</font><div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif">* Wrestled with some of the uDig/Eclipse walkthroughs and configurations</font></div><div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif">* Never heard of Design Patterns, so had to catch up on some of the key patterns mentioned the past couple weeks.</font></div>
<div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif">* Time management! Juggling so many different pieces and having to familiarize myself with so many new things at once. I'm hoping this will smooth out as I learn more. I also plan to set up some kind of Project Management system to help me stay organized and focused. </font></div>
