Week 5: July 2nd - July 8th

• 3 Accomplishments for the Week

1. "Finished" (never know if more will be added) my excel spreadsheet containing all of my letter data.

2. Made a pretty decent 3D model for our lecture.

3. Made a pretty bad, but decent enough for a beginner animation for our lecture.

• 3 Obstacles that Prevented Me from doing my Best Work

1. A lack of knowledge about both 3D modelling and animation.

2. Some trouble understanding concepts about static maps (it is simple, just a lot of info all at once was a bit overwhelming).

3. For public speaking, my weakness of speaking fast and slurring my words because of speaking fast caused me to give a less than stellar presentation in my eyes.

• 3 Things I Learned This Week

1. Some more tips on how to give a presentation better (SLOW IT DOWN BRO).

2. How to animate (albeit crudely) and how to 3D model.

3. More food for thought than anything else but secession goes back farther than just the Civil War era and deciding at which point to start tracing the idea of it was hard.

Side Note: I apologize for the late upload of this post. It completely slipped my mind on Friday.
