Final Project Update

 My final project is honestly not going well. I finally think that I’m on the right track but it took hours and hours of iterations and restarts. To be completely honest I still need to email Michelle about my topic because I changed mine a couple times and before I go too far I need her sign off. My topic now is looking at intergenerational trauma in literature through time and space and I thankfully was able to find some variety in primary sources. I was having a really hard time finding primary sources for a while and an even harder time finding secondary sources that would lead me to primary sources. What I really should have done was meet with Michelle, but my schedule was not going to allow for that. I have had to put this project in the backseat in order to get other work done with more pressing deadlines. Unfortunately, next week will be even busier than this last one, but I know that if I don’t meet with Michelle at least once I won’t complete this project. I am hoping that after a meeting on Tuesday, maybe one on Thursday, and a lot of asking questions in the form of comments in my research dock, I’ll be in a good place to just be able to grind out work over break in preparation for the final project presentation. Needless to say I am feeling incredibly stressed and overwhelmed and I’m really hoping that with some hard work, direction, and dedicated time, I’ll come out of it okay.
