rededicating myself

Im sorry i haven't posted in forever it feels like its just that this project has gone down hill quick. First off i don't know what to blog about, second i honestly haven't done anything. I could lie and tell you that i have made a lot of progress, but that is not the case. I also could say that i don't have time but that's not an excuse, because i have all week to make time for this project. I really need help on what to blog about so i would appreciate it if i could get some advice, because i honestly haven't posted for that reason. if you want to know how much progress i've made well i still haven't ordered the pen, yea i know its sad. I almost gave upon this project, but i really want to dedicate my self to finishing it and keeping up with it. I think sometime next week i'm going to try out the vaseline idea which will be my first attempt at waterproofing paper. If you want me to be honest i think this attempt is going to be a complete bust i have no hope whats so ever for vaseline to be the solution.If you want to see my other ideas on how i plan on waterproofing paper you can look in my previous blogs. Some other information is in the previous blogs so go check those out. Anyways moving on, i have the most hope for sucess in the acrylic spray, because if im not mistaken acrylic is involved in the making of whiteboards and i know those are waterproof. This is the point in my blogs where i don't know what to say and where i need your help so please i need feedback on how to make these more interesting and even a little bit longer. I will be back for sure with the new dedicated Chase Lane next week with something hopefully to talk about (vaseline attempt) i will post some pictures of the procedures i took and describe what is going on in the picture so hopefully you can get a feeling of how and what i did. Catch you back next week but for now peace out.

Research 2

So honestly the past two weeks I was gone out of the town. The first week I was in Daytona for my sisters cheerleading competition and the second week I was in Atlanta also for my sister. Anyways I got another suggestion for a method to waterproof paper from a classmate today, his theory was to use Vaseline. I’m not positive it will work very well, but I’m willing to try. One of the important things I was able to research was what type of ink I need to use in order to write on the paper. My research led me not able to find the certain ink but I did find pens that are categorized as waterproof pens. So I’m looking to buy one so I’m able to complete my project, but the issue is they are quite expensive. Tomorrow I will find the pen I will buy (probably the cheapest) and let you know the details about. Lastly I promise this time I will follow up on this.
