9-28-10 7:20am-7:45am Before school Nick, Matt and I went in and talked to Mrs. Pirmann about starting up our project.

10-1-10 4:15pm-4:30pm Matt and I were online talking about how we were going to log items when people bring their equipment into extra-life.

10-7-10 6:00pm-6:45pm I called up Pizza Hut and talked to the manager a bit about getting food donations for the event.

10-8-10 10:00am-10:30am Nick and I talked more about getting the posters and permission forms and how we were going to set them up. While Nick and I were talking he realized that he is really good friends with the owners of a pizza place. So instead of me taking care of donations of food and stuff he decided to take that responsibility and i was now in charge of getting the advertisements going.

10-14-10 10:00am-10:45am 1:15PM-2:00PM Today in senior sem. I edited and printed all of the forms that students would need to participate in the ExtraLife event.Then Nick and i went to Mr. Johnston at the main office to get the poster approved to be able to post them around the school.Later that day during D block itinerant I walked around the school posting them in the designated areas.

10-18-10 7:00pm-9:00pm Spent about 2 hours talking to Nick and Matt about what the freak we were going to do about Puckett not sure about wanting us to do our event and figuring out alternative options.

10-20-10 9:45am-11:00am Spent about half the block trying to talk to MR pucket about setting up the event and the rest setting the rest of the poster up and getting the rest of the forms printed.

10-25-10 11:45am-1:pm So When i was in C block I was out in the hallway doing a class room project Nick saw me in the hallway and explained that Mr. puckett canceld out Extra Life event. As to why i was not sure. So I walked down to Mr. Pucketts office and after about an hour of talking and question I came to the conclusion Mr. Puckett is an ass. He cancled our project AFTER signing the papers saying we could use the building because he didnt want to pay for janitors. I believe there are other reasons but he had to make some bullcrap up to get me out of his office.

11-1-10 9:30am-11:00am So Nick and i not having a new place to hold our event get right on trying to find a new building and start calling lots of places. I started off with calling the Flourtown fire dept., To no avail, They do not host any form of charity event plane and simple. Then I called up the Wyndmoor fire dept., They said that they might have a place that we could use and told me i could come by later that day. If though i was given a "yes" I continued to look just in case. I called the Seven Dollors church and they also said to come by later that day.

11-1-10 5pm-7pm I went up to the Wyndmoor fire station and they even said they would donate the building to use and we could use it free of charge. So when I got in i found that it was too small and could only fit about 10 people comfortable for what we were planning plus it didnt really have many power outletts and that is a must for what we need. I then walked over to the church wich was right near the fire station. There building was alot bigger but it had the same issue that the fire dept. had; not many power outletts. They also had no internet. It would be really hard to have a 24 game marathon with no internet access.

11-22-10 9:40-11am When i arrived to b block that day Nick had told me that his dad found the perfect building. An old bank. It had internet,power room for alot of people. So at first I was really happy the i was hit with a huge sinking feeling. We needed to set this up and we had to do it fast. So we sat and talked for a bit and decided the best date would be the 18th because it was right before break and people would be eager to go. So with our date less then a month away we started opening up our old documents and editing them.

12-3-10 9:40am-11am Nick and I continue to edit the old extra life papers and flyers. We also figure we need to start handing them out soon, So we put some up in the office and we also take them down to Mrs. Pirmans room just incase and someone figures to go there.

12-18-10 to 12-19-10 7am18th-9am 19th

Nick and i arrived early so we can start to set up everything it took about 2 hours to hook up all the Tv's and Computers along with getting the internet to start running. We soon realised that the heater was not properly working and needed to have that fix. So we called up the heating company responible for the building and got them to come as soon as possible. Later that day we held a C.o.D tournament. We had winners of each game play each other while losers watched. Later at night more people showed up and we set there things up and helped them out.
