Crunch Time #campaigns10 #teamyellow #rtyd

Tomorrow will mark exactly 4 weeks until our campaigns presentation. Nervous is an understatement by a long shot. Thus far I have logged over 90 hours outside of the classroom working on this project and I'm sure that number will double by the end of this. We meet as a team and for different groups basically everyday to discuss something or another, but what I am worried for is creating the tangible products. If it takes us this long to decide what we are going to say in a 2 minute brief description of our idea, how long is it going to take us to create a plans book, opening video, and to write the actual script. At this time I would like to thank my wonderful team for being the type of people that I want to spend time around. It would be a VERY long next four weeks if we did not get along. At least this is work I want to be doing and am interested in. Would I rather be outside enjoying the weather? Well yes, but this is still by far the most enjoyable class related experience I have ever had. This brings me to my final idea, which is not necessarily about campaigns itself but rather what it represents. Is it not ironic that I will work a million times harder for this class and actually enjoy it, and never once think about the grade I am going to get, but yet struggle to find anything interesting in other classes and constantly be concerned about the grade. I think there is definitely something to be said for classes that focus way too much on grades.
