Final Submission
The Personal Project is a project that every grade 10 student participating in the MYP program is required to complete. The project, in case you are unaware, starts in March of grade nine and finishes in December of grade 10. This project lasts for around nine to ten months. You are required to come up with a question and figure out a way to answer it. You can assume the depth we have to go into with the amount of time we are given to write it. As well as handing in the finished product or how you answered the question, you hand in process journals which consisted of a summary of what you are doing, what you have done and what you will do. Lastly, you hand in a four thousand word essay whereby you analyze every possible thing about every single decision you made.
It is December 17th 2009. It is the last day before the holidays and I have just finished, and handed in the final copy of my personal project.
If you have not participated in the project yourself, you can only imagine the relief and the utter joy that fills a student once they are finished. Throughout this project I have experienced the height of stress, the height of boredom, the height of frustration and finally the height of being totally, one hundred percent confused. I can also tell you that I have learnt the importance of not procrastinating and that I have not procrastinated since – but this would be a lie. I was to have posted five blogs on this website by the end of term and the term ends today -so being me I posted my last two within the last 48 hours.

Excellent! If I could write like this I would be well happpy. The more I read articles of such quality as this (which is rare), the more I think there might be a future for the Net. Keep it up, as it were.

I totally go along you! I have often felt that way but nobody really would like to take it as seriously as we do apparently. Excellent blog anyway, I am going to have to stop by more frequently.
