I’ve made slow progress in writing during the week.
My objectives are to revise the findings chapter, and add a thematic map of my interview analysis. I never imagined that I would be revising this one chapter throughout the whole year!
I’ve understood how important it is to make perfect logical sense between the analytical tools and findings. Still, I never expected that one single chapter would be revised so many times.
Inspiring quotes
They say that things never work out as you expect.
My supervisor says that “everything happens on time”.
I believe that a new perspective or an idea to solve a problem naturally comes to me when immersing myself in one moment at a time – focused. While watching Dragons’ Den, I jot down good quotes from the dragons sometimes. The dragons’ pieces of advice have lots of commonalities, and it seems like I am attracted to the same message. “Focus. Concentrate on your work. Become the expert of it.”
Whatever I read or watch, these sort of messages always get caught in the fine mesh of my conscious and tell me that I must carry on with my studies.
Christmas plans
Luca and I have some exciting plans for Christmas. I will fly to Japan to spend a week with my family in the middle of December. After that, I’ll return to the UK, and then we will fly to Germany to spend Christmas with his family. I am very excited to have lots of family time over the Christmas season and to see all of them for the first time in six months.
Lunch at Benedicts
On Saturday, we had a lovely lunch at our absolute favourite restaurant, Benedicts. The three-course meals were fantastic, and the attention to detail in the charming presentation was superb as always. We loved the relaxing and welcoming atmosphere, the chef’s trifle for dessert. After lunch, we did some shopping for tea and Luca’s winter coat.
