Sure, the weekend officially starts only after tomorrow, but since I'm done with my lectures for the first week of the semester my weekend has already started. Of course, it can not be completely used by just hanging about and taking it easy. Instead, I'm actually planning on being productive. Hopefully with a few things.
The most important goal is to get along with the IS. I've got a literary review and a methodology to conquer during the next couple of weeks. Fortunately, I already have the basis for my lit review, but I have to go through it and all the material I used for it and then write the whole thing again. But at least I have somewhere to start from. The methodology part is a completely different story, but I suppose I simply need to get started and build it through trial and error. Who knows, I might even strike gold at the first try - it's not impossible, and I like being optimistic.
The other things I'm hoping to get further along with are of course my personal projects. As a way to take a break from Uni work for a little while, I'm planning on finally watching The King's Speech. That should take my mind of work for a little while, let me relax and progress with the 250-project. It will also get me closer to writing the first review for REEL Time as well.
REEL Time should also be getting more material some time soon. I already know a couple of stories I simply need to do a bit more research on and then write them into coherent news pieces / articles. Today, one idea actually started as simply a topic for a short news story, but it has now developed into an idea for a longer article. Of course, it also means that it will take a lot more research and a couple of films to watch to accomplish what I currently have in mind. Still, I'm going to give it some time during the next few days.
If all goes well I'll be able to be productive by keeping my motivation going by doing each of these three things in turns. At least, this plan goves me a chance of actually doing something productive even while I'm taking a break from Uni work. I'm happy with the plan, now I need to make sure I can actually pull it off.
