Today I got some good studying in. I kept going where I left off on calculus and made some progress while I worked. I love being paid to study!
I also attend a calculus review session which helped to point out which sections I should really focus in on.
Third main thing I did today was I did a cover of I'll Make a Man Out Of You, but it was coding related. It's worth up to ten to fifteen points on the final! My friend Billy and I just finished it up and I think that I am going to get started studying for that computer science exam for at least a little bit before I head back home and sleep.

Sunday, relaxation!
So today I tried to get a good start on my finals studying, but I wasn't able to get going. I went when the library opened to start studying for calculus, but I couldn't focus! I did a couple of problems and covered a few sections, but nothing really got moving forward. I feel bad about it, but there is always tomorrow.

Saturday! Yay!
Today has been a good day. The new episode of Korra was fantastic and leaves me wanting to skip forward to next Saturday. Been playing some Project M with some friends, a good day overall.
Currently I'm in the library just doing some formalities for my classes like evaluations etc. Going to start studying some calc pretty soon, that'll make me feel better because I haven't really thought about exams yet. All of mine ended up being on Thursday and Friday so I've got plenty of time to study, but still need to start...

Friday!
So it's Friday and Mrs. Pavletic emailed us and let us know that our wiki grade is up. I checked it and we got an awesome grade! Hooray! I'm still debating if I should rewrite my paper or not at this point, I really don't feel like doing it, but every point on my grade counts!
I need to start studying for exams :P

8AM, it's too early for this...
So Alethia and I just finished up working on our wiki. I'm glad that it is finally done, I just hope we get a good grade...
I was looking over the rubric and there is a section for references which confused me. I emailed Mrs. Pavletic and I hope she can shed some light on the subject. I don't want to miss any major points for something trivial...

Final day of Class!
So we had our final day of class today! YAY!
It went well, there were cupcakes to eat and a wiki to work on. We got an extension to our assignment for Friday afternoon so that was nice. Alethia and I are going to meetup at 8AM in the library to finish everything up. It's going pretty good, just some finishing touches and proof reading is in order.

Reflection Journal
So time to finally sit down and write the reflection part of the journal. I have been writing quick blurbs on what we had done each class period so that when it is all done I can write a couple of paragraphs of reflection. I was initially going to do a quick reflection on each day, but I feel that a larger reflection at the end would be able to give a better idea of what really went down. I hope what I write is what she is looking for!

Getting There!
So today Alethia and I both worked hard on the wiki today. We got all of our links in there and some pictures that actually fit. I'm feeling better about the whole project now so that's always good.
Only problem that I'm running into now is that finals are creeping up on me and I still have to worry about this and another project before I can focus hard on them. Not to mention the Calc test that I have to take in the morning... Fun times all around!

Homework Day...
Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! Watch in awe as you are forced to do homework! Ugg..
Anyway I don't have much homework, but what I have is big stuff. I've got to work a little on the English project to get it rolling and moving in the right direction. Also got the paper rewrite that I need to get an idea for. Got a Computer Science project that is due this week, another group project, that we are meeting up for. On top of all that got some calculus, but at this point it is the least of my problems...

Good relaxing day
Today was a good day. I got up early to watch the new episode of Legend of Korra. It was a great one and I can't wait to see where they take it! I then went to a Brawl tourney where I just ended up doing some friendlies and chilling for a bit. Then went to a friend's house and watched some TV.
Most interesting however would have to be seeing Rocky Horror. Didn't really know what I was getting into, but was at least amusing. Gotta love cult films.

At least it is Friday
So it's Friday and I worked on my rough draft in class. It is going okay, but I need to find a way to implement some links into what I wrote so that it can have some support. I am kinda worried about getting it done on time, but I did talk to Mrs. Pavletic and it is possible to get an extension which I think would help out a lot.
Another thing is the paper rewrite. I did not do so hot on the third paper and I could defiantly use the grade boost, but when looking at my paper my only true problem was that I did not focus so much on the describing the problem. That means that I might have to end up throwing away most of the paper which is aggravating...

Lack of Motivation
I don't know what it is about school almost being over, but i'm so out of it. I don't have any motivation to do anything school related. Finals and coming up and we still have projects to do, yet I still feel like doing nothing.
On the project's note though, got my section quickly written out because that is about all I could get out. Probably not that great, but it is a start...

Outline and Assignments!
Today in class out group laid out what each of us should do using our outline. This probably should have been done a while back, but atleast it got done. Marcelo is leaving on Thursday so he is going to get us his section on Sunday, but Alethia and I are going to get our parts together on Friday. Should be good, but honestly I'm a bit nervous about it all..

Physics Test
Took my physics test today, I think it went pretty well. Most of the material was stuff that I covered in high school, but I'm always a little nervous when taking multiple choice physics test.
On an English related note, I really need to get started on the reflection journal for this unit. That seriously has not happened... Hehe... >.>

Physics Test Clouding my Thinking
Got a physics test tomorrow that I'm studying for. Honestly I don't think it is going to be that bad, but with so few test I don't have much room to fail!
As far as today Marcello and I talked a little about the project, and made sure that both of us understood exactly what we need to do. I am a bit worried about Marcello being gone for a while during this project, but I think that everything will work out.

Reflection Journal
I completely forgot about the reflection journal... I need to start that today. Overall though this project shouldn't be to bad. It is a group project so after we get a solid outline done, dividing up the work should make this so much better! On top of all that we are spending the week just working, so if we put our minds to it we can do it! </cheezycatchphrase>

Good Saturday
Today was a good Saturday, I got some much needed sleep and was able to wash my car! On top of all that Legend of Korra officially premiered. If you are interested, the first two episodes are on iTunes for free. I'd definitely recommend them! I am looking forward to seeing how this show turns out.

Interesting Class Period
Today in class we looked at different wiki pages in order to get a better idea of how ours is to be laid out. This was very helpful as we saw some advantages and disadvantages to different layouts.
Now we just need to get started on the auctual project and start writing it. We have a tentative outline for the project and what we want to mention, but I feel that we should run it by Mrs. Pavletic before we do anything major.

Getting my act together...
Honestly when it comes to school work I need to get it together. Finals are coming up soon and that doesn’t include the couple of upcoming test and the projects that all pile up at the end of the year. I need to spend part of this weekend making a strong plan of attack on all of this and sticking to it. I really need to stop procrastinating and just get a bunch of stuff done...

Pretty Successful Meeting
Today in class we got a lot done! We were able to get a solid topic down and a couple of reasons or explanations as to why the problem still exists. I feel better about this project although I think we need to formulate a plan on exactly who needs to do what and when. That will help out a lot!

Monday...
Alright so today kinda sucked overall. Pretty sure that I failed a computer science test today, so that was wonderful. Other than that today was alright, I mean it is Monday after all...
In terms of the project we still need to come up with a topic. Mrs. Pavletic mentioned the standards difference between high school and college would be a good topic to explore. I am planning on getting a group chat or something together tomorrow to talk and research everything.

Powered Through Some Mike Rose
So I was able to get a good outline of our chapter and some of the prevalent issues that Mike Rose mentions in the chapter. I went ahead and mentioned some of the information that Rose uses to support his claim as well. I think I did a pretty good job if I do say so myself. Now that I have listed my information I am interested to see what my group is able to accomplish and see what questions that we can ask for Friday's online discussion!

Ppprrrooojjeeeccttt GO!
Started looking over our group's assigned chapter. It is a fairly long one with a lot of different ideas in tow. I saw some great ideas for topics to research. I think that we can pull this assignment off I just need to understand a little bit more about what exactly we need to do for the project. That usually comes with time on these things :P

Done!
So I finished my paper with plenty of time to spare today. I'm proud of myself about how I was able to spend some time on Wednesday and tweak that version of the draft. After that I ended up with 6 different drafts, something I am proud of.
Overall though I need to spend less time procrastinating. Even though I was able to change my paper 5 different times, I did it over the course of the week and today I spend a lot of time just lounging. I could have been studying for my calculus test on Tuesday or my computer science test next Monday since I'm going to be out of town all weekend. :/
