Today was a very productive day of work, I got my second draft done on my Donald Danforth Article. World Food day was a pretty cool event to report on and I had the honor of going back for a second time. Its great seeing thousands of people come out to all support one cause together. I wish I could go to Africa to see how it affects the families over there. 

Today was a pretty good day, I got the draft of my article done, I'm just ready to get the edited version back so I can make the changes and be done with my first article this fall. I just turned 18 the other day and I don't feel any older. Just feels like I'm one more step in the forest. You can never go all the way into the forest, you go half way in and then you're on your way out. 

Today was a great day to work! Dave wasn't here and I feel like I got soo much work done. it's weird, normally i get work done and kinda slack when he's here, but today he was gone all day so I literally could've sat here and played games or something. I got so much work done with the video script and I may double up on the work and also do a written article. i realize that based on the questions and footage that Lamar and I collected we have enough for a lot of different stories that are all somehow linked to Donald Danforth Plant Science Center. 

Today and last night actually I went to the Donald Danforth Plant Science Center and watched people from all over the city come and bag food for Africa. Last night was high school night and it seemed to just be this huge party of kids coming together to package food for a good cause on a Friday night. It was nuts! Today everyone else came in, parents, organizations, schools it was a lot of fun. I even had a chance to sit the camera down and package some myself. I met the couple behind it all and they had a very interesting story to how all this came about. I can't wait to publish this article or photo story I'm going to make with Lamar. 

Today was a great day, very productive!

Today was pretty awesome. I have my article done but I haven't had time to submit so I should do that soon. I went out on Science Corner with Teddy to see what they do exactly. I watched my little brother D'angelo and my godsister Jasmine work. The college prep session today went well today also. Hopefully next week will go even better. 

So today we went to the main building for a scavenger hunt! Nebria Ragland was my partner and we won the scavenger hunt by a lot of points! We had to take pics and videos of the most random things and it was so much fun. We should do it again sometime soon.
