Challenge day

This week’s blog will be in inspiration of challenge day that we recently had at our high school. Challenge day relates to my topic of writing because of the bullying and everything else we have discussed. Some of you are probably thinking what challenge day is, we had three days with one hundred kids per day, to change the lives of 300 lives and pass it on to everyone else. you go right when you get to school to the gym is where we had ours, they begin with games to loosen the crowd up, and also with DANCING, who does not like dancing and music, music itself is really inspiring to all. With the games they have a sly way of changing it around to where people are getting to know you without you actually talking to a big group of people. After all these games have loosened you up you’ll then go to small families. These will be who you talk to for the day.  The small families consisted of 6 or 7 people, but with a bigger high school they may have been bigger. In these families you share your story; you say things that if they really knew you they’d know this. It gets emotional after a while and you find out how little you actually know about someone. When everyone first heard about this they were like this going to be stupid and I don’t wanna do this. You get maybe two breaks over the whole course of this. Then you have lunch, after lunch we go back to having more emotional talks. Then what happens closer to the end is the line. The line is the most intense part of the day. They have a line and if this has ever happened to you cross the line. When all these people cross the line you start thinking about how wrong you were to judge them, even your friends cross the line and you’re like wow really, and you’re so surprised they are crossing the line. It is so emotional for everyone. Then towards the end you write a letter, then there’s time to read those or to make apologies to anyone in there that you have hurt. They give you a microphone to do this and you’re like do I really want to do this and if not then there’s time after everyone who wanted to share shares to go around and apologize in private to whoever you have hurt. It shows how words really hurt and all that someone needs is someone to listen and care about them, just two minutes is all it takes. I recommend talking to someone that you’ve never talked to before and see if they need someone to listen. All in all it was one of the best days of my schooling that I have truly enjoyed and never thought it would actually be that good. Everyone deserves a second chance a chance to be a kid and have that freedom; everyone deserves some type of love. If you ever need to talk to me even if I don’t know you comment on my blog and we can go from there may be a text or a phone call, I am never too busy to help out someone who needs it.
