Will I ever not be in school??!? As I take on my sixth class of 12 in my master's program, I find myself feeling less than motivated and positive. Why don't I have the glass half full attitude? I'm almost half way done (I try to tell myself). Instead, I feel like how am I ONLY half way done?? I'm 26 and I have been a student my whole life with no more than a few months off. Anyone else feeling overwhelmed or having a hard time seeing the light at the end of the tunnel?
On a positive note, so far I like this class a lot more than the last class I took in the MMC program. Especially after looking through the course objectives and syllabus, I feel this class will match interests and abilities much more than the last class I took did. I find myself more motivated I read through the final projects and course objectives.
I also find the all the little extras in this course really stimulating, like the video overviews and the thoughts/images for the week.
I think making the commercial will be fun, but I am also a little concerned about the amount of time it will take.
I love that the final paper is completed in milestones. I feel like those kinds of deadlines are much truer to a real world work environment. I'm worried about choosing a topic for the final paper and final commercial. Because of that, I will start to consider topics now and try to avoid the panic at the last minute (as I sometimes do with final papers/projects).
Well, onward I go. I feel like Nemo in Finding Nemo sometimes...just keep swimming, just keep swimming...
