Yeah my last years Gsoc time management i found hard mostly because i
had a really bad sleeping pattern and i would grind out and work way
too much for like 2 weeks then spend 2 days sleeping and then same
thing again.

It was kind of stupid but this year i treat it like 9-5 but i can seem
myself working on a lot more once i get to parts when its mostly a
grind at the moment i am filling in and fixing lots of awkward pieces
which takes time.

But Gsoc is very flexible so i wouldn't worry about having to do
things in RL if you feel your are on track in your own time frame then
your ok.
