this week's meeting we dicussed about chapter 1.
i should add more on the introduction such as the history of writing, types of writing used in weblogs etc.....
find the article on the 4 psychological functions and relate it to what we are supposed to study about.
focus more on journal types of blogs
find Oxford books that are related to styles and strategies

phew..

i've finished the first part of my chapter 1, what a relief!... but after i met my supervisor things needed to be added here and there... i think it's very unique how our ideas can expand from one small thing, (well i don't actually know how to put this in words but) eventually in the end relate it to things around us. like the chapter 1 that i did was okay but the insight towards a new way of writing it made me see the other view of what i'm studying... it really opened my eyes.. aifaa, you should come and see the draft for my chapter 1, it'll be great if i could chare it with you all..
