Crap.

So I just read Emily's blog.... and I honestly feel no motivation to get a lot done for this project. Which is kind of really scaring me. I don't want to succumb to to senioritis!! I guess that just means I am actually going to have to do work on it, just to prove to myself I can overcome it...

4/1/12

Hmmmmm... I'm not sure what to think. Because I really, really like the hike idea but what everyone is saying really makes sense about it not having much of an impact on our community. Crappers. Well, I'm not much of a decision maker in this class, I'm pretty much up for whatever so whatever is chosen I will be up for. But if we make any plans for the weekend of April 21st... I will not go. I want to go visit Sarah at Central :D haha off topic.... but yes, I am excited for our senior project!

I am so happy not to have school tomorrow! It will be awesome to sleep in for a change. Someone posted something about the our senior project and I agree with the fact that we need to make sure that it has a community impact because it will be fun for us but there should be substance to this project and we need to find a way to make an impact. Tonya talked to me about the 28th and 29th of April for the camp out but we need to look at all of the sports schedules and find a date that works for everyone. Hope ya'll have a great spring break! See ya in a week!

STOP RUBBING IT IN

Yes, i know you guys have only 40 days left, and I'm happy for all of you, BUT I DON'T! I still have one year left in this place...D:

sb

I feel Like I am going to take this week and devote it to college english. I really want to get ahead this week so I'm not super stressed for the end of the year. I mean common, we only have like 40 more days of highschool left, I really dont want to spend it being stressed about this class. Therefore for once in my life I am going to attempt to not be a procrastinator.. hmm we will see how that goes..

senior hike

I feel like the senior class project hike would be really awesome, but I am a little worried that its not really giving anything back to the community. I really think that we need to make sure that we are going to have a clear mission statement or purpose with this whole adventure. I feel like we also need to take what we learn from this trip and apply it to our lives, like begin to live simpler if we are going to really make a difference within in our community. We always talk about how it just takes one, we need to start to be that one.

Ruth-May

One interesting thing I noticed when Ruth-May died was that Kingsolver didn't make a big deal out of it, it just happened. Even though Ruth-May dying was the last straw when Orleanna finally took the rest of her family and left Nathan, there are just short little chapters about how she died and how Orleanna dealt with it and then they leave. It wasn't even Ruth-May narrating when she died, just one second they're checking on the chicken coop and the next, she's dead.
