I am a senior at Oakbrook Preparatory School. This year we are able to design our own class ,which is called senior project. In this senior project class we have to provide a product or a service, and I have decided to use my guitar playing skills to serendade the elderly at nursing homes.

Setting the Dates!
Today I went to see Mrs. Brown at White Oak to discuss the time and days I would come in to play. So far we have agreed to me playing for 30 minutes after school for two Fridays in January and 3 Fridays in February. I plan to work on my final time line with writing down the exact dates and times as well as how many songs I will play. I have also made some more friends whose names are Johnathan and Edith. Johnathan is a former WWII veteran who had some great stories. He told me about D day and how he and his friends stormed the beach while bullets were flying every where. He also told me how important service to your country is so important. Edith on the other hand was a stay at home mom, but she did play a mean game of chess. I was lucky enough to play a quick game with her, which was intense. Here strategies were phenomenal and when I cornered her king I thought I had here. In the end she took my last piece out with her rook. Then surrounded my King I finally surrendered. She made me feel better finally revealing she was a state champion at chess. At the end of the day I was so happy to meet some incredible people.
