"UPDATE 26" - NOVEMBER 29, 2017

Today was a college day and I began looking at more regular decision schools for backup in the event I do not receive a College Match scholarship from Questbridge. I have selected TCU, SMU, and Baylor as backups in case. I started their applications and finished UT's. I have yet to send my transcript, but they said I have until December 7th, so I still have time. I finished my essay for SMU, as well.

"UPDATE 24" - NOVEMBER 16, 2017

Today I went to the conference room to work on a track with Isaiah that we collaborated on.We finalized the instrumental, finished writing, and recorded many variations of what will end up on the final product. We tinkered around with the levels and the overall feel for the track and it will hopefully be released tomorrow.

"UPDATE 23" - NOVEMBER 14, 2017

Today I filled out my Raise.Me profile, which took a while since I had to include my entire resume, transcript, and test scores. In addition, I needed to add any extracurriculars in order to maximize my potential for financial reimbursement. The deadline for SMU is November 15th. I have finished my ApplyTexas for the most part. I am completely done with CommonApp.

"UPDATE 22" - NOVEMBER 10, 2017

Today was a college day. I nearly finished my UT application and need to finish my supplemental questions. I also discussed an essay topic for SMU with Noah and had a good conversation. These are the only other two colleges I have yet to submit. For Questbridge, I submitted twelve applications and will receive my response on December 1st. Here's hoping for the best!(I also researched how to apply for a fee waiver for the UT application since it needs to be submitted the same day that I receive my Questbridge results)

"UPDATE 21" - NOVEMBER 08, 2017

Today I finalized finding my sources primarily focusing on publications regarding music theory and I learned how to play a G-flat minor chord on the piano for a future composition. I am nearly done with my annotations as I explored why I chose this as a topic as well as how the source could help me. I worked on a song on the music software Logic Pro X on my laptop and finalized the main arpeggio that would resonate throughout.

"UPDATE 20" - NOVEMBER 06, 2017

Today, I took my picture for picture day. It took a while. Once I came back, I was sent to Mr. Mackey's office to update him on my happenings at home. I then returned to find more sources and potential new mentors for my revised thesis. My original mentors were not as available as I had hoped. And today, I gathered all of my sources and continued on my annotations.
