Growth Mindset -

Hi Guys,

Like I said in my previous blog I'm doing some of the extra credit blogs today. 

This blog is about Growth Mindset, I haven't done one of these blogs on this topic since the 1st week so its nice to recap every once and a while 😀

Reading the different links and thinking about it to myself, since school I was so focused on my leaving cert and getting into college I forgot about how I actually felt, how I was going to deal with this huge change in my life starting college, in September 2015 going into college was the scariest thing to face on my own, I was young and not very mature and I didn't have the right mindset to do something I have never done before and unfortunately I think that's why I ended up dropping out of that course. 

Over the years from working full time I was also so focused on doing my job that once again I forgot about the impact is was having on my mind so when I began this course trying to juggle a job and college was so hard that I ended up actually quitting my job due to stress. 

So what I am trying to say here is no matter where you are in your life its so important to take time and actually give your head a break, a break from thinking, a break from stressing, a break from running in a million circles. 

We need to look after ourselves as we are the only ones that can control what our minds are going through.

Hope you enjoyed reading my blog post.

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 ...

Unity 6

Hi Guys, Welcome back to my blog, for today I will be talking about a new set of unity tutorials which are extremely long!! I really did enjoy these tutorials as it was a new set of them so more to learn, I know I keep saying this but this semesters unity is so much better then last semester I really really like them! Anyway lets talk about unity! I found these sets of tutorials very easy which is a good thing as it means I am getting the hang of things!  We started by adding a background and picking our character, we then began to add some code for the player to control the character.  (screenshot of my code) (Screenshot of character jumping)  We then added an obstacle for the character to jump over. I found by following the tutorials the code is getting easier. Overall I am really happy with my progress on unity! Anyway until next week -Elizabeth

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 ...
