Week 8 Progress

This semester is going great so far. I'm a little behind, but not by much. The extra credit Wikipedia trails will make up the difference, and I plan to use several over the next few weeks while researching runes and memes and Maya script for the project. I do need to implement a better weekly routine, and I could definitely adjust my work schedule for more time early on in the week.

I'd like to try something different for the next few weeks: Start with the blog and project feedback first. The reading and story assignments always come easily, but putting off all that feedback until the very end makes it much more difficult to provide quality responses. I'm going to do one each day, and I'll try to alternate between blogs and projects (I tend to get unfocused if I lump everything together in one or two sessions). Also, leaving myself only the project to focus on at the end of the week sounds pretty good, as I've secretly been having way too much fun learning how to use Twine and dressing up the writing mythologies for an interactive story.

Every little assignment, quiz, test, and double-shift amounts to something. This semester is my last as an undergraduate, and even though sometimes I still feel stuck and clueless there's a purpose and a reason to keep moving forward.
