Second course after the windmilss programme...actually right now I came to university altenately with my spouse because we're no choice....however...it seems make me up and down in view of motiavation.Because of that I decided to attend fot this course...unfortunately it doesn't work..i not feel anything enthusasist in my mind...maybe I;m too sleepy during that course..maybe the facilitator too boring...????no powerpoint also can be the factor....with the cold room,no powerpoint n gloomy environment...I can't focus....

HOWEVER.....i'm still struggle to made up my minds and try to find the motivation on my own way......yearh...journey in phd is not always smooth..sometimes have difficulties and sometimes have the happiness.....I hope I will able to go through all the challenges that will came across through this coming 3years in here.....

Supporting and Motivating Your Researh

19 Feb 2008

I've been another course that I hope can be build up my motivation in this journey..but unfortunately it seems not what I expected.....I'm so sleepy(just after my lunch maybe???) and I just grab maybe about 40% from what the facilitator said...

So...I'm still feel down and no motivation to do my readings...In addition my bad coughs also make me more depress..>>>>>I'll email to that facilitator again...Furthermore he had giving some handsouts...so I still have something to look up to increase my motivation....

Yeah...this course about how we tend to divide our life to working,playing,giving and learning.....i'll explain later.......No idea at the moment....

My Journey just begin......

That date reveals that I and my husband was registered as PhD student @ Univ of Salford.
Just imagine...we brought two from three of our daughters.....together during registration...fortunately...the registration process is not so fussy as I assumed before....Just simple....went to Salford Business School and Postgraduate and research Office then got the student card....That's it......So officially both of us being as Phd student....
