So ends another week of scrambling. It's been a busy week but hopefully I'm finally getting to the point where I won't have to scramble to meet the deadlines, which I think happened to most of the class after the initial shock of just how much work we have to do here. Hopefully things will cool down from this point on and I'll be able to balance my workload better. It's also been an interesting week because I've seriously settled down with some quality sources and begun pulling information out of them and putting them in my research database. A trick I learned for that. An easy way to keep track of what info you got from who is, instead of just having to look for the citation (which obviously you still need but I just put them all at the front), is color coding each source that way you can just look at your notes and very quickly be able to reckognize where you got them from. From reading other people's blogs I gained some insight on mistakes they've made and learned from that I can then use to look at my own work and apply. Also I gained a sense for just how far behind alot of the class is as far as deadlines which has me a bit worry as I know it's hectic for me as well. Also as I was going through the blog links on my blog erasing the people that either dropped or are complete idiots and not done anything in the past two weeks my links almost all dissapeared for reason and I almost had a heart attack. Blogger is beginning to agitate me.

Yes, there are a lot of people who haven't gotten anything done, but they are still coming to class. So I think they are just getting a slow start. I heard a few of them making plans to get things caught up. When they do get caught up, i'm sure they will need your insights!
