Cosmetic Chemistry
The purpose of this project was to create three cosmetic products and learn from the chemistry behind it such as saponification. We were divided into 3 or 4 groups and were required to make soap as a class and search for two other recipes online. These products were going to be sold on exhibition night once they were packaged and when we had a magazine ad, billboard, and a brochure of our product and the company. Our group was named Temptation in the beginning but we later changed it to Simply Soft. The products we decided to make where Shea Butter Soap, Exfoliating Scrub, and Lip Balm. When we had our final products ready we had to package them and sell them on exhibition night.
Reflection
My favorite part about this project was making the brochure and seeing how good our Exfoliating Scrub turned out. I also enjoyed making the Shea Butter Soap and Lip Balm because we got to add scents that we liked and it was something I probably would have never tried at home. I'm really proud of the scrub because we got to sell all of it and it smelled so good I wanted to eat it! Although this is probably one of my favorite projects that I have done, I've never wondered about how soap is created or how it works it was a really interesting experience to learn these things. If I were to do this project again, I would have communicated more with my team mates and Laura. I think that if we would have communicated a little bit better, our grade would be a hire and we wouldn't have had problems finding out who was responsible for what. This project taught me that I can accomplish things with people that are dedicated and that I communicate to find out what needs to get done so I can help.

Architecture & Design Project
For this project we had to create blue prints of our dream house. We were given a piece of land and had to make a house following the zoning law.For our group we used Google sketch up to create a 3-D sketch of the house. Once the blue prints and everything else were following the zoning laws we created an Ad promoting the house we created and were trying to "sell" the houses on exhibiton night.
Reflection
My favorite part of this project was designing the Ad and creating the title page because I felt like I could show a bit of my creativity. I'm really proud of the grade we got because we all worked really hard on this project and especially the person that was in charge of the sketching. If I were to do this project again I would help out my team mates more and ask Laura for advise on what should be revised.
