In the first week I was unable to attend the session due to my car not working properly. This wasn’t ideal but it was only a minor inconvenience as I was still able to complete the task that was set.
My story I chose to do was about how studying in a space dedicated for study (library) will help you improve your grades. I knew one of the lads who was in the library at the same time as me so I asked him if he wouldn’t mind me asking a couple of questions about his ways of studying.
He gave me the answers that I needed for the story and it aligned with what I wanted to write about as well quite nicely. The photo could’ve been better, potentially one of him studying, but in my head at the time I wanted to try and showcase part of the facilities (books) available at the library for people to use.
It did give me an insight on how it is to approach people in a space where people might not want to be approached. Thankfully I knew Ayden so it wasn’t too awkward but it was still a weird one where you don’t want to disturb someone when they are in full-flow state.
