The Wimborne Town Crier - Self Directed Project

A very warm hello to my friends, followers and blog observers...This blog is to record, showcase, and share my work and learning processes throughout my 'Self Directed Project'. For this project I have been asked by Chris Brown the Wimborne Town Crier if I can realise an 18th Century design which will become his new crying costume as of June 2010. I will be sharing all my triumphs and challenges a long the way and self reflecting/evaluating as I go. Please view my attached learning agreement for more information on the project and what it is I aspire to achieve.

Week 4 Review - EASTER BREAK

Right so, so far the Easter break has been far from relaxing and enjoyable. I finished my first course of antibiotics on Wednesday night and was feeling much better. I even managed to get out of the house on Thursday and managed to put my toile together in the evening. I was called to work at the shop (Clarks) where I have been an employee for 5 years now yesterday morning. I was more than happy to say yes as I've been practically bed bound for well over a week now. But....I woke up yesterday morning with a very swollen throat and was rushed to morning surgery to be checked out. I've now had a double dose of antibiotics prescribed to me and walked away with a very attractive waterproof plaster on my right arm, (protecting the minute wound from a blood test) and also a soon-to-be-confirmed diagnosis for Glandular Fever. So not only did I manage to contract Tonsilitus and get rid of it, but I also managed to allow it to return ten times worse!! So this now means my work placement has been canceled (doctor's orders) and I'm bed bound yet again! So I don't even know if I'll be making it back to uni on time for the start of term now. However I am more than able to use my laptop for further researching while I suffer (cue the violins) and I'm in touch with Chris Brown via text and e-mail (not phone as I have no voice) if there are any questions I may have for him. So my Easter break very much consists of further researching via internet in bed, socialising via internet in bed, and recovering as fast as I can, not via internet, but in bed.
