This is the second time that I am saying this: ISM Showcase is this week! 'This Week For Sure,' ISM Showcase is happening this Wednesday. While I was disappointed that it was cancelled last week due to weather changes, I am almost glad. Last week I had orchestra UIL that Wednesday, so I woke up at 5:15 am, and although I was prepared to stay out until 8:45 pm, I was still dreading it. This week is much better, but I do have the SAT on Wednesday. Nonetheless, it is an exciting event that is worth the sacrifice. I am so excited to see what everyone else has accomplished, and I am excited to be able to put present my original work and move on to my final product. I also saw that this week, we will be having an almost progress check for our final product. To be completely honest, my work for my final product has been minimal as I have not had a mentor visit in a short while. I do plan to have one on Thursday, but I will have to confirm with Dr. Joe. I think that Thursday would be a good time to briefly discuss my final product some more as I did research in the past few weeks that allowed me to form questions to ask Dr. Joe.
ISM 'Showcase Is Here'! I am so excited to be able to show off what I did in my first semester of ISM to the people I invited. I do have a few more invitations that I can give out, but I've invited all the people that I initially wanted to, so at this point, I will be giving my invitations to my classmates tomorrow. Although I am excited about showing off what I accomplished in my first semester, I am more excited to see what my peers have accomplished. Just in my class period, Alexis was able to make an entire court case, and Emily made an entire business plan. The others accomplished just as much. I am also nervous to see how my mentor will view my original work. I think looking back on my original work, I could have picked something that was more helpful to the community, but at the end of the day, I am still happy with what I accomplished and can only look forward to doing an even bigger project for my final product. Other than showcase this week, I am also looking forward to my second mentor visit on Friday. If things go according to plan, then I will have the time to go to Dr. Joe's practice once again. This week is big!
This week, 'Showcase Is Soon.' I am getting ready to finish up my trifold, and I am surprisingly pleased with how it looks. I do believe that it could have been more proportional to my display board plan, though. I enjoy the process of assembling my trifold and am excited that the date is slowly approaching closer and closer. While I am nervous about the event, it is extremely exciting and I look forward to being able to show my peers and family members what I worked on in my first semester of ISM. Last week, I had my first mentor visit, so I'm unsure if I will end up having another mentor visit this coming Thursday. I might, but I'm also unsure. Dr. Joe told me that I can come any time that I am available, but I'm not sure if I am available because I believe that is a mandatory attendance class period of ISM. This week, I also have to get my digital portfolio finalized for showcase, which is something that I also look forward to doing. Something I realized in ISM is that I enjoy the feeling of being productive and learning about something that I am truly passionate about.
I was disappointed last week that the snow and ice disabled me from being able to attend my first mentor visit. But, I can confidently say that 'This Week Is Really My First Mentor Visit' and there are no doubts about it. I am excited to be able to discuss with my mentor about my final product and how I can begin working on it. Other than that, ISM is going to be very busy in these upcoming weeks. We have to have our display board completed by Friday, so I need to get started on that. I already have the plan, but I just need to print everything out and ensure that the board is exactly how I want it to look. I believe that the only difficulties that I will have is making sure the proportions are correct and cutting out the letters to make sure that it looks good. I am more so nervous for the actual presenting part of the showcase, in which I will have to speak in front of the people who I invited. Although I am confident in my original work, I have my doubts in how much effort it looks like I put into it and how my mentor will view it. Nonetheless, I am extremely excited to have finally reached the point in ISM where I am presenting the work that I have completed.
