NHD reflection

I think that NHD was stressful but not as stressful as it was last year, maybe because I did not wait until the last minute to do everything.  I am glad it is over and I think that the workshops could have been longer and more organized like it was when I was in the 9th grade. What worked for me was that I was able to get a lot of information on my project which was on Muhammad Ali and what did not work for me was the fact that the papers did not have as much help as all of the other people in the other categories. What did not work for me was the time management and the lack of help. I think that if had just a little bit more help I would have gone to the next round of the competition but there is always next time and I am just so happy it is over. I picked Muhammad Ali because he was a person that nobody was talking about and he just seemed really interesting to learn more about. Muhammad Ali was more than just a boxer if you read more information about him. He was involved with the Vietnam War and a lot of information that I did not know about. Next year I think I am going to do another project type which would be easier on me and I could get more help on.
