Today I was early for class because it was break and Maha was absent. I wanted to finish my bibliography. Luckily the other class did not show up in the library today, meaning there were more books to look at. I wrote all the bibliography for the books I used throughout the whole research. I worked well in class, probably because the environment was quieter without the other class. However, I did have difficulties in some of the books where I went to ask Mr. Sparks about it and then we asked the librarian then another teacher joined to figure it out. At the end they came with a conclusion that seemed right to me. There were some other books with this problem that I was able to figure out, according to the teachers solutions.

Day 12
March 30th
I was early to class because I had P.E. the lesson before. That gave me an advantage of choosing the books before anyone else. The books were perfect for answering the rest of my guiding questions for Religion and Art and Architecture. By the end of the class time I was able to have all questions answered in full sentences. I think I am done, I have about 19 back to front post cards or more. If I by any chance find more information I will add it to my notes. What I did in class is basically the same thing as yesterday (March 29th). I worked well again because I was relaxed with no worries.
Day 11
March 29th
In class I looked at my guiding questions and tried to answer them. I basically found all the answer from my pervious knowledge from books. There was only about three questions that I needed to research for. I am glad that I finished the guiding questions for all Art and Architecture and half Religion. I intended on finishing the rest of the questions tomorrow in class. I think I worked well on my work , because I felt relaxed with no worries during class. The only thing that was missing in class was Maha, it just didn't feel the same.

Day 10
March 26th
In class I intended to add the finishing notes to each characteristic, but there were more books about Egypt. So I checked them out. They were very useful. Most of the new books I read had great information about religion. I think I worked well in class I looked over each book carefully and summarized it in my own words. I am just scared that I miss out a couple of important points. At the end I will go over the books to see if I left any important points. Hopefully I didn't, because then I wasn't working hard enough on all the research days. I am now running out of stuff to write because it is the same thing everyday.

Day 9
March 24th
Today in class I did horrible. I didn't work that well, at all. My mind was full of worries, because the next lesson I had a math test, then a science test, and then I had a music assessment. All these were after each other. My brain did want to work, so basically the whole class I sat and thought about the tests and assessment (which was useless, and a waste of time). Now I regret what I did, it wasn't beneficial at all. I got one post card done at least (better than nothing). I think many other people have the same case as me.
Day 8
March 23rd
In class I mainly worked on social class again. I think I did better this time than the others time. I am not sure why, but maybe because I didn't use my brain much in the previous class (P.E). I looked in about two more new books which I found very useful. I used both books for each of my characteristics. I must admit I did chit chat then and now, but at least I worked. During class some of the classmates kept on asking me in how many days we should have on our blogger. There was a discussion about it, and at the end we came up with eight days including today. Mr. Sparks kept us five minutes after class to talk about the amount of cards and the bloggers. Thankfully I had everything he mentioned, so I was on the right track so far. Other than I was one day late in my blogger process journal.

Day 7
March 22nd
Today in the library I looked for more books about social class because I did not have enough information. I carefully studied about six books and only two of them helped me in social class. I added two more post cards for social class. However, the other books did help me in my other two characteristics. In total I have added three of four post cards by the end of the day. I think I worked very well in class today. I have put lots of effort in my work. I stayed in at break to look at more books. I found some other books about Egypt that I have never seen before (probably other people took it before me). I took a quick look at the books by looking at their table of contents.
