A Slight Change of Plans

As you may or may not know, I am extremely excited to start my senior project.  I have everything in order.  This project has been approved by my principal, I have all the necessary paperwork and a pen laying right next to me as I type, and I have my in-school advisor all set up and ready to go.  However, I have one slight problem.

I have no idea who my OUT-of-school advisor will be.
 
How can I do my project if I don't have one of the most important factors of it?  So!  To make my life a little easier, I am going to start this project on September 10th.  This not only gives me time to decide and contact my out-of-school advisor, but also works best with my upcoming schedule.

My Upcoming Schedule Includes
- Working at the State Fair.  Who knows if I'll have Internet access! -
- Coronation and Homecoming -
- My 18th birthday and senior picture clothes shopping -
- LOTS of extremely hard homework -
- TONS of quizzes, exams, and tests -
 
My schedule also include plans to cure cancer, student procrastination, and that awkward feeling you have when you know you are making pitiful excuses...


I know, I know.  The only legitimate excuse I have is the first one- I can't journal on the Internet if the Internet isn't there!  And I do feel very sad and guilty that I have to change the date I start this project.  I mean, I chose to start this project in September because I knew it was going to be a busy month for me.

I just want to make sure that every entry I make in this journal will be an interesting, thought provoking one.  Quality is my number one concern.  Oh, and the whole out-of-school mentor thing...SEE!  I forgot I needed to get one of them AGAIN!

My last subject of business is how this effects the rest of my dates.  To make this as easy, informative, and entertaining as possible, I will list the dates off in a short list and color them!  Here goes:

  • September 10th- I will start my project FOR SURE.
  • October 11th- I will be done with my 31 day project.  This will be the latest day you can start your own journals.
  • November 12th- This will be the last day I'll accept jounrals.  (I slipped in one extra day for you- so I don't feel so guily about slipping in one extra week :D )
Alrighty.  With all that said and done, I'm going to bed.  (I started this post at 11:00 P.M.  It is now 12:11 A.M.  Boy, I talk a lot...)  I'll talk to you next time...and next time I WILL have an out-of-school advisor!!
