I finally received a notification that my application for my Situated Creative Practice Project was successful!  I didn’t get an email like I was expecting but yesterday evening I went onto the application website and there was a notification that I had been successful in my application. Though I don’t have any more information on the project than before, I’m relieved that I’m part of a project and excited because I was given my first preference. Yahoo!

It’s Orientation Week for my university this coming Monday, and as I work with the uni, my week is going to be busier than it has been. The new semester is blooming and I’m all for it. Hopefully, I’ll be saying the same thing about the second semester and then graduating at the end of the year, haha. Bring on the books, coffee and assessment tasks. The only thing I have to resist is the urge to buy new stationary equipment. Argh, but I want the new books and highlights and sticky notes and unnecessary stocks of tape and staples!

Before my busy week begins, I have my first Dungeons and Dragons (with me being the Dungeon Master) session in a while. Hopefully, that doesn’t tire me out before the week begins. Updates about that will find there way onto my other blog (you can find info about that here: I Started a DND Campaign). Let’s see if I can juggle that as well as being a third-year student… oh dear… I’m a third-year now. *deep breath*

I must admit that I have not been as productive these past two days as I should have, instead I’ve been focused on trying to prepare for the DND session coming up (knowing in the back of my head that it’s going to be a mess anyway). I’m hoping to make up any targets/goals during the remainder of the weekend so I’m not instantly falling off this little productive snowball I just got rolling. The plan is to write for the remainder of the day and well into the night, dedicating tomorrow morning to DND prep again but focusing on my writing again in the afternoon once the session is over. It’s a pain sitting at my desk though because the weather has gone back to being hot and I share the fan with my partner. I feel like I’m covered in a perma-grime that I can’t get off because of how much I’m sweating by just sitting here. I also have eczema that flares in these sudden changes in the weather and so I’m probably a lot more uncomfortable than if I didn’t have to worry about it.

Well, that’s about it, just wanted to give a quick update about getting my application approved and so I don’t have to worry about how I’m going to be able to pay rent. I’ll be posting my Writing Reflection tomorrow and so we’ll see just how much I managed to get done this week.

Ta!
