The Last 10 Percent

It's said the last 10 percent of a project are the hardest. Slogging through the last 3 days of this 30 (school) day course, I feel the wisdom of that remark. I'm just having a hard time motivating myself to work on the final project. (This blog is great for procrastinating!) The multiple-personality-disorder aspect of CDF is starting to get to me. This week, this! Next week, that! It's kind of tiring after a while.

We're all working on our process books too, now, so that's an added thing on top of finishing the USPS form. Our process books are basically a binder filled with printouts of all the work we've done over the past six weeks. It sounds simple until you realize that half the work has been caught on digital camera and needs to make it onto a sheet of paper, printed in color, stuffed into a plastic sleeve, then put in some sort of reasonable order. It's time-consuming, although it is nice to have once you are done with it. It's a nice document of what you've done with your life. Kind of like a blog. :)
