Panic! At The Showcase

With research showcase fast approaching, my anxiety levels continue to rise as I rush to get everything done on time. I have yet to finish my five interviews, and due to the fact that this is the busiest time of year for orthopedic surgeons and physical therapists, it has becoming increasingly difficult to get responses, let alone actually schedule interviews. The success of my original work is partially contingent on confirming a mentor, so I have currently hit a wall in terms of my progress.
However, although I am struggling with interviews, this past week I was able to finish my preliminary board design. I am in no way an artistic person, but with the help of my peers and my mother (thanks mom!) I was able to get the essential information on the board without having a complete disaster. Now, I simply have to add some minutia here and there and my board will be complete.
Thus, this upcoming week will be extremely busy, and I'm definitely in panic mode. However, I will work extremely hard to make sure that I get my last interview done, and will constantly be calling professionals left and right to get it done. Next, I will strive to fully complete my board, and finalize my research and work necessary to make sure it looks perfect. If you see me resembling a character from the Walking Dead at anytime this week, feel free to slip me some coffee.
