How To Write the Bachelor Thesis! Bachelor-Thesis: Long Road ahead or closer than You think?
It was a bit scary to be at first to be honest. I would have to submit the structure for my thesis within a short period of time, and I didn’t have a topic yet. I struggled to figure out what would interest me, simply put, what would float my boat. There was a huge choice of topics, and I started to write ideas down to paper. This is about two months ago, and looking back to these ideas, they seem ridiculous to me now. But they were all necessary for me to find out the topic that I would be writing about.
It is a long journey that takes daily actions. Just a couple of days ago, I went through my introduction which I had rewritten over and over again. Also, I had the title written down, and it didn’t seem quite right to me. Whenever I thought about sending my writing to my teacher, I felt uncomfortable, because it simply didn’t look like anything that I could be putting out there. I felt as if I needed to erase the whole thing and start all over again, with a different idea. I thought that all the days sitting at my desk, reading books on “how to”, researching, and writing, structuring and pondering around were all wasted. But when I figured that I only needed to move some wording around, the whole situation started to change. I felt as if I was closer to the result than I had thought at first.
I have half my introduction written now and am quite happy with my title and the structure of the introduction so far. However, the thing that bugs me is, that when I write freely, I don’t cite, which would be the next step of my journey. I then searched the literature, that I used in order to write my research question and my introduction. It comes in handy, to have saved everything prior, all the articles read (skimmed through) and pages opened (with the date last opened). I feel as if it is a bit of multitasking to read and focus on the text, when at the same time, to write down which thought came from where. But that is also all practice I guess.

// I reached 10k in #TheGlassKingdom!! 😱 The story's finally moving! // ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [ writing update ] It took me longer than expected to add more things in chapter 7 because I was stuck. It feels like my MC has walked into a wall and his head keeps on slamming into it. SO I left that particular scene and wrote another that excites me — that has more action! Gotta grab your character and throw him/her into an unexpected scenario and TRY to connect the whys, and what led your character there. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [ re-introduction post ] PLUS, I realised that I have a bunch of new followers/friends. It was good timing too since @cassiedaywrites tagged me to share 5 random facts about myself. Here goes nothing: ▶I am an only child and I come from a multiracial family ▶I am a lover of Glee and a movie buff who loves writing reviews on my blog ▶I can read horror but not watch it. I always wanted to write horror but can't write it because what if the door squeaks open for no reason in the middle of the night, or what if I wake from a nightmare to see two haunting eyes staring down at me. SO, not gonna try writing one. ▶I love reading anything that has something forbidden in it like forbidden romance or friendship. YAS, gimme!! I also love slow burn romances. ▶ I'm not good at writing shorter pieces because once there is an idea, I will brainstorm like crazy. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thank you, everyone, for sticking with me and joining me on this long writing journey. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Tell me ONE fun fact about yourself. Are you a writer? Or a reader? Or both? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [ tags ] 📷 : @tasha_abraham #amwritingfantasy #finishthatdraft #finishthedraft #writingfantasy #writingispassion #writersloveforever #writingispassion #ilovewriting #writingfun #malaysianwriters #writedreambelieve #writersnetwork #spilledink #fellowcreativeminds #amplotting #writingisfreeing #wordporn #writersloveforever #firstdraft #writersunite #writingabook #writergirl #writereadrepeat #wipinspiration #writinganovel #writingfantasy #writerscorner #fictionauthor #writingfiction (at Tambun, Perak, Malaysia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-KHkSrAHOb/?igshid=1mal3owz3ekac

April 7, 2020 Today I Will
Today I will be a success. Today I will be calm. Today I will feel contentment. Today I will feel satisfaction. Today I will not rush. Today I will listen to my impulses. Today I will be keenly aware of how I am feeling. Today I will take moments during the day to take a deep breath and ask myself how am I feeling? What do I need right now? How does my body feel?
Today I will take a breath before I answer a question or respond to someone. Today I will do something to move my body in a way that feels good to me. Today, no matter what I do, I will feel proud of what I accomplished. Today I will focus more on taking action than being passive. Today I will put my phone down and pick up a book. Today I will trade coffee for water. Today I will smoke less. Today I will meditate. Today I will eat nourishing foods. Today I will be aware of what I am putting into my body. Today, when I go to eat something, I will ask myself- would I feed this to my inner child? Today I will go live on facebook and have a wonderful time. Today I will have a thriving business. Today I will connect with new and fun people. Today, I will do something kind for someone else. Today I will create a plan. Today I will focus on the things that I want to manifest in my life. Today I will focus on the feelings that I want to experience throughout my life. Today I will breath in fresh air. Today I will go for a walk. Today I will enjoy the sunrise and the sunset. Today I will enjoy nature. Today I will learn something new. Today I will meet kind and fun people. Today I will cuddle with my cat, Momo. Today I will remind Jeff that I love him. Today I will get dressed. Today I will make the bed. Today I will listen to a podcast. Today I will enjoy who I am. Today I will practice talking to myself in a kind and loving way. Today I will clothe my body in clothes that are comfortable and make me feel good. Today I will do things that bring me joy.
Today I Will.

Freedom
...has so many different connotations. For me, it has to do with expression, with having a voice and a stamina to carry on, despite the billion, small, distracting daily injustices and incessant wild, at times largely superficial, chatter in the world.
The ability to be free is priceless. It’s in all of us. Sometimes we forget.
This past year I forgot. I felt stuck. Glued to the spot. I found myself stuck in a cycle of pain, trying to change situations I could not possibly change. Where love and respect are significantly lacking, change and growth cannot come about. But because I cared so much, I desperately tried to make sense of things that were mostly cruel, and irrational anyway; things that I couldn’t adjust no matter how hard I tried, and most importantly, that I should never have accepted in the first place. I banged my head on a brick wall several times. That was my insanity and distance from freedom.
I’m being a little vague here, as the point isn’t to blame another person or situation. The point is to recognise, that even in times of great heavy heartbreak, open wounds, and feelings of utter despair, and panic (we’ve all been there), there is always a light somewhere, even if it’s far off and we can only see a glimmer. Having freedom is having the skill to sense the presence of that light with your mind, and soul, if not with your eyes, at any given time.
This year was challenging for me on an emotional level. My world crumbled repeatedly. But I’m standing my ground now. I’m expressing what I want to express, with no fear, and I can sense the light out there. Thank you to all those people that are love; there are people out there who taste of love; who embody those values, and those are the types of people I want to remain surrounded by.
The rest can fuck off.
(I had to be blunt somewhere. I’m Echo. Part Greek. Part Forest nymph.)
If any of you are in London next week, I’m doing a very special show with two awesome musicians accompanying me (Adam Green and Danilo Rodriguez) - opening for Brighton based UK artist Si Connelly @Servant Jazz Quarters in Dalston, London. 18th of June, Tuesday. 7.30pm sharp. Tickets available on Facebook/Instagram/Twitter echowantshervoiceback
Love,

In my part of the world, the air is crisp, the wind is cooler, leaves are turning orange, red and yellow. Stores are filled with Halloween candy and costumes, turkeys and a hint of red and green. All this means it’s that time of year again; time for National Novel Writing Month!
When writers young and old; published and unpublished take time to come together and write 50,000 words in 30 days. The…

(Using the prompt, I made a tiny little snippet.)
They are beautiful.
The flowers I take care of in my garden are lovely. They catch the light of the moon, and I carefully try not to tread over them in the darkness. They sprout from the floor sweetly, poised to be admired, and I lean down to touch them, reaching for a familiar bud. They are cold to my fingertips, but I grasp them in my hand, relishing the soft leathery feeling of the five petals that seems to change as time passes. My garden seems to grow more and more every day, with new flowers blooming so often I can hardly believe my eyes.
My friends don't appreciate them as much as me. They treat it with disgust, but that's only because they can't understand the true beauty of my flowers. In stunning shades of brown, tan, soft porcelain... and occasionally snow white, my blossoms are unmatched in majesty.
It's all right. I'll show my friends the truth. Once they are added to my garden, they'll become just as lovely. I'll be able to collect even more blooms, to visit at night when I'm alone and want company. The stiff, rigid flowers that I adore so much will only continue to grow prettier.
In the dwindling moonlight that casts their crooked, bent shadows along the soil, they are beautiful.

Today you get a 2fer on the #tenthingschallenge as yesterday I was pretty exhausted and couldn't post. The first pic is 10 Meet Cute Ideas, feel free if they inspire you to utilise them, also don't ask me how my brain works okay. That's what happens when you ask me to brain fart out ideas. The second is 10 alternative careers Anna could have. Honestly Anna in #thechroniclesofsilverdeer has dreamed all her life about being a mythotiquarian so I don't think she thought too much about alternative careers beyond maybe archaeologist or professor or something in a museum. #writingcommunity #writingfun #amwriting #authorgram #authorsofinstagtam #writergram #writersofinstagtam #meetcute #chroniclesofsilverdeer https://www.instagram.com/p/CTkpx4eLdZT/?utm_medium=tumblr

The idea of writing about Robot Lumberjacks is intriguing! Then again the idea of writing a geographic history on "Where has the rum gone?" could be a secret best seller...

// all this research is making me dizzy and is disturbing my concentration on writing The Glass Kingdom // ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ever feel like this — when you are writing a chapter and you don't know what happens next, or how to describe this character, or what this room looks like, or how to portray your MC as an expert who knows everything about certain things, etc, etc? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am feeling this!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ At the end of the day, the sprinkles and icing decorations are not supposed to be on the cake because it is SUPPOSED to be a half-baked cake. A baker wants to bake a cake but doesn't know what other ingredients to add besides the basics. I have flour (characters, some have names and some don't), sugar (a plot that is all over the place), butter (chapters), eggs (chapter titles). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And for an inexperienced baker, and a writer writing a draft 1, things are going to get messy. That's how the cookie crumbles. BUT be proud of that mess because afterwards when you're doing the 2nd draft, it is going to be less of a mess. And from the mess, something good emerges: a new version of the story is born and everything falls into place. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What are you currently struggling with? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ [ tags ] #2020willbebetter #TheGlassKingdom #poetrycommumity #bawritinglife #writingbuddies #soontobeauthor #writinginprogress #amdrafting #nerdcommunity #poetrysocietyofinstagram #poetryloversunite #postitivethinking #girlpoet #writersconnect #finishthatdraft #amwritingfantasy #finishthedraft #writingfantasy #writingispassion #amwritingfantasy #writersloveforever #storytelling #ipohwriters #writingispassion #ilovewriting #writingaseries #writingfun #malaysianwriters #writedreambelieve #amwritingdarkfantasy (at Tambun, Perak, Malaysia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B94FWCigMEK/?igshid=1afxlp6enmyag
