At last, the Genius Hour Project has finally reached its end. The twelve weeks have gone by faster than I expected. I have begun working on my presentation. I ran into a problem while working on it, my slides got deleted and I couldn’t get them back. This was frustrating because I had already done a lot of work on it. However, after about an hour of trying, I finally fixed it and got my slides back. I had to buy Canva Pro so that I could access the document history and go back to it before the slides got removed.
I’m nearly done with my presentation. I just have to add a few things and make the video part of it. This will be due when I get back from winter break. I think my presentation is going to be good. Nonetheless, it’s still a little bit stressful because it’s not something I have done before. I’ve been catching up on some much-needed practice, and I'm glad I have winter break to continue finishing up the project. For the video part of the project, I am going to record myself playing Upside Down by Jack Johnson, and if I have enough time in my presentation I might add a few other things to the video, like the Arabian music I learned and maybe the intro to Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson. Since I replaced my guitar strings last week, I have noticed that they have been getting out of tune more easily, which makes sense if you think about it. This week I have been focusing on practicing by playing through my songs with minimal mistakes. I have also been strumming without a pick because for some reason I just like not using a pick. I would rather use my fingers. However, it is more difficult for me to do it without a pick.

I really liked your presentation, and the video of you playing was impressive!
