~The Begining Again~

At the end of last year I have finished my outline and everything I needed to. I am now at the beginning of my 12Th grade trimester of grad project. I am working on my paper right now. I will be interviewing my coach next week around maybe Tuesday or Wednesday. Hopefully on Tuesday during class I can go hand out my survey to the 11Th grade class so I can get my results back from that.
