I have a feeling that starting my project will end up being the most difficult part for me. I've always had some trouble jumping into something that seems overwhelming, because often I can't figure out where to start. This leads to day after day of procrastination, and becomes a vicious cycle of overwhelming-ness. It'll definitely help me to have planned out my time, and to set deadlines for myself. Even though this first outline is assigned, it might have to become a bi-monthly routine for me, just so I have some sort of organized plan. I suppose I'll see how this one works out - trial run and all that!
(I'm going to assume the week starts on Monday, because I don't really know...)

This will bring me to the end of my first book (available online! http://inventwithpython.com/chapters/ Yaaay, so convenient! :D) This will be my tentative schedule for the first two weeks. From what I've seen, Al Sweigart's books seem really informative as well as easy to follow, but I could end up sorely mistaken, which would mean altering my schedule to work for a different book. Also, I'm not sure exactly how long each chapter will take - some might take longer than others, so that might require some switching around. This schedule will serve as an outline, though, and at least keep me on task.
