I was completely taken aback today when I discovered that the tutorials were feedback for our presentations, and thrilled to discover that I had been given positive comments, and a 2:1 grade. I'm so pleased. I really wasn't expecting that. Presentations are so stressful but although I am shaking inside, I seem to have the ability to appear confident! Isn't it strange how that happens, but good for my self esteem!
As for the External Project, my folder hardly has anything in it and so my feedback reflected that. I need to enter competitions, find some voluntary work, exhibit somewhere other than with our Group be(longing), and contact various people about opportunities. I have contacted Origin Co - Operative to apply for a place with them, but have not heard back from them yet. There is also a place in Haverfordwest called The Spirit of Enterprise whom I intend to visit in the next week or so when I have time. They help people start businesses and may be able to give me some contacts for my work. Another avenue I could try would be to contact magazines who may be interested in my style of work. I need to research this, find a list of magazines who cover landscape and other environmental, cultural or even gardening issues and stories. It is something to think about. I need to time manage my work so that I can do all the things I need to do. There is so much work to do for Uni now but I have to stay motivated and get it done.
