I finally finished my This I Believe video this week, and it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off of my shoulders. I think I’ve always known this, but this week really taught me that I will accomplish whatever task I’m given, you just have to give me a deadline. Going into this project, we were told that we’d have about a week to finish it, which I thought wasn’t even close to enough time. This is a reoccurring theme for me. Almost every time I’m given a big project, I become instantly overwhelmed and question my ability to complete it in the time given, especially with any sort of quality. I stress, panic and procrastinate until the night or two before the deadline. This is when I become extremely focused and actually get my work done. I know this is a bad habit, and I need to break it before college, but so far it has worked. After finishing the video, I missed a day of school due to sickness. This was a bummer because I was excited to see everyone else’s beliefs, but I got to watch a few on Thursday when I came back, and I know I could always go on Youtube and see them if I wanted. Next week we will start working on our Pecha Kucha presentations. Right now I know what the main theme of my presentation will be, but I’m not quite sure what my guiding questions are or how I’m going to organize my thoughts. I’m extremely interested in my topic though, and both of books were so eye-opening, so it’ll be interesting to see how everything comes together. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5vzOZ9vpHs
