Friday’s are exhausting for me. Typically, I spend the morning trying to get a few productive things done on design projects before heading out for the day.

In fact, I take pride in taking the intimidation out of it – since that’s usually the biggest obstacle. But it’s very tiring. My head needs to go full speed in most classes and I’ve always found that working at several different kinds in one day (mentally switching gears) really wears me out. Not that I’m complaining…
