Time Spent: 30 hours
Time total: 62 hours
The event we were planning for awhile was yesterday and for the first half of today. We sold about 30+ shirts at the event for an on-site fundraiser at our station for the Relay for Life fundraiser. The event was 24+ hours. I walked for a majority of the event and we had time shifts, so that our team wouldn't get exhausted by the time it reached early morning.
It was fun and a relief to finally finish the event that I've been helping plan and promote for a few months.

Senior Project #19
Time spent: 2 hours
Time Total: 32 hours
Met with Yon Sim again she said that the logo was still in its first stage and that I should be using Adobe Illustrator instead of photoshop cs5. She said that the shirt design was good, but that we needed to have better eye direction for the design. We drew some sketches out and we came up with three different designs that we should try. Yon also explained that we should be drawing our stuff more and that we shouldn't be digitally vectoring everything that we do because with that there's no connection and our things look digital instead of having a flowing feel to it.

Senior Project blogs
I'm going to be finishing the rest of my blogs by May 22, 2011. That's the day of the event and in between that date from now to the 22nd I will be meeting up with Yon Sim. She just recently got back from a trip out of the country and I'm currently waiting for her reply email.

Senior Project #18
Time spent: 3 hours
Time total: 30 hours
Today, I “painted the town purple”, which basically means I go out to the community and I advertise Relay for Life.
I went to the local businesses across from South City High School and I asked if they would want to make a team or volunteer the day off, but I got negative responses from them. However, they did let me put up fliers up to help advertise and to get the word out.
Next, I went to a local neighborhood and started going door to door putting fliers at people’s doorsteps. I had not designed the fliers used because of issues with the logo and copyright infringement that does not allow me to use certain words, and images. Therefore, the next best thing was to use premade fliers directly from the American Cancer Society.

Senior Project #17
Time spent: 2 hours
Time total: 27 hours
I went to a Relay for Life meeting and discussed our group’s progress with Allison Harrer, an American Cancer Society event coordinator. She was pleasantly supportive and delighted with our progress that we made so far.
She also signed my mentor and confirmation forms.
During the meeting I agreed to be a foot soldier and walk around the South San Francisco neighborhood and ask for volunteers and to advertise with fliers.

Senior Project #16
Allison called me and said that Relay may be postponed because we’re way behind our quotas and goals. She informed me that it may get postponed until somewhere in July, which in my opinion would be beneficial for our project overall.
This has made me realize that I need to really step up what I've been doing and that I need to upgrade the website and finish the Home page design
The site so far is:
