Things are still going pretty well, but it\u2019s a little more challenging now that deadlines are getting closer and closer. It\u2019s not so much that there\u2019s a lot of work left to do \u2013 it\u2019s not like there was ever a ton of work for each of us individually to begin with \u2013 but just knowing that we need to be done in another week or so has created some slight anxious tension.
\nAt this point, I think the hardest thing has definitely been keeping up with group meetings. For the first portion of the semester, our group was only meeting on Friday mornings, and that wasn\u2019t all that bad; now, we\u2019ve been meeting around twice a week and there\u2019s a good chance we\u2019ll be meeting more than that as we get into the last week. The meetings are helpful, so it\u2019s not an issue of wasting time, but living over half an hour off campus has made meeting something of a challenge. Most of our meetings are in the morning and I have to account for at least 45 minutes of travel, sometimes more if I\u2019m leaving during the morning work\/school rush. Between late nights working on assignments for all of my classes and getting up really early to try and get to meetings on time, sleep has become a bit of a luxury and I really can\u2019t wait for this all to be over.
