So for Digicomms we have to create a website of sorts, something like a personal-professional blog. Don't ask me how that works, I'm still trying to figure that out myself because I've asked the tutor what exactly he's looking for and he can't give me a straight answer.
How do you combine both personal and professional? The topic I'm choosing to focus on for my blog is one that's sensitive to say the least, and might be considered taboo for some. It's stupid of me to choose something that I can already tell has a pretty high potential of becoming a major pain in the ass, but the thing about me is that I can never do something without feeling some sort of connection to it. I've tried many times, trust me - if I don't feel a connection to the topic I really can't do it.
I'm not proud of it because I know it's highly unprofessional, but there you go.
But before I can get to posting about said sensitive topic on my WP (yes, it's on WP, or at least a version of it that the school's hosting because they want to avoid plagiarism but the truth is that all it really does is inconvenience us because it's not nearly as idiot-proof as they try to make it), I have to do a number of other things... Like create my CV on the blog.
Which is troublesome.
And after doing all that, I've got to design the blog - something which I'm not very good at (I mean, look at this blog - I barely put anything other than words up here and the design has barely changed since I first started it up in secondary school). Still, it'll be interesting to come up with something. Visualise how it's going to look like, Nat. You'll get there.
In slightly unrelated news, my mum found out about my scars last Saturday. Ouch. It was a lot more anticlimactic than I expected, and she was a lot calmer than I expected too, though I'm certainly grateful for it. No blowups, no tears, no shouting. Thank god.
I'm not sure what to write about at the moment, really. I've got a fic on the way because someone (read: pingu) requested it, but that's looking more like a ficlet instead, what with how it seems more like a scene instead of a well-rounded story. Can't wait to finish that when I can - I've got a skeleton of sorts in my head now - but that's really going to have to wait for when I'm done with my assignments.
Oh, and I have to figure out how to shoot and edit a short video. Something about myself... WHAT DO I SAY MY LIFE IS SO BORING DAMMIT.
I have a brief idea for the video, but piecing it together is going to be a real pain. That and the fact that a decent video editor for windows seems difficult to find.
Fuck it I'm annoyed now, but listening to this helps to get some of my thoughts in better order at least.
