Presenting my project went way better than I expected. I was prepared to hear people make rude and unsupportive but I was surprised with the exact opposite. All I was hearing was how great of an idea they thought it was and why they hadn't thought of it first. I wish I had put some of my brainstorming ideas to show to the class but I don't feel like they were ready.
By far my favorite thing that happened that day was talking to my principal, Mr. Johnson. He talked to me about how he fell in love with writing in a poetry slam. That might sound silly to some but after going through the poetry slam he even changed his major. I could easily tell Mr. Johnson and I share a strong passion for the same thing. To help me with my passion he let me know that in a different class there was someone interested in starting a magazine for our school and he knows they would need some writers. It's unbelievable to me how I've only just begun on this project and I'm already making great progress.
