Words of wisdom

Top five tips I wish I’d known at the beginning of second year;

1.Get out more – go and experience thing, this would have helped me get inspiration sooner than I did. I should have gone on more walk or visited more museums and galleries.

2.Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you feel like you are struggling – I should have spoken to people about stress related issue much earlier rather than letting it get to the point where I felt like I wanted to quit.

3.Decide on doing something you really want to do – I should have thought about what I was doing more in terms of making so that I didn’t end up hating the road I was going down. I could have decided on a more interesting rout for me to go down and there for would of helped keep my interest and motivation throughout the project rather than it dropping due to the fact I wasn’t enjoying certain aspects.

4.Manage your time more efficiently – despite having the dairy to help with planning out week to week activities in class I constantly forgo to update or write things in it… this will be something I will try to make sure I do more of next term.

5.Have fun with your work – I need to stop stressing,  get really stressed over normally very small things, especially with work, whether its time or things just nor working the way I expected them too. At the end of the day im ding a course I love so I need to take it seriously but at the same time have fun with it. If I continue to get overly stressed / take this way to seriously ill end up hating the course and definitely dropping out.
