What I improved and need to improve on: I think in this project, I learned how to do lead ins better, and I improved my citation skills. What I also think I need to improve on is my organization skills. My clock didn't look really organized, and I want to improve on that.
I spent 3-4 hours on this, writing and drawing it, and I got a 95. ://// I wanna cry :(
