NHD Draft
I feel confident about my topic in this draft. I feel like I truly have a topic that is not only a part of history but is a part of our local history. What I love about my topic is that nobody knows about. I love it when people say, "That really happened," or "I have never heard of that." It makes me feel like I taught somebody that day. I am concerned about my works cited part of my essay because I am confused about what goes on it.
I felt like the detailed outline helped me a lot because it showed me what to write about in each paragraph. The hard part was the works cited because I am confused about what it is supposed to be. When you read my paper I want you to focus on me repeating myself because I seem to do this a lot and to help me fix my works cited.

LSU Game
On the first day of our snow day the LSU basketball team would host the number 11 ranked team in the country, the Kentucky Wildcats. This has been a game I have been eyeing since the beginning of the season. This game is especially important for me because my sister's boyfriend is from Kentucky and is a huge Kentucky fan.
When the roads iced over my dad told me that there was a chance that we wouldn't go to the game, but we did because he didn't want those tickets to go to waste. This was easily the best part of the snow days for me. LSU ended up upsetting Kentucky in a game where Kentucky never saw the lead. It was a game I will never forget.

NHD Topic
My topic for National History Day is about the Baton Rouge Bus Boycott. When I heard about this boycott I didn't think that it was a big deal, but once I started researching the topic I found out that it played a huge role in the Civil Rights Movement. What I want to do is prove that this boycott was the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement, and to raise awareness in Baton Rouge about it. In some sources it didn't mention the boycott being the first, but in others it stresses this a lot. I think that this movement was the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement.
In Baton Rouge many people have never heard of the Baton Rouge Bus Boycott. I would say that 80 percent of people have never heard of it. According to my research the Baton Rouge Bus Boycott was an inspiration to the boycott in Montgomery and an influence to MLK to start the Civil Rights Movement. This is an important part of Baton Rouge's history and the fact that it is going unnoticed is mind blowing.

Day in the Life
My day is usually the same thing over and over again. First I wake up at 6:35 so I can get to the bus. I arrive to school at 7:20. I hangout until school starts, and then I go to each of my classes. I look forward to break because I am able to talk to my friends but mainly because I get food. For some reason I am always hungry at school.
After lunch we have tutorial where I mostly do my homework. Then we have our last two classes, and then its time for basketball. Everyday of the week I either have a game or practice. I look forward to basketball because it's something I enjoy doing in the day. After basketball I will eat dinner play some PS4, take a shower, and then go to bed. That is what my day consists of.

NHD Topic
My topic is about the Baton Rouge Bus Boycott. I chose this topic because many people do not know about it. This boycott is said to have given MLK the idea of the boycotts he started. If this statement is true then the Civil Rights Movement started in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
I chose this topic because lots of people do not know that this even happened. If you asked the people of Baton Rouge about this boycott, about 75% of the people will say they have never heard of it. My goal is to raise awareness about the boycott so that people will give credit to Baton Rouge.
