Personal Blog#5

Last week we had to present in front of the Arrowhead school board and boy was that interesting! I was nervous and freaking out before we presented because I can't stand to present to my own class mates so like I knew I couldn't do it in front of 5+ people who is very important to Arrowhead! Though in the end we did great! We knew what we were talking about and answered all the questions the best we could and I wasn't even nervous until after we presented! All in all it was pretty fun! Other than that it was a pretty short week and we spent the two days before our big presentation practicing and preparing for our presentation.

This week has been interesting. Trying to get the new project done and Acceptance at once is stressful. The new project is going great though! Lauren and I work well together and are getting a lot of things done. Today was confusing on how to put our information into a data table! That will be interesting. We have almost everything done we just have to finish the data table and finish with the presentation! Im very extremely insanely scared to present in front of the school board! I have always been scared to present in front of people and it doesn't help that my partner hates presenting too! Now presenting should be very interesting!

The field trip to apple was soo awesome! I grew up with Macs because my grandpa ran MacCetera and he was very well known by everyone at the Apple store. When we went to the Apple store it brought back many memories of him, it was also awesome to be able to try out the new iPad 2 and the new iPhone coming out, getting a tour in the back room was way cool because I always wondered what was back their. It's insane how 6 people run a bunch of the sales and goes to schools to help pay or make a deal on getting a bunch of Macs.
On the other hand reading Acceptance is getting too crazy. Trying to finish it by Wednesday plus get two projects done and my other subjects homework done is getting frustrating and really stressful. Acceptance is a pretty good book. It's starting to encourage me early to get into some classes or activities that look good on collage apps and get good grades for them. The book is also getting me really nervous for senior year!

Personal Blog#2

This week had been pretty laid back and nice! I love the fact that the teachers are giving us a lot of work time which also gets me frustrated to see other students fooling around or not taking the time and using it wisely so I'm nervous that the teachers will take the time away which will make life so much more difficult for me. The recent project that the teachers assigned to us was the product testing project and my partner and I basically finished the whole project except the conclusion, analysis, and the graph. The commercial, the experiment, and the research went really well and got that cranked out within the first two/three days. I'm also extremity excited to go on the field trip to Apple! My grandpa was such a Mac geek and he knew just about everyone that worked there and his friend works there now. My whole family is in love with Apple so the fact that I get to go there and work with some of the employees is awesome and my families pretty jealous.
