I was a team member in a team called "Catalyst of Change". The application the group has created is an application meant to encourage and recommend sustainable alternatives to consumers.

However, despite making it to the top 5, I felt that I didn't gain much from it besides improving my presentation skills. This is because the teachers supporting this project did most of the work as the only part of the work I did was make the camera stream bigger and changing the display of the table which I blindly vibe coded. It also didn't help that I procrastinated a lot in this project. As a result, I often felt useless.


Because I felt I was not gaining anything out of this and I was feeling stressed because I was overwhelmed over school work, I was kind of hoping that our team would get eliminated from the competition. However, I still did my best because I did not want to disappoint the teachers supporting the project and my teammates.

Overall, even though this team made it to the top 5, I wished I have made more contributions to the project. Even now, I still struggle with

procrastination as I was meant to upload a week ago but continued to delay it until one day before I have to submit my portfolio to my Class Advisor. Reflecting on this experience, It has made me realized that I need to change my behavior in order to be suitable for the working life.
