NHD Reflection

This year I found NHD much easier. Probably due to the fact that I actually knew what to expect and how to organize my time. This year I think I learned more about my topic than last, because last year my topic was pretty broad. However, that could be related to theme more than the topic.

Even though, I won and I'm going to cities, I really slacked off on my annotated biblography this year, which was a real risky move. That will definately be on my list for revisons. Last year I had a total of two footnotes (quotes), this year I pulled it up to 15. Big difference. I will also take my judge's advice and work on my grammatical errors.

My NHD experience these past two years has impacted my history experience tremulously. I focus both projects on a certian time period, which I am now an expert on. In 12th grade year depending on the theme, I would like to still focus on it.
