When it came to 10-20-30, I was a little hesitant. Not having much of a music background myself I thought I would find this benchmark difficult. But when I first started it started to flow in my mind. How I would do it, and how I would end it. What I would use and how I would apply it. With every project, there are ups and downs. The best part was having an epiphany, while the worst part being, trying to ask my parents about music.

 Starting from the worst part. When it was made clear that I had to ask my parents, I put my head down. “This is going to be difficult.” I said to myself. So I went out of my way to go and find music that I thought they would like, which I ultimately did at the end. The excitement of getting that part completed was simply overwhelming.

Ending at the best part. When I was struggling to come up with ideas and designs, I thought I was going to fail. Then out of nowhere when I was eating, it just came to me. A great idea just popped into my head like Mr. Sherif’s random dancing. Applying everything that had come up and adding stuff on over time, I took a final look at the project; it was amazing in my eyes.

            In the end, overcoming challenges give you such a huge sense of accomplishment that will be noted by teachers and peers alike. I was proud of my work and I was not hesitant to turn it in.

10-20-30 Interview

I interviewed Matthew Hamilton about the 10-20-30 benchmark


He thought that the purpose of this project was to get a sense of what was going on back then.


Some questions that he raised were; Is there any similarities between the music lyrics and what was happening in that time?


For him the best part of this project was writing about the music from the different time periods. 


For him the challenging part of this project was the finding of articles for this wiki.


If he were able to change something about what he did for his final project he would do more research on his events.

10-20-30 Reflection

​The wiki looks decently attractive and accessible to audiences. There were some pretty concise analysis about the article and their connections to African American History. The music sections were decorative with videos and audios of preferences from interviewees, who lived through the era of 80s, 70s, and 60s. However, it could've been better. The analysis can be more in depth and there should be connections drawn between the music and the history of that era. 

The challenging part of doing this project was to gather music from people and their explanation of why they like that music. It is necessary to see the connection between the sociopolitical theme of the era, and their influences on music and people lives. Through researching articles and events, one could really tell the systematic theme, especially over 30 consecutive years.

Old man syndrome

​So this is what it feels like....to be an old man...I know im not actually old, being im one of the youngest in the class, but regardless,  i still feel old. Allow me to paint you a picture.  Yesterday im sitting in on a friend of mine's student teaching class. 2 seniors, 1 teacher, 20 something freshman, you get the picture. Im helping with one of the science fair projects and I flash back to my own science fair project.  I actually couldn't remember the details, though i remember the feeling, and some of the things that went on that day.  besides the fair, I got to become friends with some people in my class who im still very close friends with today.  Anyway, after i finish day dreaming I actually started telling the story of that dat! can you believe it? i just told the freshman that....guys, im old...

Our Deepest Fear

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. [Marianne Williamson]

This is my all time favorite quote of all time.
