Ah, a breath of fresh air. It feels like the Earth was lifted off my shoulders. From now on I can Make in the morning and say to myself, "I can go to school this morning and I don't have to do NHD." No more worries, no more troubles. Just regular everyday classwork.
I guess I'm not being fair. The first paragraph makes NHD seem like the epitome of all that is evil. I didn't love NHD this year, (obviously) however, there were some enjoyable themes.
When I first performed, I felt really happy. It made me feel enthusiastic because I was able to in front of people. I liked performing because it felt like I was John Lennon, or a hippie. It's like an endless spectrum of creativity. I learned that performance is probably my favorite medium of projects in NHD. This year NHD was really fun.
I suppose the only problem I had with NHD was my procrastination. I didn't really work on NHD until about three or four weeks before NHD was due. I mean, everyting came together in the end, but it's always easier on myself to just finish earlier, and do my work. I can't say I really learned that, but what happened to me really reinforced it.
Last thing I really need to improve on is my organization. Usually I'm organized, but this year, I can't explain it, I just wasn't organized. I know I can do better, and I will, I guess I just need more focus.
However, out of all this, I'm glad I did it. Doing John Lennon for NHD made me really interested in music and the 60's counterculture. It was really cool to see hippies, and listen to music. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Carlos Santana, Frank Zappa; I've become fascinated with music. It also helped me with my music playing. I've been playing songs from he 60's on my bass, I lisen to 60's music. It's just so cool to know about the 60's and all the amazing things that happened at that time.
