3 weeks until presenting!

Now that I have my interview, action plan, and written component done, I'm working on my PowerPoint and I so far I have 13 slides done and I'll probably get 14-16 slides total for the presentation. Nov.20 is the final day of grad project and I present at 10:00 a.m.

Interview Questions

Here are my interview questions for the walk:

• How long has diabetes been important to your life?
• Can there be a family history with diabetes?
• How long can diabetes be effective to someone?
• What are visible signs that a person is diabetic?
• Has diabetes affected your life in any way?
• In what way an diabetes affect your health?
• What are some treatments for diabetes?

Finding People For The Team

I'm trying to find students to make a team for the walk which is in 12 days on a sunday. I'm also trying to find people to help me donate money for the walk before the 27th. And if I can get $100 I can get shirts for the walk.

The Next Walk for Step Out

The walk for StepOut is on September 27th and I'm trying to find people to donate before the walk and for people to sign up because I'm creating a team to raise money during the walk on the 27th.

My Action Plan

I'm trying to find out about ADA (American Diabetes Association) and how to contact them but I'm having problems with when the next walk for Step Out for Diabetes is because my action plan is to sign up for Step Out and do the walk for diabetes. I'll be back next week to post more!

The Big Project

I've heard a lot about the topic for my graduation project and what I need to include for it. And My Graduation project will be on How Type 2 Diabetes effects people's health because my family has a history on Type 2 Diabetes. I already have websites that has information about the symptoms, and what other types there are. But I need to find a lot more about my topic this week.

First Blog

Ever since I first started City High I've heard a lot about the graduation project and how important it is. And now that I'm in the class I've given a lot of thoughts about what I should do for my project. But now I don't really know a topic that I should do. The topic that I should do should be something that's important to me and to everyone else. But I know I need to come up with something soon before I start.
