Taken for Granted and Punched Offcourse

As always I have been working on the lists of projects which overwhelms all of us on a daily basis. The summer only has four weeks left before most of the team has to prepare for going back to college for their last battle with the dreaded school system, just two semesters left for them! Meanwhile what will I be doing? I really should be looking for new members, but i since all the Graphics, Fashion, Project Management, and Creative Decisions lay all on my shoulders with teaching the team I seem to have taken on four times more than I could chew. Dreams are only something if you make them work, but
damn is it hard to get motivated with no princess at my side checking up on my well being. Oh well, for the sake of the state and myself I will push forward.

Where did I go or actually do this weekend? I was discussing the future of my friend Sean with what direction he wanted to go. Not like we havent already done this ten times over. I finally got it through my head I should just push work at him and make assignments for him to do. Sounds easy enough right? not so easy if you know he is very busy, kind, and has hard working intentions with the power of horse. Darn those feelings, who needs them! well after awhile of just pondering I started giving my friend more responsibility on researching the 1960's Family Life Style and Social Trends, so we could get a head start on Shibuyakei. The assignment was a five page report on the era so the rest of us could get some idea of what it was like back then before typing away at a whole nother book.

Later in the evening Sean and I  were talking about another team mate... yeah gossip. Team mate Allan had not performed again because emotions got in the way when he heard someone with a higher authority "Admiral" one of the higher profession ranks told him to have fun. His brain says Go have fun its your last time! I look at him thinking WTF is your problem. I think of the situation in an orderly fashion... This guy is struggling to grow up. He neglected growing up his whole life and his own responsibilties. He has this one summer to learn it or take a huge life plunge into pavement. He has someone who is counseling him one on one almost seven days a week who has his own financial, social, and family obligations which only got put aside this one summer for the sake of what he is learning is a total douche bag. Hmmm this is quite screwed up. Im not sure how much more I want to invest in such a indeaver. If someone took you for granted and tossed all your teachings because they couldnt listen to their brain, would you keep helping them?

The evening comes and I try to calm down from my most valuable asset of time has been clearly gone down a shit hole. I go to bed with the mixed       thoughts of Alan, the Website, and the Projects.

 What to do, what to do... I just know priority one is definately the Rinascimento Project, so that is what I shall proceed with.
