This week, I spent quite a lot of time planning. I attended seminars, I met with the two of you several times, and I started filling my trello calendar until the end of march. I'm starting to feel much better about my project, and my goals are far more reasonable and clear. All of this is good, and I feel like this was a great week for learning, but I would like to start taking action. I've started designing the website and I've drafted a survey to show that a market exists for my service, however, I need to recruit volunteers. I faced somewhat of a setback this week, as my plan to send a mass email through the guidance office failed. However, I should be able to maneuver around this by just being personable and getting volunteers by myself and possibly through the advisory announcements. Our group did the same thing with calendars, so I'm not overly anxious about it. As I've stated before, I would be satisfied with getting 50 volunteers, which would be enough for a test run to see if the program functions continuously. I feel I can do better than that though. I don't want to set unreasonable expectations, but if things workout I could maybe get 75-100 volunteers.
I was finally able to get in contact with Mr. Schiff this week, and he is willing to be my advisor. I don't think I will be needing much from him, but I'm happy that he is there for me if I need him. Throughout my four years of high school, he's been a great guidance councilor and a really nice guy. It's a huge relief to have such a good advisor for my senior project.
