Buffering

I'm a bit behind schedule.. Thankfully I delegated two weeks for "review", also known as "Just incase I need more time", which clearly I do.
Coming back into class, it was pointed out that my two page table of content may not be as finished as I thought. The lines on each side of the page align with each other, but that may be the biggest issue. In a traditional magazine, The crest between pages will eat away a bit of the pages and lift them too. This combination will jagger the lines of the table of content, therefore it will take the readers a bit more trouble to associate with page goes with which story.
After many different variations, I untimely have to make my table of content on one page. Having my table of content on one page is a bit difficult for me. If I'm thinking about adding a description to each story, the one page will definitely be overcrowded! Yet that isn't my major problem. Some of the titles are too long, hence the page number won't fit.
In trying to find a suitable way to create my table of content, the problem of what will replace the other page of the magazine presented himself. Of course the only answer is an ad, but that just adds to the things I must complete, and I am already lagging behind.
As mentioned before, I was ready to complete one ad (which I have) but to complete two!? Looking for a way not make another ad, I opted to making the "two-page story" into a four pages. By doing so, there is no need for an advertisement. However, this does mean I have to write more, and since this is the number one thing I dread, it was a sacrifice I needed to do.
I hope that when writing about Iniya's experience in moving to the united states it will be easier as it is in my head.
