Week 3
We worked on our projects, however we haven't been in the library for a while. We presented scholarships. Kind of useless right now, I'm not interested in applying for scholarships until my grade 12 year. I was away on Tuesday (16), helping with grade 9 day. I haven't read a lot of my books, however i find another book I'm reading more interesting. I wonder if it will serve sufficient for my ISU...

Week 2
We started working on our criticism projects. Seems like there's not enough to fill 70 minutes. I picked up both my ISU books and have started to read them. We talked briefly on scholarships.
