Today I worked on college essays and got them reviewed by peers. The Nov. 1 deadline is close and I have yet to hear back from the Trinity Trust, so thesis work is temporarily stalled.

Today I went over essays and short answer responses for my over abundant college applications. Thank goodness for my fantastic personality.

Today I contacted the Trinity Trust Project to set up a visit. This was recommended to me by my mentor and other advisors at City Hall. I hope to see models and other basic information about the bridge, as well as viewing two documentaries on the construction on the bridge they have at their office.

Today I worked mostly on SAT prep for my subject tests tomorrow. Wish me luck. I have been reading a document on the bridge sent to me by my mentor.

Today I began to read a document on the Hunt Hill Bridge given to me by mentor.

I believe that my presentation went moderately well, as far as getting the information across goes. I was incredibly nervous, so my delivery was rushed, and I looked at my note cards far to often. My transitions could have been smoother, but I didn't forget any large chunks of information. For next time, I will work on staying calm and knowing my presentation better, so it feels more natural.
