Often it’s like a little bit of a stress point so that we can move on. Because a lot of the time because of our job we are under that time pressure, so its kind of good to have those moments, to just get it out – and then we move on.” Emily: “yeah we’re really lucky, it’s not roses all the time, but at least we have the ability to be able to get the job done, cause at the end of the day our main goal is create something” 4/4
