- ok this project is basically spelled out for you in the content and guide lines portion just read and start writing I find the best place to start is the very beginning you may want to use some strategy in this like for all of the things that need a 5 paragraph essay write 1 a day then take a day off then on the last day reread it over and add to it I definately recomend doing this on the computer for 2 reasons 1st of all it is a lot neater than hand writing and second that means that you can edit it as much as you like this is a great thing to have and to make it the best rescource you can I believe you should put the most detail you can so it might mean putting your first middle and last name now and it may seem like a lot of work but when you look back on it in the future it will be an amazing thing good luck and remember to have fun with it
