Dear bloggers....!
I must admit the first week seemed a little daunting but once I got foccused and made a plan going forwards, it all became much clearer and I felt calmer as a result. I remember during our first session, Helen mentioned about looking at our CVs and that the way in which we presented ourselves and our experiences may change. At first I didn't know what she meant but having reviewed my CV today; my whole approach and focus changed as did the choice of vocabulary! To be honest I felt quietly chuffed. From here I was able to see a clear link with my past and present and this in turn helped me design, in my head, ideas for my essays - just got to get them down on paper!
In terms of my learning and my understanding I need to find a space that is quiet, so that I can be totally in tune with my thoughts - it's a space that I'm not really comfortable with as I love listening to music, or when I see a picture or object my mind starts to create....rather than concentrate. Maybe there's a question here for reflection but not sure what it is. Any ideas?

Hi Jacqui
ReplyDeleteDo not worry, having attended this weeks lecture with COVID the realisation that this is happening has only just hit me! Yes it is daunting but we wouldn't be here if we couldn't do this. Having read your reflection I would say why don't you listen to music if it helps the creative juices, silence for me something I can't do so as I write there is always background noise. Look forward to reading more of your thought. Amy :)
I hope you are feeling better and have had plenty of rest. Thanks for the encouragement and now I'm going to turn up the music and see what happens!!
