finished Passion Project

Prayers for pink. That's what we started out as. Natalie, Celeste, and I came up with the name but were unsure of where to go next. Eventually, we came up with the pins, pillows, and the twitter account. Breast cancer awareness ways heavy on me and I know it's something that needs to happen. We decided to help raise awareness to make pins and create the account. After we made the pins, we wore them at a football game, passed them out at pink out, and gave them to our friends.  After the pins we decided we wanted to make a twitter account. Our main goal behind the account was to give people statistics, quizzes, and to raise awareness.  These were the main projects we were able to complete.

To me I think at least I was half in half out of this project. I think we were able to get a lot done but I think the follow through is what we lacked. I am very confident in our progress with the pins and pillows but know we completely missed out on the other half of our project. I think we didn't raise awareness as much as we wanted too. We wanted to make our school more aware of this sickness and I don't think that happened.

Throughout this process we made mistakes, our biggest mistakes being time and procrastination. Natalie, Celeste, and I would plan to meet to accomplish a goal and wouldn't. I think if we had set an hour aside every weekend we could have achieved more of our goals. Procrastination. That word is used to describe pretty much every teenager. That word definitely describes the three of us. We talked a lot about what our plans were in moving foward but would always push it back. We kept coming up with excuses to not execute a task that needed to get done.
