Okay, now I am really, really close to the goal. I only have Kingscross and Knockturn Alley left (and some parts of the Forbidden Forest). Today have finished Entrance Hall, Gringotts, Main Hall and Astronomy Tower. It's still a long way to go though, until we are finished with the book and the report and everything. But at every or almost every of the places we wanted t0 write about will be finished when we hand it in on Friday.

So, here's my list of accomplishments and stuff I've yet to do:

Done
Little Whinging
Hogsmead
Durmstrang
Beauxbatons
The Black Lake
The Chamber of Secrets
The Room of Requirement
Potions Class
Gringotts
Astronomy Tower
Entrance Hall
Great Hall

Working With
The Forbidden Forest

Haven't started with
Kingscross/Platform 3/4
Knockturnalley

It seems to me that Cime is also doing great, and I'm sure that we will be done in time.

I have also thought a little bit about the time we have spent/are supposed to spend on this project. I think that we are supposed to spend 100 hours. If we presume that everytime we sit down to work with this, we sit down for about three hours, we have worked for about...42 hours. (The answer to life, the universe and everything! o_O). And we have also read the books, of which there are six. The time taken to finish a book is about 9 hours...so if we add that, we have worked for about...96 hours?! Jesus Christ.

If we are only supposed to spend 100 hours, and not a second more, forget I ever wrote that last part, will ya?

It all feels so much easier now than it has ever done before. I've found out that this hasn't got to be as hard as it sometimes can appear to be. When I think about all work that I'll have to put down to this is feels really heavy, but when I sit down with it and start writing it is quite easy.
I've finished quite a lot now, so I don't have to panic any more. At least it feels like that.
This is what I've finished:
The Burrow
Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place
Ministry of Magic
Azkaban
The Knight Bus
Hagrids Hut
the Hogwarts Houses

and I'm almost finsihed with Diagon Alley, The Quidditch Pitch and Hogwarts. Though the places I've "finsihed" probably need some adjustments. But anyway! Yeei!

Yikes. Now I have accomplished one of my goals, which is having more on the "Done" list than on the "To do" list. Today I've finished my articled for The Room of Requirement, Potions Classroom, and The Chamber of Secrets. It took me about two hours. That means that I have yet to finish:
Kingscross/Platform 3/4
Knockturnalley
Gringotts
Astronomy Tower
Entrance Hall
Great Hall

I'll work more on them tomorrow. Right now, everything feels great, and I know that I will be able to do this within the given time. I really like to work with this. :D

I've been sitting and writing now for about an hour and a half on Diagon Alley, I'm kinda finished with the significant anecdotes and the real loactions on the shops and so there. The hard thing now is to find the damned possible influences... I'm getting really stressed out now... it's week 2 now and the first extract from our work are supposed to be handed in week 10... shit.. /cime

I've been sitting and writing for like three hours today, so I feel pretty satisfied with myself. I've finished all the hogwarts houses and azkaban and the burrow. But when it's all finished I'm going to go trough it all again of course.
Actually I feel a bit lesser stressed now... But there's yet a long way to accomplishing the goal...

Today I've finished my article about Hogsmeade, and that's really a relief. And also, finally, I have saved a list of my places on my computer, so now I have it here when I need it.

I also took a quick look at it, and it seems like this may not be as impossible as I first thought when I heard that we have to be almost ready at the beginning of Sportlovet. If we really work our asses off, this might even work. Hurray for Sanna and Cime ^___^

I've also noticed that it might be very good to save ALL my sources for information, so I've started to do that now.

We've been wondering if we have to put a date right next to all the sources, cause Cime's mother told us that that's the way to do it. But if one do that, what if you use the same sourse many times? Then it'll only be dates and dates and dates and...well, we'll skip that. No dates.

I've been working for some hours now, but that is not much. To search facts takes a lot of time. Nevertheless, I'll soon be finished with Durmstrang, Beauxbatons and the Black Lake, and then I will star working with the Entrance Hall and Great Hall, or whatever they are called. -.-

Right now I'm very tired, therefor I can't write proper English. Sorry for that.
now I've been sitting for almost two hours, so now I'm empty.
We've found out that our layouts for the schools (Hogwarts, durmstrang, Beauxbatons) we're writing about isn't matching, but that's a problem to be solved futher on.
