Spring Break

Post #8


          So we are about to go on spring break, which is super lit and exciting. And we wanted to do some taste testing with the group on our week off, but unfortunately for our group but fortunately for me I'll be in California until the 25th. Sooooo, I think the group is going to go without me to go taste testing.
         In turn we agreed that I could do some taste testing in Cali. So maybe our range of pretzels has expanded a bit, a lot-a-bit actually. Regardless we are going to get the job done! I wonder if Cali pretzels taste better than Tucson pretzels ... I'll soo find out.

Yuumm

           Update on the project..I still don't know what's going on. But we do have a pretzel cook book. The cook book is pretty cool, all about pretzels. Different shapes, sizes, and flavors. I never thought pretzels could get so creative. I cant really quote the cook book but I'm sure you can use your imagination.
           This cook book will be a huge help when it comes to when we try to make our own pretzels. It gives us a general idea of what to do and how to do it. I think that's what I'm most excited about, making our own pretzels. How COOL is that! Plus who doesn't love food and eating it?

Plans didn't go smoothly

Post #6

           So the group and I made plans to go pretzel tasting at the Park Place Mall on Wilmot, the mall has two pretzel shops, it was a two-for-one deal. We planned on going Saturday, February 27th. But plans fell though due to that Jaysen had to baby sit and I was helping to deliver a baby
           I thought the delivering baby thing was a little more important due to the fact that it was someone I was really close with and her daughter was out of town. I actually saw a live birth. I held her leg even. It was amazing but worth having a little set back in our project. I guess we'll be rescheduling some other time.

Falling Behind

Post #5
       
           I'm definitely falling behind on this project, I mean just the blog posts and what not. Ive been absent to at least three lab days and that's where I do most of my work. Since I don't really do much of my blog outside of the lab days we get.
           I obviously haven't given any mind to catching up until now. Well that's usually how things transpire with me. I'm a procrastinator and I work way better under pressure. Its actually where I do some of my best work. Yup this is me at the moment procrastinating, trying to catch up on all the days I've missed.
         

One thing I enjoy

Post #4

           One thing I do enjoy about this project are my partners, Jaysen, Zion, and David. they are good partners. They came up with the main idea for the pretzels, which I just so happen to love so they excepted me into their group. But I think they feel similar to how I feel about the project.
           With that that's probably why we've all been slacking, I mean when we do our lab days we try to catch up. That's where we do most of our work actually. But David is definitely on top of his stuff. I've found that my partners are what make this project do-able, so I thank them for that.

Trouble

Post #3
          
           Well due to my lack of enthusiasm for this project I haven't really put much thought or effort in to my project. I'm kind of lost with the whole thing honestly. I try to understand but with the huge packet of directions and vague directions on the teachers blog, I try to make the best of it. But in the end I'm still confused.
            I do though think my lack of understanding is due to my lack of being interested to understand. So I can only blame myself. I just don't want to deal with project, already having so much on my plate. I just need to suck it up and do it.

What I Think

Post #2

           This project is different. Not something I thought we'd be doing. I guess it could be considered as our senior project. I don't really see the point in the whole thing, its just another tedious assignment that we have to worry about on top of all of our other class assignments including this English class. We have to do it so I guess I don't have much of a choice
           Not something I'm very excited about. I guess it I just don't think its relevant. I really what to be learning how to write, because next year when I'm in college I doubt ill be writing a blog. Maybe this was supposed to be something fun or exciting for us to do but I just don't find it to be either of these. Welp, these are just all my opinions about the project and how I feel about it.
