What did I accomplish this week? This week I sent an email to the counselors that I have to talk to. I also had Mr. Marlett sign something that I needed him to sign.
What obstacles did I encounter? It is hard to find counselors for some of the merit badges and I have to try to find someone that knows the topic.
My goal for last week was to finish some of the merit badges I have left like communications and Citizenship in the community.
What is my plan for next week? My plan for next week is to finally finish Citizenship in the community and communications. I am also meeting with a counselor for Citizenship in society at Wendy's. I also plan on meeting with a counselor for two other merit badges. I will be getting three and that is very good.
Every single day I have been working on more and more of the merit badges.
This week at our meeting we had a Court of honor or a COH, and during this, we get all of the awards that we have worked on since the last one. We usually have one about 3 times a year, I got two awards. A previous merit badge that I did with my friends was called movie making, it was really fun. I also got the Paul bunion award
This is the movie making merit badge and i will be putting it on my sash soon. I got this by making a little movie with my friends and by learning how a film camera works. I also had to learn the history of film making and that was fun
