Blog post #9

We are on our final blog day and i can honestly say this M.A.D project had been so much fun. We all got together with people who felt like they could make a change in the CNMI. It was one of the most hardest things to do, but yet so easy, my group wanted to take our project and see if we could get people active by using a method called exercising. I can say i enjoyed all the time spent with this project it was a real good experience. I would feel glad i could get another chance to help people live a healthy life. The CNMI has tackled obesity and diabeties in so many families and we came up with an idea to help some of these famlies. How i usually intended was always to never give up on the crowd who wants to be there. My advice id give is " If you ever have the time to get on your feet , get up and get active."

What have you accomplished?

 -  unfortunately  we have already hosted a day of exercise for life, and i can say it didn't go so well on the fact that no one  showed up, it was really upsetting but i mean we tried.

What has gone wrong?

- well on the fact it really didn't go as planned, we were all prepared but no one showed up.

What challenges have you faced?

- i can say that now everything is a challenge, the most challenging part is mainly getting people to attend our event.

What have you learned through the process?

        - i really don't agree on things going as planned anymore , because we were all ready and when the day came no one showed up.

Are you on track for an on-time delivery?

       - Well i guess i can say that even putting time into a project might still need a bit more time depending on the amount of participants.

What adjustments need to be made on the timeline?

      - as of now i am just waiting for another meeting to attend to get things discussed properly.

My next action is….

       - To donate water and to male sure the project still happens, i'm in a confused state right as of now im still hoping things goes as planned for me and my group.

  • What have you accomplished?
         -  Well so far we have been working on our new adjustments to our proposal to the additional comments that have been made, we are working on our fliers now, me and my team are pretty hyped up about our project. We know that the day will come soon or even maybe this Friday but we still need to make adjustments on the contact info part.
  • What has gone wrong?
        -  Nothing, has gone bad so far because my group and i are active in discussions so i dont think we have a problem.

  • Well what i have learned is that when you work as a team you get the job done faster and you are more prepared when you talk through things.

• What have you accomplished?

           - What we have accomplished so far is setting up a meeting with Ms. Forti, discussing about how we can improve our MAD project , not just by working on getting people to exercise but by showing them that we can have a healthier lifestyle by making healthier choices.

• What has gone wrong?

           - Well nothing has gone wrong its just one of our group mates were absent and we just had to fill her in but nothing has gone wrong, besides the delay on what we are going to be doing.

• What challenges have you faced?

            - Some of them may be the change of idea, one of our mentors recommended that we do movie night on making healthier choices, but then we still haven't gotten together to discuss this matter. So some of us are just straight confused about what will be changed and what will remain.

• What have you learned through the process?

          -  What I have learned is to have everything written down so we will know what we need to have checked on or what needs to be put on hold. I learned that this is really difficult if you are not prepared and if you are adding so much to the process of this MAD project.

• How have your skills improved over the past week?

         - how my skills have improved  is knowing how to agree to disagree, is when i know when i have an opinion on some certain aspect in this project, I usually say sometime that can address a certain situation that me and my team are facing.

• Are you on track for an on-time delivery?

        - I always try to be on track with my team but now we are going through a difficult stage where we will be making many changes, due to what our mentor has said during that one meeting we held during lunch. Me and my group still need to discuss the changes but hopefully things get better.

• What adjustments need to be made on the timeline?

        - Well by the looks of it we will need more time because the many changes that are happening, also the places we will be hosting such events. I right now am at confusing state and i need to get my head out of the gutter. I need to prioritize what needs to be done withing our project.

• My next action is….

        -  My next action is to get my group together and discuss what needs to be done within this project. Also to motivate them and not boss them around because nobody gets along if we are being bossed around and my group is all about communication mostly.
