End of the semester

Today I got a strong realization that the end of the semester is coming near.  The reason  I got such a strong realization of that fact is because of the last couple of projects due in my classes in order to graduate.  One project in particular is causing some stress.  A little bit of stress is always a good sign that I am about to be done with my classes but,  I don't know if the stress I am feeling this time is due to the fact that I have a project due or the fact that in order to complete my project, I need to rely on other people whose participation is beyond my control.  It wouldn't be that bad if their participation wasn't such a large part of my project but, because of the nature of the project, their participation is vital.  I have a couple more days left before I will have to think of an alternative idea in order to compensate for this issue.  Tune in to the blog in a week to see what the answer to the issue was.
