Postgraduate Lives: June 2015
http://postgraduatelives.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 23, 2015. The journeys within the research journey: Making time for wellbeing. Some mornings it's easy to find inspiration to fuel my thinking. My cycle journey to university presents many of the same features each day, experienced a little differently. Loosing feeling in my hands and feet is not the most obvious contribution to a sense of wellbeing, but it sure helps me to appreciate my office once I get there. And some days, moving around on a bike is just tested to the limits. Do share p...

Thursday, August 25, 2016. Academic Conversations with.Lara Sanderson. I often feel that I have told my story a thousand times . With every telling I know I sh ift and move with it ,. O this is me (f or now). I live a quiet life, I am in my finishing year, so I live in my writing cave. Before I enter my writing cave,. N those still moments of the morning, when the harbour mirrors the sky, I wander through the streets with an exeuberant spoodle named Toby #Phd Dog. Into the writing cave. Research that des...

Coretan di Kala Senggang: Tidak Punya Kasut Baru
http://hisyamchemat.blogspot.com/2016/02/tidak-punya-kasut-baru.html
Selawat dan Salam Ke Atas Junjungan Mulia Nabi Muhammad SAW. Friday, 26 February 2016. Tidak Punya Kasut Baru. Dulu-dulu saya sering merungut apabila mak dan abah tak mampu membeli sepasang kasut baru berjenama untuk dipakai seperti yang dipakai oleh kawan-kawan yang mampu. Pada ketika itu saya tak sedar bahawa ada lagi 'rakan-rakan' di luar sana yang bukan sahaja tidak mampu untuk membeli sepasang kasut malahan mereka ini TIDAK JUGA PUNYA KAKI. Untuk menyarungkan kasut yang ingin mereka miliki. 10 Augus...

Postgraduate Lives: April 2015
http://postgraduatelives.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 10, 2015. Seeing the signs - the switched-on analysis brain. I realised I had 'analysis brain' a few weekends ago as I was driving back from a day of interviewing participants. Being a Sunday afternoon, the offerings on National radio were more entertainment than current affairs, but something must have caught my attention. Perhaps it was the mention of Facebook? Currently I'm immersed in transcribing. I'm actively looking for themes instead of tripping over them. It's a laborious y...Profe...

Postgraduate Lives: September 2015
http://postgraduatelives.blogspot.com/2015_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 28, 2015. Guest Blog: The distraction(s) of life. One of the dilemmas. I have published some stuff and I am determined to do some more, but other distractions keep coming along. I suspect that I am also becoming more comfortable with the distractions that I choose and life puts my way. I am better at playing with distractions and being in the moment. Links to this post. Monday, September 14, 2015. If you live in the UK and someone asks ‘what’s New Zealand like? And I guess that is a pre...

Monday, July 20, 2015. Producing Snazzy Posters (in PowerPoint). Nevertheless, the beauty of creating a poster is that it forces you to condense your ideas into the space of a poster. Ultimately it may help you get that single thesis statement. In this post I am going to expand upon this to making posters in PowerPoint. This is what I have found works for me without any design skills or fancy stuff – take what you need and leave the rest. There are other options available, including using Inkscape. So wi...

First Footings | A Word to the Wise
https://escriboir.wordpress.com/2013/10/06/first-footings
A Word to the Wise. And other things you might not know. October 6, 2013. A word to the wise. I was lucky enough to have some funds put by for the purpose, so searched around on the Internet for likely creative writing courses. It was a quagmire! Everyone and his aunt professed to know how to write, but most seemed to be earning their crust by writing about how to write, without doing any actual writing themselves. Was I too cynical? So I did. I was keen. Then I emailed directly to the head of school, wh...

A Word to the Wise. And other things you might not know. October 11, 2013. It is typical of me to throw myself manically into any new venture, so I had already been casting around for the next step up. It was time to bring it into play. The Open University had a level one (first year, undergrad) course with a creative writing element and no-one there was going to say no to me. Yippee! October 6, 2013. A word to the wise. The course materials and first three assignments were sent via an email link and I g...
