Week 2 - reflection on ABCD and sleep deprivation

What's first - sleep deprivation or ABCD?
I want to be on task, see all my colleagues' posts and comments, but find it very hard to stay awake. I woke up early, after a 4 times interrupted night sleep (10 year old boy with sleeping disorder :) ) and wanted to post my thoughts in my blog. I had it all figured out and now I can't remember half of it - The method, the other methods I have learned last year  - the Process Model. the Mixed Focus Model - the way I can "blend" them together...
I think I will continue this afternoon, after work and the children's after-school activities.
"See" you then,
Nourit

  1. Dear Nourit,
    I believe you'll be able to overcome all the difficulties and I advise you to make notes when you read something interesting, even if you don't need the information at the moment, the time when you really need it will come. If you have sorted your thoughts, write them down quickly on a sheet of paper and then it will be easier for you to remember what you were going to write about.
    Best regards,

  2. Hi Nourit..

    I agree with Irina..We all have our own obstacles this week..but I think we'll overcome them..just keep on the spirit ^^

    Irina's idea is interesting..I think I will try it too..sometimes I think about what I should post on my blog or comment on board but being interrupted by other things just distract my focus..thanks to Irina for sharing..

    About your question of inserting the images on my blog..you can do it while you're writing your entry on the blog..there are many icons on the top of the blank form for writing you entry...it is a small blue icon next to LINKS icon..it says "insert image"..just click it then choose the directory to upload your picture or image then click add selected..

    You can find many great images on www.gettyimages.com . It's a reliable web for searching images.. I like illustration one..you can click off Photography so it will appear all the illustration images..

    About the background image of my blog..I chose Picture Window template..as I can see..you chose Simple template..if you want to change it..just click Design then choose Template Designer..click on Picture Window..on the left side you can see many links such as Templates,Background, Layout, Advance..click on Background then you can choose the one you like ^^ don't forget to click the orange button says APPLY TO BLOG..whola..your blog has new look..

    Don't hesitate to ask me ..

    Happy trying..

    Regards

  4. Dear Nourit,
    I feel I understand you when you sat to post something on your blog and did not remember what to say. I felt a little stressed at the begining, not knowing whether I would have time to do all I had to do each week.. Now I do as if I had classes on Wednesdays and Sundays and must find time for my readings in between... Just flow and be yourself... You will be successful. You have already been.. The goal is just an excuse to walk and walking is the goal.. Ah! and I like your background, I still am not satisfied with mine!!
