This page features the daily journals I have kept throughout this project. Each one, here, is the typed version of what I originally wrote that day. I have also included some keywords at the bottom of each entry, so you can easily see what they mention as well as what I often talked about in my journals. You can see these keywords by clicking on the journal entry.

Today was a fun day! Riley and I got a bunch of homework done then downloaded a new video game. We spent some time playing it and learning to play it together. Then we got takeout which turned out to be gross, but we didn't let that ruin anything. We watched a couple of movies together also. It was a great day!

Today we hung out, made lots of food, and (sort of) watched the Super Bowl. My mom came over which was nice. We made way more food than the three of us could eat. We made little smokies, meatballs, mini tacos, potato wedges, sliders, and had veggies, chips, and dips. It was what felt like a short day, but it was a good one.

I'm on the bus, and there are two older women across from me. I have seen them before but only on the bus. One is taller with short, dark grey hair. One is shorter with shoulder length blonde hair. The shorter one is wearing a Christmas sweater. The taller one always takes off her mask when she gets on the bus. The shorter one has a bag with a drug rug like pattern; it has different shades of blue, red, yellow, and orange all woven together. They seem to be good friends. They always get on the bus together. They laugh and gossip about their days for the duration of the ride.

Today was a very stressful day, but tonight was fun. Riley and I grilled steaks and spent time together watching our show and movies. I do think this project is helping to strengthen Riley and I's relationship because we are spending more time together. I am very stressed about tomorrow. I'm getting peer feedback on my short film, and I have to edit my video. I just don't feel confident about any of it. I feel physically ill just thinking about it.
