Starting University: the end coming soon?
Well today I had my first “day” (kinda like a half day today) and it was a little overwhelming but the worst is yet to come. I honestly fear for HPAW at this time as I may no longer have the time and dedication to spend to it. I am not trying to cause a panic or anything, HPAW is not ending now, although soon is a possibility now.
For those who care, I am now a first year student in the Engineering Science program at Simon Fraser University (SFU). From what I have been told I will likely have about 13 hours to spare per week which works down to about 2 hours per day. It takes at least 3 hours to bring an HPAW episode from raw filmed version to the final edited version that lands on our servers (not to mention the time to actually film it or that time to plan it). I will be trying my hardest but I also will be getting a part time job in the next few weeks to help pay for my tuition and textbooks; I spent almost $400 today on textbooks, even though I got the most expensive one via bittorrent the magic of the internet.
Oh and Teclis is doing very similar stuff up at SFU as well.
College is hard but if you work hard you can get thought it. I hope you can keep HPAW alive by spacing out the planning, filming, and editing.

First day at college, Congratulations. Hopefully you can balance your schedule out so you have time to do episodes.

Congrats on going to college. The first year was the hardest for me in terms of my schedule, but it should get easier from then on.
