Journey through uni

 Hello,  Not much to post about because I haven’t really made any tangible progress but hopefully that will change after my meeting this Friday.  I’ve tried to organise and reduce my ideas to a few main questions that all sit within my topic but focus on different details. At the moment I have 4 questions to choose from and work my research from.  I’ve made a list of books and links that feel related to my topic HOWEVER I must admit there’s not as many academic sources related to my topic as I had anticipated,,, I’m hoping this doesn’t become a roadblock. I am passionate about the direction I’m going in and I’m working to find enough sources to aid my project as I really don’t want to change it. Let’s see what happens I guess.  Until next time  T,D

To make even grumpy adults excited and happy through dressing up as mickey mouse and dancing on a parade float reminds me of why i do what i do - i want to be a part...

 Hi,  So we finished module one and got our grades. As I am a total perfectionist I’m not as happy as I wanted to be with my grade but I was informed that I did very well and I’m too hard on myself so I’m trying out into perspective my view of myself and not hold myself at an unattainable standard.  So now onto module two. The reading of the module handbook is well underway but I can’t say it’s making me feel any more in the know yet; to put it simply I feel confused and overwhelmed with what I have to achieve in the next month or so… but we just have to take it one day at a time I guess.  To prevent myself from getting too worried I decided to focus on what i can do right now - I made a huge mind map of ideas for topics to develop further and how they connect with each other. I tried to differentiate between ‘bigger picture’ topics and the more individual ones. I like the ideas I’m forming but nervous that when it comes to fitting them in with what’s needed to pass ...
