:( Will the portfolio ever be done?

 This pandemic has really messed up my plans for completing this portfolio properly, I am currently in my final year and still... the portfolio is not done... I mean it is done but I am.....IDK I feel so lost. My training officer is not replying back to the one email I sent him with my final evidence and I think I been booked for the verification but apparently there is a waiting list of 70 people on there?! and I am supposed to produce a presentation for my IBMS verification which I have not started... as university work has taken over my life.
