A majority of the student body are big procrastinators including ourselves and it make for a stressful night the day before the work is due so this resource would be available to students for them to use when they have work that id due so they can try and get it done efficiently and on time. 2) There are really only a few steps involved in putting our project together. First, we need to gather information on ways to help limit procrastination. Next, we need to talk to some students and teachers to get their view on the situation and why they they think they do it so that our project makes sense and students can actually relate to it.

1.  Our first passion project step was to look up various anti-procrastinating techniques online to start to try and understand various strategies.  These will be helpful for further investigtigation into the subject. 2. It went pretty well.  We found a descent amount of ideas on procrastinating and motivators to help you get your work done on time.  These ideals were all pretty simple and easy to do yourself.  3.  Next, we are planning on reaching out to some teachers on their opinion about the subject.  We want to find out their opinion on it, why the think people do it, and ways they think it could be minimized or stopped.  This will give us another view on the subject to further understand the subject.

First Passion Project Update

Brainstorm for Passion Project  I have a little bit of overlap in my posts.  I wrote a lot about traveling, track, and my future which I  hope is in the medical field. My future is something that is really intriguing to me.  My ideal future is to do something in the medical field in New York City living in a high rise apartment. I love to travel and would love to visits every state in the United States of America, and most of the major cities in the world. City life is very appealing to me.  I like how nothing is spread out and is usually within a few blocks of you. I could incorporate my future, training for a half marathon, and living in a city all together becaus e you could live in a city while training for a half marathon.  My half marathon goal is not very important to me right now in my life but it is something I would like to achieve by the time I die.  For my passion project i could possibly research life in the city and what it is like.
