Unit 5 Exhibition

We decided early on in the year that it would be a good idea to explore the possiblity of dispalying our work publicly. We secured a small space on Parnie St and dispalyed all our work for a number of days. Being quite dissapointed with the quaility of my work, i decided not to dispaly my finished project, but instead displayed what i had displayed for the first review of the project, which worked out quite well as it provided a backdrop for live music during the course of the launch night.

Results

No surprise, I failed! Was expecting it, and glad i did. Would have hated to have scraped a pass. At least now i have a chance to go back, figure out where it started going wrong, and make a fresh attempt for the resit.

Found out that a number of students from my unit also failed, which was quite a shock. I'd known for some time my project was behind schedule, but everybody else had quaility work on the walls.

External examination

External examiners were in today to look at a selection of the years work. I was quite worried because my name wasn't on the list to be seen. I was hoping i'd get an oppertunity to speak to them about my work. I've had a few proplems this year but i feel i have learned alot from those mistakes. It could have also been a chance to make myself feel better, might sound a bit lame, but i've been so dedicated this year, maybe too dedicated? I've yet to feel good about what i've done, despite the work thats been put in the end product always seems substanderd.

I've realised my main issue is time management. I worked every hour i could for the last year, i took little time to enjoy myself, despite how long i'd sit working i only actually do a couple of hours. Pulling everything together in the last 3 weeks really proved to me that i can work quickly, that i don't need to sit for day on end. sffrewfaew

Feedback

Got my feedback today, not looking good at all. Really worried about what i'm going to do. I don't think i wan to waste time doing a resit, i don't think i'll learn much from making a bad project look nicer for 40%, but i don't know if i can resit the year, or the project next year? I'll have to wait and see.
