My Schedule

 Monday January 26, 2026

-----------------------

Within this class, I always find it easier to create and map out a timeline according to what I need to accomplish for the week. With a project this vast, it is very important that I stick to my plan and with this in mind, I decided to make the timeline first before anything else. I have around 7 weeks left at the time of writing this; I really want to get the project finished about a week before the deadline so I can make any final tweaks to the final product.
