Though I spent a good amount of the period continuing to work on my paper, I had a few other things to do first. I went to pick up my transcript that I had requested the week prior for a scholarship application; I also went and talked to all my A day teachers to let them know I wouldn't be in class next Tuesday because of the choir UIL competition, where we'll be performing. I also picked up one of the Masonic Lodge scholarship applications and spent a couple of minutes looking through it to see if it said anything about the required recommendations.
For the rest of the period, though, I did work on my paper. Right now, I'm at almost 8 pages, and I've reached the point where I've started talking about the majority of my fundraising. Of course, I skipped the section where I'll be talking about child illiteracy as a significant problem in India, so I imagine that part will add at least one, if not two or more, pages to the total count. I'm also going to be incorporating my updates more as they become more relevant later on (I won't be including the ones where I just review books, but instead ones where I thank donors and copy/paste some stories of the kids I helped).
I'm hoping I'll get to work on my paper more over the weekend to make up for my upcoming absence on Tuesday. My goal of having the first draft of it done over spring break still stands. After that, revising and editing won't really be that bad.
