It's getting near that time of year again.  Nope, not the time for sleigh bells, eggnogg, and presents.  CRUNCH TIME!  That time of year where exams are coming up and students are shaking from stress or perhaps too much coffee, and professors are at their breaking point from dealing with all the complaining and whining of the over-caffeinated students.  And yes crunch time is taking its toll on me once again as well.  I feel as though I am battling a homework Hydra and every time I cut off one ugly assignment head, three more assignments grow back.  I am neck deep in a sea of projects and presentations and my head won`t stay above much longer.  I hope you enjoyed those sub-par homework metaphors.   In all seriousness though, it is beginning to get stressful with the deadlines and exams quickly approaching.  To be completely honest, the two main assignments I have that are giving me a bit of stress are in ICT.  Building a portfolio is not a very complicated task, but it is very time consuming and requires a lot of gathering and organizing.  Plus I know how I am with computers and I am expecting to have at least one technological ``problem`` while working on it which will slow me down.  The other project is very open.  It is a fifteen minute group presentation and from what I understand it can be on anything ICT related and in any format. Sounds easy right?  In fact, it sounds like it could be downright fun.  The problem I am having with it is just that I have no idea what I want to do.  Once our group gets together and brainstorms it will probably come together quite nicely and a weight will be gone from my shoulders, but in the meantime I am going to chip away at all my other assignments leaving it so I can focus all my energy towards that one.  In the end it will all fall together, it usually does.
