Today is Sunday and every Sundays I spend time with my family to enjoy life before I start the next week of school. I just read over my notes today and made some notes of what to research tomorrow and a few reminders of what could be some good topics, though I did not spend much time on the project.

I made some time today to work on the Liberty project, so I spent some time looking at online pages. First of all, I wanted to get the picture of what the Enlightenment had to do with the French Revolution, so I spent most of my time looking that up and puting some information together. I also ran into an interesting fact that I did not know about the French revolution, which was about the execution of King Louis XIV, the French had really had enough by then! Next I am going to research the American Revolution and what it had to do with the age of Enlightenment.
Total time spent: 1 hour I mainly did work on Diigo today, I did not have much time to work on the project so I saved a few pages on it. Also, I couldn't figure how to use the app on my phone while looking at online pages, so I got to fiddle more with Diigo. Wow, this 21st century technology is amazing!!!
Total time spent: 30 minutes Today I set up both Diigo and Weebly by downloading them on my phone. I started to play around a little with Diigo and start to get adjusted to how it works and what I can do with it, but it really does seem really useful! Took me a little while, considering how horrible I can be with technology sometimes, I could not figure out how to manage some tools that I wanted to use, then I figured how to make an actual blog and not just make my own standard page into a blog, but I finally did it! Afterwards, I went out to a few websites and tried Diigo on them. since it is late at night and don't have time to read the websites, I saved those pages to read later. At least today was more progress than yesterday!!!!!!
Total time spent: 1 hour, 3 minutes There was a Cross Country meet today, got to run in the hot sun (yay). Had to get homework over with and study for a big chemistry test extended through Thusrday and Friday, plus a quiz from another class. I tried to get some work with the project done, but time ran out. I did have a few thoughts on what type of things I should try to research to start with, but they were only quick thoughts.
Total time spent: 0 minutes I could not get anything done today. There was too much homework I needed to do after I came back from Cross Country (practice is every day). I also have a few tests and quizzes this week, so I needed time to study for those too.
Total time spent: 0 minutes Today, being the first day, I analyzed the prompts for the essay and finally chose to write about the American or French Revolution effects on other parts of the world and how their ideas were significant to other countries. This took me a little of time to decide, so I had to look a bit at a few sources for each prompt and get an idea of where I could take this. I think I made the right choice, hopefully I won't decide to change it.
