Looking back on this with two weeks of distance, it&#8217;s still a crazy adventure, but I&#8217;m a lot more optimistic about things. 🙂 Also, I&#8217;ve since bought a new webcam, so the quality should improve <a class="read-more" href="https://sidneybristol.com/2016/02/15/mylifeindevelopmentaledits-feb-1st/">Read More</a>]]></description>
