So... you're probably wondering where I've been. Where to start...
I suppose, first and foremost, I should apologize - and I am sorry, everyone. The unfortunate truth is that ever since I got home from college, a number of "real life" things have piled up on me (the main culprit being study abroad) and I've simply hit a slump. What does this mean in terms of the project?
It means that, despite being given many terrific tracks-in-progress, even things that I normally enjoy doing (like coordinating this project) aren't catching my interest at all lately. I'm too focused on where I'm going to be two months from now and all of the stress that comes with preparing for that. I think this leaves me with three main options.
1. Cancel the project. Given all of the time and effort you guys have put into this, I'm really, really loathe to pick this. I barely even consider it an option.
2. Wait until I return from Spain. This was originally already worked into the schedule anyway. However, how many of you are really willing to pick this up so many months from now? Not too many, I'd bet. On the upside, study abroad will be out of the picture, and I'll just be concerned with a run-of-the-mill new semester starting. As I'm going to be a college senior, it's not exactly a song and dance I haven't done before, and thus, not something I'm particularly worried about.
3. Hand the project over to someone else. It gains the benefit of being finished on a timely schedule (hopefully), but loses some of the direction I was giving it. Yes, this is my baby and I'm cautious about someone else taking over, but it's the best option for you guys. The only downside is that I'm unsure of who would be a good choice for the job, but I'm sure that could be easily remedied by just taking suggestions and combining that with what I know about the particular members.
Believe me, I am painfully aware of the sizable chunk of time that I have wasted for you folks, and that is why I'm apologizing one more time. I wouldn't blame any of you for being frustrated with me right now. Still, I hope we can come to an agreement of how to work past this.
Sorry, everyone.
