Today Faith worked on our Prezi during her English period, and I reviewed it/added to it. We figured out that we are going to focus on just a few things when educating our audience about drugs. We are going to show a lot of videos and pictures so that we grab peoples' attention with graphic pictures and interesting

Today I did more research on drugs. I looked at a lot of pictures and videos of peoples' personal stories. I learned about what it was like to be on different drugs and what it did to them mentally and physically both long term and short term. Faith and I are planning on including s a lot of "scary" pictures and facts so that we grab the audience's attention. Lately we've both been just doing a lot of research on drugs. We are planning on using the information that we have learned to share with the class when we present.

Now that I know who is in my group for the senior project and we know what topic we are going to research, today's task was finishing up our proposal. After reading the rubric, I tried to the best of my ability to create a proposal to demonstrate what, who, and how we were planning on completing our project. After typing a rough-draft on Google Docs I allowed Faith access to it so she could include some of her ideas and goals for the project. By the end of this week we have made a great proposal that displays our vision of what we want to achieve, and how we are going to complete our Senior Project. Making the proposal was today's main accomplishment.

Today I figured out whose group I was in and started to have an idea of what the subject of our project would be. Previously, I was going to be in a group with Izabella, Jory, Emmy, Faith, and Kyle. I felt that this was way too many people to be working on the senior project. Plus, none of us shared one interest that we would want to focus on when doing our project. This is why I've decided to be in a group with just Faith. We are friends, we work well together, and we both wanted to focus our senior project on something that we were passionate about or that we could both relate to. After brainstorming we thought of doing our project on drug awareness because we basically feel the same way about drugs, and we both share a friend who has been affected by drug abuse. Figuring out who my partner was and finding a topic were today's main accomplishments.

Previous to this English class, I have taken the normal English classes throughout my educational career (9A, 9B, 10A, 10B, 11A, 11B, 12A). In my other English classes I liked "free writing" or "creative writing" and SSR. I did not like being assigned to read books that I did not find interesting, learning about grammar, and doing a lot of essays. Regarding my past writing experiences, I enjoyed writing about things that I was interested in or things that related to my personal life. It is much easier to write about things that I actually care about. I don't like writing long essays or writing about things that I find boring. Writing about topics that I don't know anything about and/or don't care about have often created barriers for me when it came to writing assignments I had in the past.
 * MY ENGLISH EDUCATION HISTORY**

Kitters Who spreads joy throughout everyone's life with just his presence. And asks simply to by caressed by a human's hands. Who is soft like a bear rug in a rich man's study that's laying in front of the fireplace. Whose stature is slim and weak, like that of a model striving for perfection, Is warm like a freshly baked muffin that just came right from the oven. Who tells his past, present, and future through the aspect of his simple body language. Who tells people he's hungry by making foreign noises that roll of the tip of his tongue. Whose paws are small, dainty, and quick, like the fingers of an experienced secretary. Who used to shed tears and horrible groans when using the litter box. Is perfect like the nails of a commoner that have designs painted by a poor-English speaking Asian. Doesn't enjoy hearing the loud muffled sounds that erupt from the vacuum cleaner. Is a majestic feline full of wonder, delight, curiosity, and love. Who is the t to my shirt, the tooth to my past, the back to my pack. Is my everything. Who is the one and only man that I could ever count on. Is what get's me through the hardest of times and over the largest of obstacles. Asking for love and affection, of which I am always available to supply him with at all times. Who is my cat, my Kitters.
