Am I blocked?

No I am not blocked.

What I did

I investigated different approaches to organizing our data by looking at the Django model documentation. This was #21. Additionally, I was the EM this week. I organized a team meeting over Google Hangouts to get feedback about this week and talk about our plan for next week. Also, I wrote our first Team Retrospective.

What I plan to do next week

Next week, I will be initializing our codebase. This will involve creating a new Django project and pushing it to our repository (by pushing to my branch and having my pull request merged.)
