My project is going to be a Sophomore Get Together. I see this project as a way to bring the class together more and let them enjoy and have fun together. It would be a nice breather from school and would allow people to just chill out. This get together could include a movie, food, games, and activities. I will get ideas and suggestions from my peers in order to find out what most people would enjoy doing in the time provided. I am asking Tyler to help me get the event organized and help gather ideas.

As a result of this project, I hope to see people finding enjoyment and better bonding within the class. It’s a good way just to talk and get to know people who you really don’t hang out with. Although I find this project quite fun, there will be obstacles along the way. I think some of the big obstacles are finding something people would be interested in doing, finding a time and place and just putting it together so it runs smoothly and as planned. The milestones that I’m going to meet are to select the setting for the event, gather ideas, and prepare for the event by making signs and spreading the word. I will ensure that I reach these milestones by staying organized and being efficient. I should plan things out ahead and not wait last minute to do things, in other words, procrastinate on this project. Also, staying organized and gathering as many ideas as possible would give me better judgment on overcoming my obstacles. I am going to need are lots of good ideas, organization, and a meeting place along with an advisor. I believe I would only need one other person and the mentor to help me. With the mentor, I would need to coordinate a time and place that would work for both of us. The other member would help me get organized and help gather good ideas to help me plan out what the highlights of the event will be. My plan is to work efficiently, stay organized, listen to others, and executing my goals.
