WHAT?

AFTER yesterdays panic attack at how low that grad was i have made it raise higher higher like the amazon river during rainy season

2 HOURS IN DA OVEN & HE DONE

today i finally turned in my essential and foundation questions my grad was looking very low for a second.

GET IT SHAWTY AKA TWERK IT

today i found three books from the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh that will help me with this project. two are non circulating which means i have to read them there and take notes. Eh u know Kendra was searching through the garbage yo. i mean i know times is rough with gas prices and all. but i just take my big wheel to school i dont search through the garbage.

LIBRARY FOR WHAT, I know how to read

Going to the library tommorrow tommorrow I love u tommorrow is only a day away

DAY 2: MONEY & U

today i explained my project to the class. They seemed very interested.

INFO ON OTHERS ISH

I heard a couple of peoples project in class today. Most of them seemed as though not alot of thought was put into them. Like meagans she look like she put to much thought into hers so that was like the best one. Mine, probably is thirty times worse than anyone elses.

MORE QUESTIONS, NO ANSWERZ (RUMBLE YOUNG KID RUMBLE)

Today in class i worked on my essential questions. Found my foundation question, and started to develop a search strategy. Other things happened (some ones ignorance to anothers feelings regarding thier project & people playin around with tissues but you didn't here that from me) that i would comment on but you know they might get offended and el might have to regulate out here. and dont nobody want that ( i dont even want that to happen)

WHAT'S GOOD AND WHAT'S BAD

What did I accomplish today? Well, I managed to do five of my sitations from my webliography for the project today in class. Still got five more to go so better get crackin. I think i used the Carnegie Library and Museum of Art. Then some state departments website that shows the historical markers in Allegheny county. I'm starting to get a little confused about what exactly my project was originally on, even though I just really decided like last week. I might want to change it, because I'm getting lost on how to approach doing it. sigh, problems, problems, problems .................................................................................................................................................................................................

Annotation & "One-Shot"

I finally turned in my sample annotation. So now ill start searching for other sites to use as references. I think i could did better on the sample but i ll do better on the real version. I used the Carnegie site that had an archive of photo's taken by Teenie "one-shot" Harris and others. THis is like the third time i ran into his name. My mentor originally told me about, then i was Mrs. Moye's class (the day i couldn't go on my internship) and she was talking about him to her students in photography class. So either someones tryin to tell me something about him or his work is going to be very useful to me in the future.

Today i started my webliography. I found some info on About.com and google. I also finally put up my poster its supposed to relfect the intentions of my project.

NEW LIGHT

With the help of my teacher, Mrs. Fossum, I have found a basis for my Grad Porject.

Now the goal of my project is too eventually propose that not only more of the African-American History from the Pittsburgh area be added to the school history curriculum. I would like this to happen because you can’t just tell someone a building was important, you have to tell them why. Like for instance, The National Negro Opera House was the First permanent African-American Opera company in the Area if not the entire United States. I would use this opportunity to find ways to gain support for the YPA’s preservation and restoration efforts as a continuation of my internship.

The end product of my project will be a video. The video will contain interviews (with people who where there to see these sites in their glory days), actual footage of the sites (I might also try to get older footage of the sites), elaboration on the sites significance, and an update on the current status of the site.

WEEKLY LOG #1

I still don't know what this project is going to be on. But I think I have a better idea. Since i have a internship with the YPA (Young Preservationist of Pittsburgh) I think I could use that to base my project on.
