SO Much to do

I updated my resume and sent it to Dr. Jensen because she is writing me a recommendation letter. I checked once again the guidelines and requirements for the final Thesis submission. More work was done on my paper; I have to add evidence. Its not as hard, though, because im basically writing about my life.

Dr. Umar Johnson

Today, I listened to a few podcasts from a man named Dr. Umar Johnson. He spoke about God, religion, and their role in the black community. He made a connection between the black community now and how religion alters our being. I also looked up a scholarship. for women in engineering.

Frustration

I tried to contact another judge today. The judge I currently have has not been responding to my emails. More work was completed on my paper. I have a lot of work to do before next Friday, though.

My Thesis wasn't on the schedule?!?!? I talked to you about that. Hopefully, I can get my time slot and date. Other than that mini panic attack, I talked to my judge about other judges. I worked more on my paper. I found new sources. I believe I am going in the desired direction for the paper, and progress is being made.

Thursday, April 10th

I worked more on my research paper.

Kick in the Pants

I overviewed the components necessary for the final submission of the thesis project. More content on my paprer has been added. I have a lot of sources, I am finding. My judge has agreed to judge my project but has not responded to my latest email. More work is being put into my project as we speak. I have a lot to do. It is seriously crunch time. I hope I can keep up.

Help =Found :)


I found some help. Some helpful links. I started looking at the souls of black folk by W.E.B. DuBois and a syllabus for an African AMerican studies course at Columbia University. I wrote more of my research paper as well.

Motivation

Today, I was motivated by the panicky speech you gave us at the beginning of class. It really added some fuel to my fire. I worked on and edited my process paper. I now have about six pages of material. I am starting with my personal experience with the light-skin versus dark-skin conflict. I then want to go into the information I found throughout my research. It is coming together. I am aslo thinking of adding a product in addition to my paper.
