So two and a half months ago, my Language Arts teacher assigned us a poetry project. No, it wasn't the normal poetry project. It was a huge one where you have to have 40 poems in it for an A. Of course, I want into be AP LA 10, so I sort of have to get a good grade on it. It's due Monday. I just recently finished the 5 sentences and citing for each poem I had to do. And now I have to do some sort of artwork that covers 1/3 of the page for each page.
So what's the hardest or biggest project you've ever had to work on?

Had to make a movie using all types of dialects in the spanish language for a spanish class. Vulgar, coloquial, refined and technical. Ended up being a movie about Ninjas with European swords, parodies of "The Ring" and boobs. that, and chicks fighting. It was awesome.
The professor gave us a few months, but we didn't do anything 'til three days before deadline, because the group hadn't decided on a leader and I forcibly took the reigns. It was hard, but awesomely fun.

My most recent Biochemistry Laboratory Practical portfolio. Nine experiments in detail, with at least six references from various medical journals per project. Mine was handed in on the final deadline, counting out 74 pages... without the handout sheets.
Overall time spent on it: two weeks solid work.
Overall page count: 114 pages A4
FINALLY OVER.

Hmm...probably the time I crammed doing 3 pass, or fail projects from my Gov't, Science, and English classes, and all of them took me 2 weeks to do, and they due in 2 1/2. I've never crammed so much work into so little time, in all of my life, and it's something I hope NOT to repeat in my college years *though, knowing me, I most likely will...*

I wrote 21 pages on the japanese film "Gozu" by Takashi Miike, discussing it in terms of Freud's interpretation of dreams and the homosexual implications therein.
It was ******** HARD. I was lucky to get a B.

I'd say the biggest project I've ever taken on would be helping to clean up the property around my new (and current) house after the previous owner's husband wrecked half the place in a fit of anger. Took us the better part of three months to find everything. >_<;

It was ******** HARD. I was lucky to get a B. 21 pages...on THAT!? *flails* College is sure gonna be tough... It was my senior seminar. Based on which one you do, you'll write a 20 page paper about SOMETHING in order to graduate in the Lit Major.

Hmm...I'd prefer to use a short story as my 20-pager. Easier for me, and a lot more fun, though I hope not to run into writers block during that time...
*despises writers block*

I have a bizarre tendency to have no problem with big projects, and struggle through smaller ones.
For instance, when I had to do a paper and presentation on what it means to be humans, it was done before I even started.
Then I had to write a small paper that was basically a summary of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, and I just couldn't do it.
I don't make sense.

Then I had to write a small paper that was basically a summary of Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis, and I just couldn't do it. I don't make sense. That's like how I am. I hate doing easy work and always put it off because I can get it done so quickly, sometimes not even getting it done but for hard stuff, I work my a** off to do my best. Actually, the hard stuff is usually easier. For this one rock analysis thing where you had to figure out the sequence of events in which rocks form, I didn't even get any help and finished it in a half-hour when everyone else in my class spent a good two hours doing it. AP classes are easier for me because I'm more likely to do the work because they're harder.

Not sure if this counts, but next year I'm taking AP Studio Art. For one of the requirements, we have to focus on a "concentration" and create works based on that concentration throughout the year. By concentration, I mean theme or idea.
I think I'm considering an "east meets west" idea, since I'm headed off to Asia in the summer anyways.
