team which was named “Bitutės“ of  few IB students: Emilija, Austėja, Domantas and me and one student of our gymnasium Matas. The brain battle questions were quite difficult  but our team afford in second place of seven. The battle consist of 3 tours: films, songs and Christmas traditions. First and second tour passed pretty good because our team members are interested in that. Tour of Christmas traditions was the hardest one because questions were about various countries traditions and we lack of information. This brain battle showed that Christmas have interesting traditions which formed from ancient times and remembered that this celebration is not only around presents but also supposed to values. I think this event helped me to promote creativity, sociable and watchfulness.

Before Christmas our class decided to share tea and cookies for our school students before Christmas. During the break we made tea, bring cookies and shared them. I was happy because students were grateful and surprised. Also I proud of myself because I had a chance to share with other students little things which helped them to feel festive mood. In that they we shared not only material but also goodness and kindness. I think this activity was useful because of students cooperation. Also we showed that IB students should integrate themselves in school community.

I with my class decided to surprise and rejoice children from children day center. We planned our program and shared who will be responsible for particular activities. I chose to lead games and help to decorate cookies. Before visit I find some games witch would be interesting for children. To find games which would be interesting for children was quite difficult because I didn’t know which games are interesting for younger children. But everything happen smoothly and children was involved. Also, during activities I improved my guiding and teaching skills. I fell happy because I shared kindness.

 

In September I started to go on boxing training and still improve my boxing skills. Usually I go to boxing twice a week. At the begging was hard to motivate myself because after the summer I was relaxed and unbalanced. But now I am happy that I chose this sport because it helps my release my energy, relax minds, promote self-confidence. Also, I proud of myself because I learned some twists of the wrist which could be useful for protection. Anyway, despite boxing advantages I still sometimes miss training because of time shortage.
