Clear and to the point???

Today I got through the majority of my "Project Guideline." That's basically just a word document full of my topic, essential questions, and will later include my 10 web sites. I thought it would be smart to get some of my major project concerns down in writing hoping that would make research and finding sites easier.

I am starting to get a little nervous as far as my topic, im starting to wonder whether or not it will make a great project like I want to put forth. Along with whether or not I will be able to make my point of the project clear.

Maybe I should talk to Mrs. Savito to make sure im on the right track and see whether or not my ill be able to get my project point across.

I LOVE DOM! <3
