Consider this lesson learned

First quarter has been a huge, huge learning experience.  I’ve learned not to put things off.  Sketchbook, at home project, journals, portfolio...they’re all about to kill me, or have already done their part.
I’ve stayed up until ungodly hours doing my sketchbook.  Who knew that a journal all about what we do in Art could ever be hard?  Actually, it’s not hard.  It just takes a lot of time, because it involves making connections between history, culture, and the art you’re trying to produce.  It’s really, really interesting when you do it in accordance to your art.
The at home project is supposed to reflect 18 hours of work.  18 hours over a course of two days is nine hours per day.  Add on the fact that said project may take even longer than 18 hours.  Needless to say, I pulled consecutive all nighters in order to finish that project in time.
These journals are going to kill me.  I love being insightful, but producing an abundance of thoughts about things I witness in live all at once is slightly stressful.
The math portfolio does not consist of hard math.  But formally writing about math proves harder than the math itself, thus making it a tedious process.
What I’m trying to say: time management is key to not shooting myself in the head next quarter.
