I think that really making it about something you're already passionate about is super important. It's only as much extra work as you make it really. My paper is fairly concise but it's the accumulation of work I've been doing for a long time. Don't write it off immediately and finish it in the end, (1) ·
Stick to what you enjoy, otherwise you'll never get it done. (1) ·
We’re told as seniors to get our “money up” but we’re not told don’t forget you have to feel and look good while doing it. (1)

Capdescription:
I chose my senior capstone to be about photography and my progression within that. I’ve picked up technical shooting skills and am building a portfolio. To help further my enrichment in my Capstone, I took two photography classes this year. I worked hands-on with Ms. Butcher, brushing up on my com (1) ·
I wrote a few chapters of my fictional novel, as well as wrote out some notes for myself to help me imagine the world as I write it. (1) ·
My capstone is a summary (more or less) of the work I've been doing on myself over the past 3ish years and what I have learned over that time. At first it was more physical, but it turns out that way more work had to be done mentally. It was originally longer but I trimmed out parts that weren't nee (1)

A poster-board paired with a paper I'd write on learning how to learn. (1) ·
I started with the intention to write the whole book, which would look somewhere around 20 or so chapters. I knew it wouldn't have happened in the end, but I wanted to set the end goal for myself. (1) ·
I was going to be volunteering at a local children’s museum. My capstone about this was to discuss the importance and livelihood of service to the community. (1)
Capchange:
Due to lack of enrichment and work, I decided to change my capstone to photography. Luckily enough, I had already been attending a photo class. Ms. Butcher took me under her wing right away to help brainstorm and envision how to build a portfolio and give an artist statement. (1) ·
I had to ditch the poster-board aspect due to the circumstances, and my goals for me have evolved majorly since it was assigned as well. That lesson of learning how to learn is still very important, but now it's more focused on discipline and being emotionally healthy. (1) ·
I instead ended up writing 3 chapters and editing them, and, while I'm not the most proud of how they turned out, I'm glad I was able to finally put out some drafts for later writing. (1)
Capreflection:
I learned a lot about me, and the "demons" I have. I feel not near as powerless as I did to them even just a little while ago. I'm learning to heal the mental things that need to be healed and grow in a healthy way, and not feel like a core part of me is a mistake and has to be hidden away. (1) ·
I've grown immensely as a writer, both objectively and subjectively. I learned how to write and compose scenes of a narrative more clearly, and to make less mistakes and convey my image in better ways. The most important thing I gained from this project however, was better confidence in my own writi (1) ·
Our generation sadly cares more about passing than learning, though I don’t know who’s fault it is. (1)
