THLOG 6 I THINK

To be quite honest, this week was very, very weird. It mostly felt really stressful because of WP2, which I messed up on pretty badly. At first I thought I did a good job, but then I started to feel bad about it. At this point I am just stressed out about it again. The peer reviews definitely helped, but for some reason I just didn't think it would be necessary to refer to the reader (stupid, I know). It was not explicitly stated on the instructions but I should have known better than to do whatever I wanted. I just wanted to give the paper more of my own voice and all of the information we had to include made it very difficult and overwhelming. At this point I am just hoping that the rest of the content of my paper will help me out a little bit. Other than that this week was also pretty interesting. We talked about our group presentations white a bit on Monday, but I still have no idea what is going on and what the assignment even really is. I do not know what is being asked of us other than the whole "make the presentation engaging" part. We also talked about WP3, which is still confusing even after reading the assignment several times. There are so many options and so many ways to go about those options that even though it sounds interesting, it also sounds extremely overwhelming. The creativity factor of WP3 is putting a lot of pressure on me, especially since I feel like I have go think extremely out of the box. Hopefully the more we talk about it, the better I will understand the assignment. The best part of this week was the online class. It was sort of stressful too, but it went better than expected. The chat was definitely one of the best parts. It seemed like it had way less boundaries than talking in class, so everyone was being random and using curse words (which is always a good time). The discussions were fun but the time constraints made it a little difficult to say everything I wanted/needed to say. I tried my best but at times it really was stressful. Other than that it was pretty refreshing to be in a new setting. It's good to change things up!
