 1. I spent lot of time trying to use repetition in my website. I spent WAY too much time trying to match everything and make everything look clean. My OCD took over with this one. I do know for a fact that my career will involve me making a website. I plan on going to law school and becoming an attorney, and if I end up having my own practice and firm, I will have to make myself a website for my firm.  CASE STUDY: https://scholar.harvard.edu/sites/scholar.harvard.edu/files/erictaylor/files/technology-teachers-jan-18.pdf  2.

Although in my field--music--is not AI friendly, there are some things that could have some use, like coming up with unique assignments or writing concert programs. I am not sure if I would be prepared to use AI in my field just because of the low possibilities of use and my inexperience with it. It just could not be that viable.  2. I decided to go with a music standard because of my background and major. "Design and implement a personal learning plan" is a huge part of being a musician.
