So now we've started to gain traction with getting the project back on track; I feel that the general despondence within the team is beginning to manifest into something more positive; despite our performance up to this point in the unit leaves something to be desired we are determined that these next few weeks can get us back on track.

Following our discussions on our group chat the general consensus was we need to engage with the client and move forward with an altered brief which takes into account the reaction of the MMU team when the application was proposed.

I definitely have more confidence in my ability to do this now that the whole issue with the supposed liquidation of our client has been rubbished and resolved. Having a line of communication once again with the director is probably the most beneficial thing that we can do at this point and we have arranged a face to face meet this week so we can move forward constructively.

My conversation with Mark last week also helped bring up my spirits in regards to our progression in the unit - I remember him saying "It's not necessarily about where you are now it's more about how you bring it up to speed and progress in the second semester"

Literally the best thing I think we can do going forward is continue with the momentum that we have built up in the last week so we can stay on top of everything - the main reason that we lagged last term in my opinion is that with the ambiguity of the company's position we lost the initiative and became swamped with the pace of the project. Not this time!
