Dream dream dream
I've been spending days looking at earrings, beads, making earrings, taking photos. I feel soo hardworking, except this is supposed to be a hobby, a sideline, though i don't think i'm making much to consider it a sideline, not something that's supposed to occupy my entire day. I've been contemplating if i should take up a gemology diploma. Jumps into totally different fields are nothing to me now, the only thing is money, money and yup money. Damn. Haven't started on my
1) 1500 word critique on a quasi-experiment
2) 2500 word statistics assignment
No data means no analysis means cannot start work. v convenient excuse eh, but it's group work!! Ahah!
3) Jocelyn Wales Seminar critique
ARGHHHHH, bad, bad, bad! To critique is to say good and bad. Since they're good enough to be able to speak for a JoWale seminar, this is gonna be an uphill task. Well at least there's the good part.
4) My ethics application for my thesis
I'm getting jittery over this, although i'm ahead of everyone in class, more or less.
5) Ethics Reflection Paper
Easy peasy. Although i suspect i'll end up getting crap grades with the crap i write.
Think i shall start tackling the 1st one, since that is relatively easy. Better go read and find my articles to critique. Finalise my ethics application, proofread, re-read, make sure it's good to go. Then we're meeting on tues to settle the data for assignment 2, then somewhere along the line i'll take 1hr to write a 600 word reflection paper. Then I'll do my JoWale seminar critique and stress and freak out and then do my assignment 2. Sounds very nice now, hopefully i get started nicely and everything is down to pat.
I think i should keep my beads for a while. It's been splayed all over my table for at least the past 3 weeks. But but but but but.. Haiz. Wonder if i changed to a gemology course would i still procrastinate. Haha, looking for excuses again. But it is a question i wonder about. Oh wait, i procrastinated to do up the FAQ page for the earring site, so.. damn. I wonder how much do gemologists earn and if there's a demand in singapore. Yes i am dreaming again.
