PSA

This whole week my group worked on our PSA'S at first I felt very discouraged with our topic and I felt it was impossible to create something meaningful. But after getting a chance to sit down and listen to other people's ideas it didn't seem too difficult. After drawing out the story board the concept made sense and I felt like it wasn't that hard at all. We wrote out all of the quotes on  white paper and we started filming. I stepped out of my comfort zone and decided to go ahead and be in the PSA. At first I was a little uncomfortable, but I was okay with it. I was very happy with going outside of my comfort zone and do something, I wouldn't normally do. We also got two more student and Mr. Eastwood in our PSA.

Things I've learned

On Thursday, we had the chance to talk to Kevin Beaty. He had done many great things, which makes him very successful. Which really inspires me to do many of the things he has done. I am planning on making thank you notes to my mentor and everyone who was involved in my passion project. Another thing that made me motivated was how, Kevin did what he loved doing even if it did pay him well. It really shows how much he loves what he does and it's not just for the money. I liked how he keeps his social media up to date, and makes sure to uploads daily on Instagram for his audience. Which makes me want to maybe start a Facebook page, to help my cause. I also learned that college is not going to determine what exactly I'm going to do for the rest of my life. That also most jobs are more concerned about experience than GPA.

Community Ptich Outcome

On Thursday, we had a community pitch. Where we had to present our passion projects to the parents and students, and what our end goal is. So I was pretty excited about that. So we prepared for the community pitch by presenting it amongst one another and I felt pretty confident about my project. I made my title eye catching and a play on words so I called it " A Cause For Paws ". I was surprised with the amount of support I got from many people. Many were very excited and supportive with my project, and we're excited to see the finished product. I was very encouraged by all the nice things people have said about my passion project, it really motivated me to try my best to make the best out of my passion project. So that's my goals, to try my best by raising as u h money possible for the animal shelter.

A Cause For Paws

This week I've been planning on exactly where and when I'm going to make a fundraiser. I'm going to make a bake sale sometime this month or next month. I'm also thinking about starting a drive. I went on the Humane Society's website and looked through their wishlist. They needed simple things like paper towels and wipes. Things that I feel are easy to find. So after the conference I felt a lot more confident, with my passion project. Now I know exactly what I'm going to achieve in the next few months. Since next week is the presentation about our passion projects. I'm getting my poster board prepared and I'm getting myself prepared on what I'm going to say and explain why I'm passionate about this project. My plans for the on coming weeks is to try to finalize the bake sale and the drive.
