Week 2, Day 10 of Senior Project!

My internet keeps cutting in and out so I am going to have to make this blog short so that I ensure it will be posted!

Today was a bit hectic, as I was busy all day with other things besides my Senior Project. It was a little crazy at times with me trying to fit in senior project hours with other responsibilities, but I managed to somehow complete everything that needed completing! Everything always seems to work out.

I woke up really early today; I had to drive my dad to work so that I would be able to have the car for the day. I was up at 6:30 and by the time I got home from driving my Dad, it was about 8:00. From 8:00 –9:30, I worked on various restaurant reviews, adding and subtracting elements of the reviews that I wasn’t happy with. Each review is really beginning to articulate the fine points of each restaurant and I think our readers will be very pleased. It’s actually quite difficult to find 20 different ways to say the food is “delicious” and that the atmosphere is “welcoming”!!! My list of vocabulary, especially adjectives, has definitely grown during senior project. Also, I figure that if I edit and try and perfect each review now, it will save a lot of time in the next couple of days.

I wasn’t able to work again until after 3:00. At 3:30, I drove over to Proctor to try and find Michele and drop off my weekly time sheets, but Michele wasn’t there. However, I am sure I will see her again very soon so I have nothing to worry about. I slipped Erin and my own time sheet underneath Michele’s door.

From the time I got home, 4:00, up until 8:00, I worked on writing and editing reviews, finding the additional scrapbook paper we need to complete our binder (I found very little), and finishing the selection of which pictures should and shouldn’t be in the binder. For me, today was mostly a day of tying up loose ends and polishing what I have done on this project thus far. It’s getting down to crunch time, and although I feel a bit stressed, the confidence and time invested in our project overrides all my nerves.

I will be staying the weekend at Erin’s house and we both plan to do a lot of work while together!

Until then –
