Week 23rd novemeber

This week i have been concentrating on getting well, i had an operation on tuesday and it went really well just have to rest. So i am writing my research and planning proposal on the sofa.

I Came home to be waited on and spoiled by my family and boyfriend, had 12 beautiful red roses, that's love. :-)

My proposals coming on well...just having trouble with keeping the word count down and not babbling on too much about the same thing. i have so many books i intend to read over christmas that will help the ball rolling for the next two terms.

At the moment i have been reading Freud's ' The Interpretation of Dreams' which i surprisingly have found easy to read. I have noticed a difference that i am finding the language easier to understand, it helps persevering.

I have been watching films that Fiona my tutor recommended too....all have inspired me but found watching some of them very frustrating. I've learned you have to be quite patient with the films Fiona recommends. ;-)

Brown Bunny directed by Vincent Gallo, for instance probably has about 30minutes of the main protagonist (Vincent Gallo) driving with music, but i understood why when i looked deeper into it.

I also watched Breaking the Waves, Ma Vie en Rose which has really inspired my Desire project, about merging the Gender Binary.

Also watched a good film called My summer of love which i originally got so i could look at the lighting for Goldwell project, coming of age, but has inspired me more for my final major project.

So my week on the sofa has been very productive.... i have finished my proposal and will be submitting it tomorrow and have watched many inspiring films! I have started to relax into the term and have started to enjoy the challenge.
