This week, the challenge has been to juggle changes in my work schedule with making time for my internship. While online classes are more forgiving in terms of due dates and deadlines, an internship is essentially a job and has people on the other end waiting for results. With a coworker out on sick leave and another on vacation, the work load at work has increased significantly. Also, with midterms looming I'm struggling to fit everything in and there are no days off. This was more or less what I'd expected so I fit in study and internship project time where I can so my timesheet reflects the odd hours and sometimes full days dedicated to completing tasks for my internship.
Nothing else to report this week. Although, I wish I could work on my transcriptions during my commute but that's just not practical since I'm convinced it would take too much concentration and the bus would be too loud and I would surely have all my technology stolen. Sometimes I really value all the technology we have and sometimes I wish people would value it less.
On a slightly unrelated note, I watched a program on Braille typewriters. They remind me of those stenographers' machines. It seems like a useful skill to have to be able to type in shorthand like that.
