How'd I do for my to-do list before Swancon?
Not too bad, but didn't get through everything. So, updates:
* Do readings for Professional Communication unit from last week.
* Listen to lecture for Professional Communication from last week.
* Listen to lecture for Media Audiences and the Public from last week.
* Do readings for Professional Communication for this week (and as it turns out, last week)
- half done. Did last weeks, started on this week's.
* Listen to lecture for Professional Communication for this week.
* Finish readings for Media Audiences and the Public for this week.
Somehow I managed to do this! Urgh with media effects readings. 2009 article has no excuse for using 'the models of mankind' where they mean 'people/humans' in general :/ The other article was just as irritating but less easy to put my finger on why - examples generally seemed very stereotypical and while there was lots of evidence I don't think the writer (and I assume he) said much about the examples and intended them to be 'obvious'.
* Listen to lecture for Media Audiences and the Public for this week.
* Watch Twilight: Breaking Dawn (Part 1) in preparation for my panel.
* Watch Sourcecode in preparation for my panel.
* Watch Limitless in preparation for my panel.
To do between now and Monday!
* Try and make notes about the movies I've watched in the last year for my panel for easy recall.
Half done. Ready for tonight's movies.
* Prod other panellists for Lost Girl panel and find episode synopsis website so that we can recall stuff easier to talk about re sexy instead of sexist.
* Buy cereal and milk for breakfasts, and sandwich makings for lunch for Swancon.
In progress but I've done my bit and can count it done. I have awesome fresh coffee for grinding for the con. Also looseleaf tea.
* Make a fruitcake and crispy chick pea snacks for Swancon.
hahaahaha, no time for this, it won't get done. Though I still want to make the crispy chick peas generally speaking
* Buy cheese and chocolate nibbles for Swancon.
I'm counting this done too as I bought chocolate and K and Cam will get the cheese.
* Do laundry for Swancon.
* Pack for Swancon.
* Double check all my calendar entries for me and Marianne whom I'm minding over the con.
* Try and get up to date with Lost Girl and White Collar before Swancon.
* Listen to more awesome cello music because apparently I can't get enough.
Bold are things I'm still planning to do. Comments where applicable, strike through items are done with :)
Feeling pretty accomplished so far :D
