I have learned many songs on the piano, but the hardest in which of what I have learned and played would have to be Frolic (Curb Your Enthusiasm Theme). The song's tempo is 148 BPM, which is way out of my comfort zone. Most of the songs I've played are significantly less. In addition, the tempo being out of my comfort zone was one of the reasons in which I had attempted to learn the song in the first place. Another reason to why I decided to learn the song on piano is because one of my friends sent me a meme which contained the song in it. In all, it isn't the entirety of the song, but with how quickly I learned it in a span of an hour is beyond me. This also taught me the lesson that I've always been following in which to never give up. I have attempted to give up on the song after realizing that the BPM was 148, nearing 150, which turned me down from the song. That's when it hit me, I had learned to play a song which a near BPM to Frolic with 135 and that led me to learn the specific part of the song in which was shown in the meme my friend had shown me.
During the Aztec Expo, I did several activities, but one of the ones I participated in was selling nachos for the IB Club. We sold them for a dollar and an extra fifty cents with jalapenos added on. My job when volunteering was to basically take people's money and give them back change if need be. All in all, this was the system: I took money and gave back change (if need be), my friends Cristobal and Lupe handled preparing and handing out the nachos. In addition, there was someone else who handled the tallying of how many nachos we sold and which ones we sold. I made sure she tallied them correctly. Ultimately, this led to the requirement of complete synchronization and cooperation. This was extremely fun.
At the Aztec Expo, other than selling nachos for IB Club, afterwards I promoted the Korean Pop and Culture Club. In the gym, we had a booth in which we handed out stickers out. This in turn also lead for me to converse with others, which, even though I did something similar for IB Club the year previous, I was still nervous on talking to people. This is where I learned my introverted energy is going to be a pain in the near future if I don't get it together. In addition, I did manage to cooperate with the others, which I was already familiar with so I had no issue there. But through all of this, I learned that the process and skills one must know and have when it comes to these voluntary things has a toll on myself and my social battery is easily drained. I can improve on this by just talking more basically anywhere where groups are involved and such.
