So, um, how can I best describe my situation??
Uh, I'm just a tad bit behind.
I took this project on two months ago and I am still ages from being anywhere near done. I am writing a curriculum for the nature program that I have been helping out with over the last few years.
"Francis, what do you know about nature?"
I know that if you put a seed in the ground it grows.
"So why are you writing this curriculum if you know nothing?"
"Uh, because if I don't do it, the next person who takes over Nature Nuts might not know what to do!"
"Did you?"
"Yeah"
"But didn't you just say you didn't know anything...?"
In my defence, I have learned massive amounts of things about gardening, forestry, animals, conservation, and outdoorsy activities. Now the problem is that I have to dump all of that information into a somewhat concise guide. I can lead have lead the nature program, and I have a vision for how awesome it could be. But turning that vision into a document has been less than stellar. In fact, what I hand in will barely be good enough, it'll have basic directions, but the quality of awesomeness will be severely lacking. It will look pretty plain. It needs to have copious amounts of information, much like an encyclopaedia, so that anyone who picks this up can run the nature program.
"Oh. You're screwed aren't you?"
Maybe. I still have another week to finish.
"So where's the problem?"
My flight leaves in a few hours.
