Joey's home page  1. How are things going with your Senior Project?


 * Falling behind schedule
 * Having some trouble with certain pieces
 * Making Great Progress
 * Moving Along Fine
 * Stuck and need help


 * < I'm just about finished. I just need help with the whole documenting and webpage business. ||

2. How and when are you working effectively on this project? If you had the last month to do over again, what would you do differently? Why?


 * Well, I went to Seattle a couple weeks ago, so I doubt I would do anything differently. Like I said, now I just need to finish up. ||

3. What kinds of decisions have you found yourself making recently? Have they been good decisions? What are you learning about how you make decisions and what kind of effect these decisions have on your learning?


 * Decisions? Well, choosing what to do after high school isn't that big of a deal. When I went to Seattle, I did get a good look at some back up plans if my military plans fall through. But I'm far enough along in my Senior year, that I am TOTALLY over the whole "learning" thing. I just want to be done and out. ||

4. What did you learn about yourself—your working style, your interests, etc?


 * Well, my interests haven't changed. My working style... I've kinda narrowed it down to "I feel a natural rebellion against doing things that I feel won't help me in my future. Meaning, unfortunately, that a good majority of my school work has become less than pointless. ||

5. What did you learn about your topic/subjects that you didn’t know before? What connections among the various things you have studied and researched do you see? Have you had any “aha” moments? What were they and how did they affect you?


 * I learned that Seattle is a far more fascinating and interesting city than I had imagined and I would like to see my life end up there at some point. I got a chance to see a lot of the old parts of the city that I remember researching for my research paper. It was funny because as my aunt was explaining, I could finish a lot of her sentences because I knew a lot of what she was saying already. ||

6. How have you used your advisor or mentors feedback? How have you implemented their suggestions into your project?


 * I haven't exactly been in good contact with my advisor as far as this project goes. I guess I just got the vibe that I can do this myself. But I need to have a meeting with her. ||
