20% Time Speech

          In the beginning of the year, I was confused about this project, mainly how it would last the whole year. Now, I was surprised by many things I learned throughout this project. I accomplished my goal of designing phone cases and learning many new things; I also enjoyed the process. My main accomplishments were making 11 phone cases and keeping my blog updated with the process. Through this project, I learned that it is harder for me to work if I am not being graded. Some more things I learned were how to blog, more things about my work ethic, how to decorate cases many different ways, and tons of other smaller things. These all lead up to my overall goal. I also had difficulties along the way. Some of the difficulties included wanted to change my project topic, not using my time wisely, having trouble working hard or on task, or never finding the time to get supplies for my project. Towards the end of the year, I got bored with my idea, and I wanted to try something different. This made me a lot less motivated to work. Another difficulty I encountered was never remembering to get supplies, and this set me back. Doing a project over the whole year had many positives and a few negatives. Besides the negatives, I had a fun time with it. If I continue with this project, I hope to eventually learn how to sell cases online. But, my goal was to learn different ways to design cases, and I did accomplish that. I learned many useful things I did not know before. This project also helped me improve my creativity. I have learned a ton of new things, and hopefully I can do this again sometime in the future!
