Production Blog: Busy Bee's


     So again my groupmates and I have not begun to film. However plans to film this weekend coming or during spring break even became an option for us. Idline has been busy with work. I have no transportation. Rohanna has not received her schedule for the week to come and Nishayla has her practice days. I have put all my sports and extra curriculars on pause.

     I have been overwhelmed and tired lately. School alone is really taking a huge part in this but its okay because everything for this part of school is going well. Nothing has changed once more everything is still the same. We are just waiting for everyone to get settled and adjust to things again. Since changes are being made and things are just happening everywhere the main priority right now is to just make sure that we all stay safe and protected so that we actually can complete this project. 

     There isn't much to discuss but with all the things happening in our daily lives things definitely aren't boring. Its all actually really chaotic but its manageable. As long as we keep pushing and get to finalizing these dates all should be well. The group tried this weekend but I just had a accident with my car and I wouldn't be able to drive since my car is acting up. I would need to take a lyft or uber wherever we are located. 

    Luckily the place isn't to far when traveling by car. Now the only concern for me is time. I have communicated to the girls that I will be paying for a ride so the timing is everything in these moments for me. Therefore, I asked the girls to let me know at least 24 hours before we are scheduled to go. This provides convenience for me seeing as the pricing maybe be lower if I can schedule the ride in advance and give the times that I need the ride as well.
