The first phase, which took place after finals in summer before the start of my co-op term was a lot more structured. As well, we had two to three people working on it at once and I didn't start co-op yet. Unfortunately, at the moment it’s the latter.

I said the same for a friend who pulled off something like this a while back. Only problem is I can't find a good time to do something about it, since it's currently in the middle of a phase and since the team basically consists of me, myself, and I, responsibility tells me I should stick around until it's done, whenever that is going to be.

Working 11 hours a day, and add 10 hours for extra-curricular stuff, and you can't possibly have a work-life balance. Why do you need to work the two jobs? Do you have a debt to some scary mafioso types? Okay, here’s your problem right here- you have two jobs!
