*Up to date*

I have been looking at my questions and gathering information to try to answer my over all question. By doing this the past two days I have been taking notes about both slow and fast pitch softball. Also I have been talking to fellow players of mine and discussing my project with them and talking with my coach about things. My coach is helping me explain why one is better for someone and then how another person might think the other is better and we were discussing the differences between the two of them.

Creating collage

I looked up pictures on Friday about my topic. Then I put them in a photo shop page and started putting the pieces together to make a collage. I looked up different pictures for both types of softball fast and slow pitch. I found pictures that related to just fast pitch and then some that relate to just slow pitch. Then there were some pictures that relate to both types of softball. Today I finished putting my collage up and then put it on my blog.

Idea

I came up with an idea of what I could do for an interview. What I have in mind is to interview my coach and one person from my slow pitch team and one person from my fast pitch team. At this point in time I am coming up with more information about softball that I didn't know about.

Concern

I do have a concern about my topic right now at this point dealing with the interviews we have to do. I don't know what to do about the interview because I don't know who to interview.

About topic

I have been doing lots of research on the two different types of softball. I found a lot of information about the different types of softball fast and slow pitch. With in doing my research it helped me come up with my main question. I also doing some other questions for the project to see if this project will be successful or not. So far as going through my research I found it is successful so far.
