Okay, so today i am continuing my notes taking and editing some of the mistakes that i have made through the previous check in through my notes. I guess i will be working on rewording phrases and coming up with more quotes for each of the articles.

Here is a image of what i am uploading for you to see my collage. I have worked on this for sometime but i felt this would hopefully inspire many to see what the point to this picture might be trying to display. It connects to the problems inner cities faces such as decay in the communities with businesses, schools, and homes. It has lead me to struggle to survive in this kind of condition.

Today has been a long day but i am putting together my notes for grad because they are due very soon. I will soon be able to use some of the information that i have for my electronic class. I would like to use my grad project work into my electronic webpage so others can view it live and see what kind of work i am doing besides in class.

Hey, what can i say? It is a very busy day and i have work to do. But, other than that i have been struggling to keep up the pace with the grad project. I am very well off with starting my proposal. I have started writing out my essential paragraphs. What i was required to do was to plan out how i will go about presenting my idea to the platform and what tools i will use in order to make my grad project successful. I have thought over and over that i will probably use the video and a brochure. Along with keeping a chart in Excel of the daily things that i will do to accomplish my objective.

Okay, today is another day which means that i will be working on my project. I have to upload some questions to the City High dashboard for Ms. King so she can overlook my questions and perhaps give me some additional information concerning my topic. Other than that, today is another search hunt online using google and hope it goes well.

Well, its June and i am very excited. I had a very rough week last week. I had to change or better yet get my questions rearranged and to figure out more clearly where i was going with my topic. Now i am focusing more on the impact of what suburban has on the inner city communities but still dealing with the causes of of the inner city and what many face in living in the city. So, i am very glad i have a very complete thought going and now i am looking forward t start finishing up my search engine for the 10 questions and getting on the road with writing. Soon i will have to also make plans to figure out how i will go about taking some action perhaps involving community service that hopefully will benefit not only me but the community itself.
Thanks alot for Mrs. King and Mr. Jackson who were a great resource tool for me who was able to remove the clouds of bricks and get me to face what i wanted to face which is changing my community but perhaps many others that are in the state of falling.

Hey, i am working on my project which is the research part using my search engine tool to find answers to my questions that i have about communities breakdown. So, i will be spending this afternoon through Thursday reading articles that will hopefully answer all of my questions i have layed out. I have recently been making plans into how i will record my experiences in low proverty to upper proverty communities and the effects it has had on many children including teens.
I went away to New York last week and i visited China town. While there, i have been keeping up with my ideas about settings and places i would like to incorporated into my project. It has been a really nice time there and it has created pictures and awesome ideas into my head. It was very relaxing to get away to clear my mind but i am back and on the road to fulfill my journey.

Well, it seem like it has been years since i have wrote to tell you about my project.
But, don't worry i have found some great research that i have been reading over this past week that i believe will be very useful for my topic. I have already started narrowing down my search with the help of having the question layed out. I am having a bit of a challenge in getting some of the answers to some of my questions. But, i believe my endurance and enthusiasm to search will open the doors to making my graduate project more meaningful and interesting.
Well, today will begin with another long day of reading and catching up on getting my answers on paper for my questions. But the biggest goal toady will be seeing how i can use my skills through search engine to find the right tools to nail it on the head.

Hi, today i have worked pretty hard on touching up on my graduation project to lay a solid foundation on what i perhaps need to grasp to share out to the audience. I have spent my time today researching key terms to help make my research more an advance.

Today when sitting downing i have thought very deeply about writing my research paper based on lower communities that has had great impact on the people. I would like to see it happen but, because my topic is going to be on comparing other communities that are higher classes to see some of the differences it's going to be very difficult. It will take some time to actually pin point where i am going with this and my overall topic. I know i would like to understand why there are gaps between each community but i would like to be educated on how changes can be done along with research of how some communities have grown out of that poor poverty, abandon homes, and low businesses. Because after all in every community there should lye a place for children, moms, dads, grandparents, animals, and nature. Without this i think that each of race will always lack the appreciation of life and sharing a connection through life.

Hi, my name is Jay Carter an I am a senior here at City Charter High School.
My graduation project will be focusing on community issues involving my local neigborhood in Hazelwood, PA. It is one of the most top community with high crime rates along with drug use. I believe by my interest in striving to change my community will catch the eyes of many who have been try but failed and is still waiting for change. Perhaps, some i have spoken to over the previous 10 years living in Hazelwood they all agree that they would like to see businesses development that is design to make things more convience such as, a food market, banks, clothing stores, safe playground for kids to do fun but safe activities, campsite, parks, gas station, and more homes. These are just the basic things people would like to see change in Hazelwood. I have the feeling of setting the ground or foundation of their dreams even though i know it will take great hard dedicated work for it to successed.
Part of my graduation i would like to start taking action and spreading the word for others too to take action. There has been numerous problems of holding good changes from happening do to crimes, gangs, and unsafe drugs in this community. It has made things impossible to change things when there are still those who don't get help or overall refuses it. They have made my community an unsafe place to live. I believe change needs to happen before the next young generations falls into this theory of "real life is in the street without it you are nothing but a school fool".
Some of my personal concern about the gradution project i haven't really thought about until now, but it's the time in process it will take to get local interviewers and live meetings to allow others to speak out on the current issues in communities like Hazelwood. Another, might be keeping up . "In order for things to change for the better we need to take action to change it, because what is now a custom to people lives will become every generation custom future."
