week 13

This week we presented our 20% project. Even though Alex and I mostly worked on the presentation and Nadia did some little editing as well as Andrew. Some us worked well together, but we ended up finishing right on time. We didn't prepare as good as I had hoped and planned, but since we all knew what we had done it was easy for us to just talk about it in front of class. I admit that my presentation kind of sucked mostly from me, but I suppose that's what i get for not being completely organized. Overall with this project I learned about leadership skills and organization skills as well as learning that you have to work well with others even if you don't really want to that you have to learn to believe in others to succeed as a whole group. Although our project was about teen health I mostly used this project to learn many different techniques that will be useful in life. for example learning how to balance out time and friends, knowing how to control myself when I'm with friends having fun but also doing work, I learned how to teach others how to use different soft wares while expanding my own computer skills, and most of all I learned how to work well with others and guiding my group towards success.

week 12

Well at this point Alex and I where really stressed out about our presentation. Not knowing how or what we where going to do. Although we all had busy schedules we where able to finish in time. I admit its not the best presentation or what I had in mind, but its all we could do with the little time we had due to having other work to do. I think we all learned that we should use our time wisely and not procrastinate. Although in the end I believe we did an acceptable job. I'm glad that we finished our 20% project, but we wont continue it because it takes up too much time and we don't even think people will look at our website. I'm surprised that we actually accomplished what we wanted to do, knowing my group you would have doubted also, but I'm glad and proud of my group.

Week 11

So this week I can say that we did more progress compared to others. We finally decided on who's doing what and when we are doing it. Although Andrew has shown no interest on helping at all. It's true that he finished the final touches for the video, but that's just because I had to talk him into it to make sure he actually does something that we can present. Anyways I was reading over the blogs of my group members and I realized that Andrew has been lying about talking with us, he has no idea what we are doing and I have tried to include him in conversations but he's being rude and disrespectful lately. I understand that my relationship with him is not as before, but I'm not letting it get in the way of my school work like he is. If I hadn't made him do the final touches on the video I would have kicked him out already due to his lack of effort. Although I wont be that mean, because I don't want him to fail. So Nadia, Alex, and I have decided that Alex will start the prezi and do the outlines, so then I can go on and put in information and not have to worries about designing it. I will include screenshots of our website and a trailer of our recipe video. In the screen shots I will separate them by each of our projects. I was also thinking of including what each of us leaned. For example I learned leadership skills as well as organization skills and how my group members each learned how to use technology a little bit further.

week 10

This week me and my group members did absolutely no talking in class about our project, but I have some ideas on how we will be doing our presentation for our 20% project. I want to make it inspiring, entertaining, and funny. I'm planning to include a little trailer of the healthy recipe that we did and also show the progress that we have done in our website. I will have to edit some stuff on the website or I'll tell someone to do it..Probably Alex I trust her the most..Shh. After I finished the last blog, I went to go look at the recipe video that was finished by Andrew and I wasn't able to open it. I think its probably because he didn't publish it like a movie, even though I told him to. Well I will have to discuss that with him tomorrow. Hopefully I remember and hopefully he does it correctly.

week 9

This week me Nadia and I discussed what we will present for our 20% project. We came to the conclusion that we will discuss a little about our teen health website and then we will show a piece of our healthy recipe video.I haven't really done much with my group they don't seem to be as enthusiastic about the presentation as I am. They seem a little down due to all the testing and school work even though this is also school work, but oh well. I have tried my best, but sometimes I don't wanna try to hard enough to force them..I feel like I have to hold their hands to finish something..Which I guess I'm OK with since I don't want our group to fail. So, with that said, I plan to get ideas from my group members to contribute to the presentation. I don't think there's anything else we can do. Since we already made the website and published it and we made a healthy recipe video...Which reminds me that I have it finished... I'll post it in the next blog or this one...Anyways this weekend I will focus on the presentation and try to think of a way to make it funny and entertaining even if it i have to embarrass myself in front of class. I will team up with Alex to start the presentation so we can take turns working on it and sharing ideas, because I don't know what's been going on with Andrew lately and well Nadia doesn't have stable internet so we tent to just share ideas in class. Even though we have all
separated a bit i will try to put the pieces together for the sake of our grade and for the success of our 20% project.

week 8

Sadly I haven't done anything with my group.We haven't really talked about anything about our 20% project. I feel awful, although I know other groups anything either, but I still feel bad, We where doing fine up til the whole testing and the CST, AP, and SAT.....These test are what have made me so stressed out and unorganized. Also its not just in this class its in most of my classes that i have been lagging on I've mostly been trying to focus on my AP Spanish class..Anyways about the project I have recently made up my mind that I'm not going to do most of the work anymore. I have decided to ask Andrew to edit the final touches and do some voice overs for the video on the recipe. Since he doesn't have SAT or AP tests to worry about like me and Nadia do...So, I hope he does as he promises and doesn't let the group down..Also hoping he does a good job..

week 7

These past few weeks have been the most stressful days in my life. I have been the most busy and worried I have been ever. I did say in my last blog that I will do the final touches and I have failed to do that. I feel very awful about that, I am sorry. So this week I will edit the video and finish it to post it here and in our website. Everyone in my group have been really busy lately, but we have to think positively to keep on going witch I will be doing when i talk to my group. I think I have learned a lot about a lot of stuff while doing this project. I would also really like to know your opinions on the video on the healthy meal recipe. I think my group members would really like to know as well as I.
