5-30-2017: Power Writing

Today was my most productive day yet. I finished a rough draft on my Under One Roof narrative, and I made significant progress with my piece on Upper School athletics, in addition to spending time editing my story on Middle School technology. Otherwise, I really don’t know what else to say about today; it’s just that I sat down, figured out what I need to write, began writing, and didn’t stop. Looking back through what I had completed, I wrote over 1200 words today.

My plans for the rest of the intensive are tight. Tomorrow, I need to finish a draft of a narrative piece on the international student program, in addition to making significant progress on my shorter piece on MV2020. If I have time, I can also begin editing and revising some of my other completed narratives. By Thursday, my goal is to have final drafts of at least five of the seven narratives. Friday will be spent organizing and representing the data I have and presenting them in form of charts, in addition to formatting everything in magazine style. The project itself should be finished by Monday, and Tuesday morning will be spent preparing for the afternoon intensive fair.

Although these plans are ambitious, I don’t think they are impossible.

The only complaint that I had was sitting in front of a screen for so long. Even though I split up the work into two smaller chunks of time, I almost had a headache by the end of the day.

Otherwise, my hope is that tomorrow is an even better day—and with time creeping up on me, I can’t afford it to not be!
