What I think about this years assignments

From hearing and reading what this module entails I'm quite excited about it. Don't get me wrong reading and writing are not my strong points but I have always liked the thought of having a blog so when Shaun said we are to write a blog I was super happy to get going.

The one thing that stuck out for me is the extra credit. We have never experience anything like this yet in college but it also means if don't get around to doing one task it's not to worry as we can make up the marks somewhere else. I also think it will give me more reason to do more college work to get my grades up especially if I think something hasn't gone in a previous task.

The one thing I am worried about is giving other people feedback. I'm not great with a way of words so I would hate to give someone feedback and for them to take it the wrong way and be annoyed at me especially if its people who I don't interact with in class. Another thing is the readings, because I'm dyslexic it takes me longer to read something as the words become jumbled and I loose my train of thought I than have to reread the paragraph all over again. It just has me worried that it will take me way to long to get work done.

I am excited about this module I think it's going to challenging but fun!

Reading 5 - Conducting & writing my analysis!

Hey guys, For the readings this week I am starting to write my analysis. After looking through my matrix and the significance of each of them I will be writing about the similarities of each of the articles that I think will be important to use. I have be looking at my sub topics in more depth and looking for more relevant information that can be used to write my chapters. This weeks reading has taken a bit longer then it should as I think its important that I fully understand what I am looking at and what I am using to conduct my analysis. What I have learnt from narrowing things done is that a lot of articles I have read and saved onto my computer are all repeating the information which I need, this means to me anyway that them documents are essential for my analysis. (Update) After speaking to Shaun this morning, I am starting to feel more confident in my topic, I am aware that I need to work more on my matrix for my second topic which I am ...

Introduction to me being me!

I never know how to write about myself. I always feel so embarrassed and I don't know why😅 Like last year when Margret asked us to do a video about ourselves, I wanted to cry as I never know what to say about myself without sounding big headed! So here comes the cringe fest.... My name is Elizabeth, I am 23 years old and I was born and bred in Maynooth. It is a nice a place but now its just full of college students who are taking over (I know i'm a college student but these people are from the country you know)😂. I still live at home with my mum and recently my boyfriend Dan has moved in with us as well. I have a sister Meaghan who is getting married next year to her fiancee Lesley. In the last couple of years we have also gotten in contact with my half sister, so our family just keeps on growing which is great. We are a very close family and I wouldn't have it any other way. I am very lucky to have such amazing people to be there for me ...

My First Game Brainstorm.

https://www.123rf.com/photo_83383233_close-up-of-notepad-with-creative-brainstorm-sketch-and-colorful-pencils-brainstorming-concept.html Hi Guys, Welcome back to my blog, in today's blog post I will be telling you guys about my ideas for my video game. When I think about making a game I think it needs to be a game that everyone will enjoy. After having a look around the internet I know have a good idea of what my four possible games could be. Game 1: For my first game I would like it to be similar to The Sims 4. The Sim was first released back in 2000. It has many different versions of the game which has made this game the "best selling video game series of all time". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sims . I have always like the idea of being able to build your own imaginary life on a video game, from personalizing your characters, to building your own houses/business, to earning money, to having relationships/friendships within this video world. I would ...
