Tangerine Week #3

Hello. I hope you all are safe and well. I know this weekend has been a little out of the ordinary and pretty high on the crazy scale. But, that is why we face hard times, so that we know we can get through them and move on to the next challenge. If you need anything, please let me know.

And now back to your regular scheduled programming...Since we have lost a day, I have shifted some things around and cancelled an assignment. You may notice from the outline of things to do this week, we will not be writing a review of a movie or piece of music. Don't be sad, we'll make it up elsewhere. You have many assignments to take care of. Remember, please stay organized and work out your time management so you that you don't get behind or end up having to do everything the night before!

The fact is, that to do anything in the world worth doing, we must not stand back shivering and thinking of the cold and danger, but jump in and scramble through as well as we can.
