I Can See the Light

As the course nears its end, I find myself in more turmoil than ever before. I believe I have stated this in one of my previous posts; I am horrible at choosing a topic to write a paper on. I have gone back and forth with a number of ideas. I think I have changed it with each milestone that has come due and once again, I’m back to square one. I am hoping that this time I have found something that I can stick with, but I’m not exactly sure if it relates to or covers the basis of what the paper is supposed to. Unfortunately, I’m out of time and I have one week to have a rough draft submitted and the final draft is due the following week. I’m disappointed mostly with myself because I’m usually very good at managing my time, but this situation has definitely gotten the best of me.

My digital story project is pretty much complete. I’m still toying with some of the audio. My one fear is that the story isn’t very interesting to the people who view it. I’m afraid that they might not get the full understanding of what it was I was doing and why I was doing it. I have had some setbacks with the project because of the limitations of the software we had to use, but hopefully, I get the message across. I have never done anything even remotely close to this so I will say that it has been a very good learning experience.

All in all, I have to admit that I’m somewhat relieved the course is nearing its end because I’m just about burnt out. It's been a good experience, but between school, work, and family it has been non-stop for the last 15 months and I think I’m ready for at least a small break. Not to mention, that I have also been taking a number of training courses at work that add to the workload. It’s been an interesting ride so far and I only hope that it ends well. I shall know soon enough.
