is being worried a good thing? course it is :)

Where to start... well i was utterly confused when i came in on what to do for my honours project after thinking about it all summer.
After having a discussion with my tutors it was a bit clearer but still not clear enough for me to start what i want to do, and jump straight into the work.
I decided to give myself some time to actually really focus and figure out what i want to do for my honours.
2 days past and i started to think about my options, i really want to do concepts for environments and diffrent types of characters for my game, but then there is also the writing side to it,i guess you can call it the narrative side of games design.
when i thought i had it nailed, i got hit by reality, realising that i do not really have the particular set of skills to pull off the charcters and environment to a high enough standard.
So i have decided to model some awesome lookign props for my game, even though i didnt really want to model this year but it kind of feels like i have no choice but saying that ive been thinking and been reasearching also with drawings and it just feels right strangely enough and im looking forward to the results.

today it is the 2nd october, maybe im overreacting but time for me is going past so fast and tommorrow  is the 3rd week since i started uni. i made a schedule for myself before i started uni and it consisted with me only having 1 day off a week to make sure i do not over work myself, but even today it somehow feels like i have not worked hard enough, i mean i have got off to a great start on my futures project got enough raw data to suffice for at least 30 pages. i now have got an introduction and a also about 2 pages on the past section of my futures project, but for one day off work that seems like nothing at all. that fact disapoints me quite a bit as i wanna do the best i can at all time and give everything a 100 percent, yet it feels like i am not pushing hard enough. well im going to keep positive and see if this week coming up changes my way of thinking for the better. there is some good news though autumn is finally here, its my favourite season as even though the leaves are falling off the tree branches and things are starting to waver away its still looks beautiful, which kind of makes a person think even when things look down and things are not going as smoothly as you would have hoped, it could be a lot worse so just enjoy it whilst you can. anyway enough off this jargon lets just see what the next couple of months have in store for me.
