At The Finish Line

Hello Viewers,
        I can't believe this is the last time I'll be blogging about this project! It's been a long 4 month journey containing several ups and downs (mostly downs). But it's nearly over; all that lies ahead is the presentation, and my nerves are continuing to grow for that. I've accomplished so much for this project, and I'm happy with the result. Below, I've pasted a screenshot of what my final presentation is going to look like for Tuesday night.
        Throughout this project, I have been able to obtain information that should be very useful to me throughout the next couple years considering I'm planning to attempt to be recruited for college basketball.
        During the duration of this project, I've learned a lot about myself as a student and a worker. I learned that I procrastinate for an unhealthy amount of time which could end up resulting catastrophic in the future. I'm aware that I need to fix that now. Secondly, I found out that when I really put myself to it, I can produce high level work.
        What's been frustrating to me about this project is just that it's a pretty decent amount of work to be completed in the middle of several other projects for several other classes. So it was just difficult to stay caught up and prioritize this project when there were so many others.
        My advice for next years students is to really pick a subject that you have a passion for. A quote that supports this is one by Aristotle. I thought I'd past a picture of it written below for more emphasis.
        This quote supports what I said because it means that if you pick a topic that you really enjoy, it'll be feeding and educating your heart as well as your mind. But if there was one thing that I could've done differently throughout this entire project it would be that I should've prioritized this project more and spent more time producing my best work for it. That is another piece of advice that I have for next year's sophomore class; stay on track! If you stay on track and complete each project on time, you have a much better chance of enjoying the project and succeeding on it. But ultimately, I'm proud of what I accomplished throughout this project and I will take what I learned on with me for a long time. Thank you all for reading my blogs! I hope you enjoyed reading them as much as I enjoyed writing them.
