REFLECTION
Having a journal is pretty had for me because its always been a problem for me to keep a diary or some type of journal. so its was really hard for to journal every week. Sometimes i would forget and it would be turned in late or sometimes i wouldn’t have the photo because i would forget to take pictures because i usually stay home.
