The past few weeks have been interesting ones. Several weeks ago, I carried out my presentation over a video I recorded. I found this quite difficult as I didn’t feel as though I could connect as much with my audience as I would have if I had been doing it in person. Even though I struggled in this aspect of the presentation, I did feel that the ability to rerecord as a positive. This made me feel slightly calmer when recording it, as I knew that if I made a mistake I could go back and fix it, which I wouldn’t have been able to do if it was in person. As I got the results of this presentation back today, it has made me feel proud of what I’ve been able to accomplish under the current circumstances.
I will be starting the report in the next few days, as I am currently finishing off an essay for a different module. I am excited to write this report as it will be good to reflect back on my experience as a whole, plus learn more about the field through academic literature.
I am currently at home with my family, who have moved my Nana into the house so she isn’t lonely during the isolation period. While my parents have been working during the day, my Nana has been helping me with university work and keeping my mind occupied. As this report is my final deadline to hand in, I will have more time to spend with my family and I am looking forward to it.
This is stressful and uncertain time, and knowing I have essays and reports to complete has kept me sane. I am nervous for what my mental health will be like when I have nothing to focus on, but I am sure with the help of my family and friends I will be fine.
