1. I did half of the application for UC schools to then realize I don't want to do all that work because I probably won't go there even if I get in. That wasted a lot of time :) (40 min) 2. Then I removed 6 out of the 14 too many words I had on my common app essay. (15 minutes) 3. Finished Common App (20 min) 4. Started essays for Seattle University (Rest of class)

1. I continued working on my thesis paper. I believe it's coming along pretty well. I'm about five pages in. I'm going to ask Mr. Correa to proof read it. 2. I also was contacted by a booking agency to perform a show on April 27th. However, it was in Forth Worth on a Friday night at around 11 pm. I declined because I don't think a lot of my peers would drive roughly 40 minutes to go see me perform that late at night. Luckily, the agent asked if I was available May 18th. I accepted this offer although its the same night as Townview prom. Most of my friends aren't even going to that so I decided to take it!

1. I decided to create a Hip-Hop album for my thesis. I got the idea from Obasi Shaw, a Harvard student who created an album for his Senior Thesis. I want to talk about social injustice our country/the world faces (race, religion, sexual orientation) in the songs from the album. I also want to touch on my own hardships not only facing these injustices, but also my struggles throughout life in general. 2. I started making the first track for the album. No title yet for album or any tracks yet. Demo: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2W25MhLrhfENlQwdkRKN1VNaE0
