When I started this course I thought I was confident, but it became apparent that academically I was not. At some points I even thought that maybe I wouldn’t be able to cope with the course, and I thought that I had illusions of grandeur to think that I would ever be able to get to university. However, here I am 9 months later, motivated and desperate to get into University. I have a thirst for knowledge and the confidence in myself to pursue a master’s degree. I first applied for the BA in Religious Studies, however, since then I have changed my mind and I changed the course to the MA Religious Studies, as I feel it is something I can accomplish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All of the lecturers have been great. They have been very supportive and caring. Alicia has been especially good for me as, to be honest, I have always hated Languages and she has made learning Spanish bearable and even enjoyable. Her teaching style is very good, as she makes you feel relaxed and she always concentrates on the positive points.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don’t know how the course could improve. I thought the course has been fantastic in comparison to the college I went to when I was eighteen. The college I went to then had literally no facilities and we spent the year in a hut! I was so excited when I seen the fancy computerised boards used in the rooms. However, in saying that, too much technology can be a bad thing as, especially in History this tended to interfere with class work as sometimes the computer didn’t work properly. Moreover, when this happened and we wanted to watch a documentary we would have to get the TV and the videos or DVD’s were not always up to par, which was a hindrance.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think my performance throughout the year has been quite good. I have handed in my work in time and I have completed it to the best of my ability. I could have done far better in Spanish, and I would have learned more if I stuck to my targets on my blog more thoroughly. Planning study time is imperative and evaluating how much you have learned is also, this may have been too little too late. However, the positive side to this is that I now know how important it is, and I will endeavour to do this when I start university.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Throughout the course I have learned that I am capable of going to University and completing the course. With more commitment and more motivation I feel that I could have done a lot better in the course and I am not going to fall into the trap of being idle at times again. I have also learned that I d get along with most people and that education is really important.

I am going to spend a couple of hours on that essay to night to at least get my first draft finished. The I need to concentrate on my compartitive Essay between the 'Heart Of Darkness' and ' The love song by Alfred Prufrock'. I think thats all I need to do for Lit. I am going to spend a couple of hours on Wednesday on the comparative essay and hopefully I will have most of it dont for next week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spanish&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I HAVE ALOT TO DO FOR SPANISH!

I am planning to do that today and I have chosen the topics for all of my talks and I am also made a start on my smart targets for Jordi. I have disapoionted myself as I have only did a miniscule amount of Maths.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;History&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have yet to get a question for my investagation. I woulf like to do something about religion, something that I do not know much about so I can have the oppertunitie to learn something new. I will speak to Evan about this on Friday as I have been struggling to come up with a question.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;English&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I just need to get the Susan Greenfield thing done today. Then I just need to concentrate on my "introduction" talk which I have chosen to do on how to make "Murga" a middle eastern dish(This will get dont on Tuesday. It should only take me about half an hour). It should be easy as  I know how to make it and I have grown more confident in talking in front of the class. Me, lee and Norman are doing a group dicussion on the army/army cadets and our experiences and reasons why people may want to join the army.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lit&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to read the "heart of darkness" by tommorrow and I am sooo behind. I need to finish that by tonight and I am only on page 25. The good thing is, is that I think ia m actually getting interested in the book now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spanish &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I didnt stick to any of the Spanish targets I gave myself last week. I did go over swe vocabulary and I decided what I was going talk about, that was only for an hour yesterday. So my target for this week is. On Tuesday and Wednesday I hope to study for an hour each night and if i do more this will be a bonus. I have to set myself an acheivable target otherwise I will do nothing at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Maths &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I am going to do maths for 45 mins each night.

I did read some of it but I am finding it hard to motivate myself to read it as I find it dull.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was ill last week so I didnt do any studying. I do have a desk in my room but i didnt use it as I used to table in the living room. But last night I cleared outt the desk and orgainised my work and made a timetable. Having my own wee area has made me look forward to getting home tonight and studying. I still havent completed the maths yet as I have been avoiding is asd I do find it very difficult, maths is very scary to me. I dont think there is any way of making it easier for me to do.

Started doing past tense. So I really need to learn conjegations off by heart, including the present tense! Last time I wa sin Spaniosh I got a grammer book so I would like to do at least 4 exercises this week and know spend 30 minutes per night to get the conjegations into my head!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;History&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We did our first exam in History on Friday. The night before I spent just less than 3 hours studying and I felt really confident on the day of the exam. I think I have passed, so now I am just lookin forward to the next topics. Which is all about Europe and we are going way back to the Greeks and the Romans. Interesting stuff :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Litreture&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;More poetry. I need to watch a video on youtube for my homework. Happy days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Study Skills&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week we had a last minute talk to do in the class. I was actually quite proud of myself. I was a bit nervous but I fell that I coped well with it. I have seen a huge difference in my level of confidence since starting the course. I felt more nervous doing the investagating europe talk, but I feel I will be better in futre presentaions. It was really benificial watching other people doing their talks as I could see there strengths and weaknesses and I made mental notes for myself. As to what to do and not to do.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;English&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This week I have to finish my "Age Of Genius" assessment. I will spend 2 hours doing this on Wednesday. Also the last time we were in English we watched Dragons Den. Result. And then we picked an object that we "invented" mines was a mop. We had to go into the front of the class and sell it. It was alot of fun. Again, I felt apprehensive about going first but I did feel confident doing it. And I came second after the fantastic Andy Pandy.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/363480000049953570-4439189578720349594?l=tootsyanna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/feeds/4439189578720349594/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2010/02/blog.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/4439189578720349594'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/4439189578720349594'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2010/02/blog.html' title='Blog'/><author><name>no way</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363480000049953570.post-4431145723958302545</id><published>2010-01-18T04:02:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-01-18T04:16:20.844-08:00</updated><title type='text'>...</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;History&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have got back on track as I have handed in my History Essay and I have another one to hand in on Friday about the labour goverment.

I plan to set aside an hour a night to study for maths and I am going to get my husband to help me with it so I can at least do the 3rd assessment on Friday . I have emailed John regarding this and hopefully I can speak to him and arrange time to get these assessments finished.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Spanish&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have neglected my spanish studies for the past little while but I have been passing assessments first time which I am quite proud of. At the moment my priority is getting my maths finished.

I have improved in my essay writing as we do allot of essays in History. I am able to plan my essays therefore the structure of them are far better, and English has helped me to improve my grammar. I have also realised that time management is imperative as I did leave a few things to the last minute whilst doing my investagating Europe project and my presentation. Although I handed everything in on time I do feel that with better time management I could have produced a better quality of work.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This term I plan to listen to Spanish tutorials that I have on my mp3 player to familiarise myself more with pronunciation. I will be able to do this whilst travelling back and forth from college.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really need to spend as much time as possible to do maths as I am behind with it and I think there is only about a week left in the course so I really need to motivate myself to go to the drop in centre and I need to designate time to do the booklets in the evenings. I will need to do at least an hour a night to complete the course on time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Other than that everything thing seems to be running smoothly although I am a little bit behind in history as I haven’t yet finished  my last essay and I must do an essay for literature that I haven’t done yet either. I am going to plan my literature essay to night and hope fully I will be able to finish it.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/363480000049953570-5597702734461079331?l=tootsyanna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/feeds/5597702734461079331/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-term.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/5597702734461079331'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/5597702734461079331'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2010/01/new-term.html' title='New Term'/><author><name>no way</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363480000049953570.post-3657935663696828878</id><published>2009-11-23T04:43:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-23T04:55:55.185-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Running out of things to put in the title</title><content type='html'>No blog last week as the net was down at the SAC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So far Im a tiny bit away from finishing my Investigating Europe, I ony have a bit of the conflict to do and my intro and conclusion but it shouldnt take me too long, I was so pleased with myself that I actually sat down and spent a few hours doing it.

I am on the path of self discovery. Today we had a lesson with Dieca about 'mind set' and I found it unbelieveably helpfull, I recognise now why I'm not motivated and why I give up easily. I have a fixed mind set, which is holding me back. You can see from my blog that I dont really set realistic targets and everything is a bit all over the place and I try to neglect the things that I dont think I will be good at or don't particulary like because i think "ill never pass it anyway" or I fell like its not my fortay so I will just concentrate on what I think I am good at. This can change, I dont need to be good at the things I do, I can struggle as you need to stuggle in order to progress, and thats ok, I am not 'thick' or 'stupid' I just lack motivation in areas which can actually be improved.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week the only I didnt do anything that I wrote on my blog, The only thing I nearly done was instead of using colored pens I just used sympols boxes and arrows on my notes but the coloured pens would have been more benificial as it would have been more eye catching and I would take things in easier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;History - I need to read the handouts that I was givin and refresh my memory on the suffragetes! I just need to spend about and hour doing this on Thursday as the information is in my brain somewhaere, I just need to access it again.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lit - Go over things likt onomatopia and enjungmong's (as you can clearly see I cant even spell them and its something that I will learn to do for next week so in my next blog I can say, Yeay I did it)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Spanish - go over connecting words and read over the basics, go over the routine and family as I am a bit lost with that.  By spending 30 minutes per night and I need to stick to it as I can study at the weekend I'll be best doing this later at night as it is quiet. and I need to make sure the house is tidy and I have organised everything, otherwise I'll just be trying to study thinking 'I need to hang that washin up' no distractions!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Investegating Europe - I have got a good grasp of the subject now and I know what I want to write about so I need to make a more in depth plan and make a start on the actual project as just doing the front page at this stage is not good enough. I want to have the conflict, a bit on the history and the basic believes of Islam done(first draft). I will go to Joes on Wednesday and be honest on what I have done so far and show him my plan and get some feedback on what he things about it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;English - I am finding English ok at the moment and I am on track I just need to finish the assesment on Calvanism which will only take me about an hour, and I can do that on Wednesday night.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Maths - I need to work on the outcome one and go over percentages and significant numbers and I have to go over 2 questions for my first assessment. I can work on my outcome 2 on thursday night so things are fresh in my head for the Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have alot to do this week, I do have the time so no excuses. I wont be able to do much on Sat and Sun coz Im going to London, yeay!!! But I need to take this blog more seriously, hopefully next week I will be saying, yes I have did quite alot of my project and I feel more comfertable and confident with Spanish.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Roll on next week.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/363480000049953570-9089528045876251016?l=tootsyanna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/feeds/9089528045876251016/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/11/ooo-arr-voonabar.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/9089528045876251016'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/9089528045876251016'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/11/ooo-arr-voonabar.html' title='Ooo arr Voondabar'/><author><name>no way</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363480000049953570.post-3942878578937907196</id><published>2009-11-08T16:35:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-11-08T16:49:52.517-08:00</updated><title type='text'>hey!</title><content type='html'>Hi there,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;another week has gone past and I have been neglecting my studies again! Time to get back on track. I haven't really done much about the investagating Europe project apart from watching a few documentarys, taking notes and just trying to understand alot of things. I have spent most of my time investagating the subject to make sure I understand it ...this week Im am going to put pen to paper and plan excactly what I am going to put in my project. Its quite hard to see what is relevent and what is not but I will just have to do an amazing plan :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;With Dieca we did the wee test that Jordy sent us to see how we learn I got the following results:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:180%;color:#666699;"&gt;The VARK Questionnaire Results&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    &lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Your scores were:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Visual: 2&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Aural: 11&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Read/Write: 5&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size:85%;"&gt;Kinesthetic: 10&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;I know that I learn best when im listening and taking notes then talking about the subject as if I know what im talking about. I do that alot, with a serious face.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im going to start organising my notes better and using coloured pens(basicly use more techniques for studying) . This week I will be making a good start on my Investagating Europe," Islam in Bosnia and Herzegovina" I am going to write up a summary on the Bosnian War and the basic Islamic believes. I will have this done by Wednesday !!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I really have to get my act together with spanish, I have totally neglected it in the past wee while.  I am going to study spanish for 45 mins per night, just going on byki.com and talkspanish. and Iam going to look over notes, I need to go over the routines and connecting words mainly.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/363480000049953570-3942878578937907196?l=tootsyanna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/feeds/3942878578937907196/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/11/hey.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/3942878578937907196'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/3942878578937907196'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/11/hey.html' title='hey!'/><author><name>no way</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363480000049953570.post-4753317172471947646</id><published>2009-10-12T04:31:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-12T04:48:19.984-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Another week has past.</title><content type='html'>Well, I have studied alot more spanish this week, good times.

I have found out though I am more of a visual learner.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;English was good this week as we did a practice assessment in doin that I noticed that it takes me alot of time to understand the questions and it takes me a while to answer them but once I get started I'm fine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I wasn't able to attend college on Friday so I have to see what I need to catch up on in History and I need to do my Maths test in the drop in session on Wednesday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week I found out in Maths that I am quite capable of the work but I just need to have more confidence as I chose not to do the test and do more revision sheets when I could have sat the test and I would have past it, at least thats what John said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Im still loving literature I do have to go over things like whaty a metaphor is, or a simile is etc s I can identify them at a first glance.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/363480000049953570-4753317172471947646?l=tootsyanna.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/feeds/4753317172471947646/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/10/another-week-has-past.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/4753317172471947646'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/363480000049953570/posts/default/4753317172471947646'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://tootsyanna.blogspot.com/2009/10/another-week-has-past.html' title='Another week has past.'/><author><name>no way</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-363480000049953570.post-950952946779837430</id><published>2009-10-05T04:06:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-10-05T04:23:49.397-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Planning</title><content type='html'>Well, last week was pretty good my opinions haven't changed.

I am really enjoying the classes and I've been keeping up with homework.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have been finding the Spanish very hard and I really need to study in my own time a lot more and plan how I'm going to do that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My favourite subjects at the moment are English Literature and History, I have always loved History but I didn’t expect that I would like Literature but I have enjoyed it very much and I have even started reading at my own leisure. Reading is something that I would never do unless I had someone very scary to force me and motivate me as I have the "concentration span of a Nat" words of my very lovely English teacher (NOT).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The longer I am on the course the happier I am that I made the right decision. I knew it opened many doors, I just didn't realise how many. My confidence is growing slowly but surely as I feel that I am getting closer to making my decision on which course to apply for at University, hopefully getting offers and actually doing it!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, I’m still feeling optimistic at the moment, I would be even more optimistic if I got my act together and studied more Spanish at home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note to self:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* STUDY MORE AT HOME AND STOP BEING DISTRACTED AND LAZY!!
