Memoirs

■ What were the best and worst parts of the Senior Project/Senior Seminar?

The worst part of this senior project was to choose something to do. Learning guitar was my first option but I was
looking for more options. But one day when I was trying to find something to do for this, I was listening to music
and ‘Stairway to Heaven’ played. I listened to the guitar on this track and that's what made me choose this project.

The best part for me was going into the music world, it is so interesting to me how you can create music to express
yourself.

■ List three things you now know after completing your Senior Project.

I learned hand coordination, I feel more comfortable with my hands. I had to practice almost everyday to earn the
skill and make it perfect.

■ Which aspect of the Senior Project/Senior Seminar stretched you the most? How did you feel about and react to
this challenge?

Playing the guitar correctly, I had no idea about how to play it, at first I thought it was gonna be impossible to
know everything. It’s not easy because you really have to focus and be good with your hands which was hard for
me because I don't really use my hands all the time.

■ How has the Senior Project/Senior Seminar changed you (skills, attitudes, work habits, capabilities, confidence,
poise, presentation, etc.)?

It for sure helped me a lot. I had to make a schedule to manage my time, be consistent by doing every time I was
scheduled to. It also helped me on expressing my ideas and explain everything i needed to do to accomplish this
project

■ Has this experience influenced your future plans?

Yes, it helped my research skills to find what I need.

■ What would you do differently if you had to do the whole Senior Project/Senior Seminar process again?

Another project, to try new things

■ What advice do you have for next year’s seniors?

To be prepared for life. To have an idea of what you're going to do after high school as soon as possible so it’s not
new stuff for you and you’ll know what you're doing.

■ What grade would you give yourself for your Senior Project and what justification do you have for that grade?

10/10, I really liked it and i try to perform as good as I could
