This week I had my biggest battle with senioritis and sadly I feel as though I lost the battle. When presented the idea of this project in my head I thought this seems like a lot of work and I don't really see the point to it. But as this class has showed me many times before, even if it feels as though we're straying from the main goal of the AP test we are always able to draw it back in. Many times I don't see how I have grown and the importance of the project until I have completed it. Something that I have found more of in this class than any other is how proud I feel of the work I have completed and excitement I feel over projects. However I have been having a hard time finding the excitement and the motivation to get through this project as I see the year is quickly coming to a close, the main thing I can think about is the finish line, also how tired I am. This week I learned the importance of a strong, disciplined mind and how I need to fight the lazy part of myself that just wants to lay on the couch and watch It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia but I really need to be reading and doing my math homework. I also should go to bed at a reasonable time to be awake enough to actually learn at school. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/kat-cohen/truth-about-senioritis_b_9040680.html

As I did my work in class I began to get excited about how at the beginning of the trimester something that started as just a broad idea that I was vaguely interested in because I had to find something, turned into a intricate and exciting project. As I continued to look for outside sources I was excited to see how I would have many small "eureka!" moments. I felt as I invested more time my project I started to feel more invested and passionate about my project. Take away from this week and even writing this week's blog is I need to discipline myself and my mind to not talk as much and get my work done before I can go have fun with my friends. I feel as though senioritis is really sinking in at the |
