Yesterday 5/30 Tomorrow 6/1

Yesterday we went to the Carnegie Library in Oakland, I had checked out two books, however I did check out two other books to help me on my graduation project for school. All books are on the history of hockey.

Tomorrow, we discussed that I will not be at school due to the death in the family, so let me know what we are doing so I can make the work up

Class Work 5/15 - 5/18

For the past three days I have been working on my webliography, so far I completed it, and it did take me a while because some of the websites I intended on using at first were not going to work for my project at this time, but I found more to help me out.

My webliogrpahy ended up being about 7 pages long double spaced and I talked alot about the web sites and how they will help me with my graduation project.

I'm sorry for not updating on yesterdays blog but since I summed up three days of completing a webliography, well heres the blog.
