The availability of the NXT is a joke!

Someone in the class is illiterate, either that or they are extremely inconsiderate. The note that I left on the NXT last night clearly stated the fact that Alex and I are all set up and ready to film this morning. If you think I'm pissed off about this wait until you hear what Alex has to say about this. After all, he was the one who spent hours rebuilding it yesterday so we could be ready to film this morning. We spent a few hours trying to locate the NXT but nobody seems to be any the wiser as to where it has gone. This is incredibly annoying as there are only a couple of weeks left on this project, we had carefully planned this out so that we could have all our footage shot by today giving us a healthy few weeks to edit and apply the finishing touches. We also decided upon filming today so we could avoid the rush of people that are less organised. It is clear that for a project that uses a prop that nearly half the class needs to film it will take a certain degree of cooperation to ensure things run smoothly, for example at the start of the project Tom knew he had to go away skateboarding so Alex and I agreed to let Tom and Rory use it first as they wouldn't have time later on in the project. It is this consideration and ability to negotiate resources that certain members of the class lack, it is because of this that the project is becoming more difficult that it needs to be.
