Before I leave

Before I leave,  I'm not going to really have Internet or phone service when I'm gone,  so I won't be working on my project while I'm traveling. But I'll make sure to take pictures for the project.

Memories

Looking back at all these pictures, trying to collect them, has brought back so many memories. Some good and some not so much. All I have to do is print the pictures and put it together, so I'll send the pictures after my cruise to continue the process.

Sooo..

This past week, I got out and about more, aka working more and focusing more on my academics. After I get back from my cruise, I'm going to start gathering a scrapbook and start printing pictures. After all this project is about what I enjoy doing, and i enjoy being with my friends and have no hobbies, I'm really excited for this project's outcome !

Truth Be Told

I've been busy all week with work and my home life i haven't really been able to do much. With the project being due soon and myself going on a cruise soon,  I have to buckle down and work super hard on this.

Busy bee

This week, I went through all my pictures that I've taken throughout senior year. It was a he eat thing for me to do considering it was a rough week and a lot of pictures were of my friend I no lo ng er talk to. But I plan on going and taking more pictures with my friends and going out more and more. I'm actually really excited for this project to be complete for a great outlook on senior year.

Things are Getting Hectic

This week, I realized that I needed to change my topic because it can't really be created into anything else besides extensive research and not really putting together anything tangible.
With senior year flying by fast and capturing memories of it with pictures, was my better option with time running out. So, I decided that whether it is good memories, or bad memories
I'm going to create a memory book and write something positive about that time.

Busy week

This week was a busy week for me. Although I did some research during class, I didn't have much time to do outside research about the topic due to work and studying for finals.

With the class time that I used, I found out that the Victoria secret fashion show is going to be on in the next couple days. People watch it and some who watch it feel like they should look like the models, who are extremely thin and unhealthy.
Does the fashion industry promote mental illnesses ? Some believe so, and i agree with them.

A Sense Of Direction

I was looking into different ways to approach the topic I would like to cover. I've decided that I'm going to do something dealing with the mental illness, specifically eating disorders and how it affects people and things that promote and or influence it. I am aware that this is a harder topic and it requires a lot of work but I want to do something with it. I want to go into the psychology field and specialize in mental illness, so this could be beneficial. 

I have a source that is willing to help me, but wants to stay anonymous, and said that they could give insight to what it's like to struggle from an eating disorder and have self image issues. I would like to not base my project off of them, but use them along with information I gather online.
I spent this past week researching the different types of eating disorders and things that either promote it and or demote it. The media actually plays a part in eating disorders, showing stick thin actors and actresses on tv or in magazines, creates a thought process of thin is beautiful and if it's any other way, then you aren't acceptable. 
Nobody should think that.

Uncertainty

This past week, I spent looking up different things. I'm still not entirely set on what I would like to do for my 20% project. I've thought about doing something related to dancing, like taking dance lessons and then performing it upfront of a crowd amongst other people doing other things, along with the eating habits they have.  I've also thought about cutting fast food's food out of my diet but considering I work in a fast food place, it makes that ten times more difficult. So, I was leaning towards making better food choices and health related things, like healthy foods and try to present them differently so all types of people would enjoy to eat it. It would benefit not only myself but everyone who are picky eaters based on appearance. My plan is to make a book demonstrating like a cookbook. 
But, I am still uncertain on what I would like to do.
