May 18 another day another dollar

 Wow! Here we are again, another day of senior project in the books. Today we woke up early and headed to school for some work. We couldn’t hike because of our early game, so we sat outside in the sun for a bit. We worked for a while on some final planning of nights on our trip. Then we met with Annie to go over some tid bit things like gas and international phone coverage. Important things! We are really starting to come together! Tomorrow we will

Sunday work day - may 21

Yesterday I worked for a while on researching ingredients and constructing the backcountry and front country food lists. I woke up and it started raining so I hunkered down and dove into work. I am starting to feel a bit intimidated by the fact that our departure date is in the near future and this is really happening. After the rain cleared away. I got out on the lake and went for a sail, my first sail since ocean and boy was it amazing. Sailing in a 1 mast laser thats 9 feet long is a a lot different than sailing a 131 foot schooner! The next few days we will finalize our trip.   Hours logged: 5 hours  Hours logged in total: 48 hours

Last day: May 24th

 The last day of senior project really did creep up on us. Today we really focused on finishing everything up. We woke up pretty early to get a head start on the day. We worked here in Concord for about 3 hours, finalizing the trips itinerary to polish up our plan so that we are ready to leave on the 6th. After we finished all of the planning we dove into finishing our reflection papers. We then headed to school for some outdoors time, we both went on a run around the ski hill/railtrail. Beautiful day, the grass was so green it seemed saturated. It does not seem real that our last day of SP is done!  Hours logged today: 4 Hours total logged: 56

What I realized was that this week was not at all what I had expected. In terms of our senior project, not much has changed. We got some more work done in the mornings, went on some nice hikes, got active and golfed, walked, and progressed our ideas on the logistics of our trip. What I have just realized is that this week tested my emotional state regarding leaving proctor. I kept getting in mindsets where I felt like I just wanted to escape and that proctor felt so small. I honestly couldn't articulate what these emotions were but I was frustrated and sad. I am now sitting down and reflecting on the week while my three good friends of four years sit next to me and I now recognize what those feelings were. I subconsciously was pushing away a...
