Over the past week I was in Florida for cheerleading, so I did not get as much work

work and cheer to the side for at least a week to pound out most of the grunt work.
So far, I have finished my fundraising and I am just waiting for people to be free to
give me their clothes. Challenges I have faced so far in this project is
communicating times with others to pick up donations. I've also struggled with
time and balancing my life with school life especially since I was away, I found it
difficult to be checking messages as it was also a 3-hour time difference. My
solution to this was to take care of my well-being first by just waiting to answer till
I was back as the stress was a lot for me to handle. The core competencies I've
