This week has started out very tiring as I was away for the weekend and only arrived home the sunday night. Waking up for work was torturous but Im managing to keep a balance between everything that Im involved in this year.
Lisa never wasted any time with putting me on a new project so monday and tuesday was quite busy, running around to make sure that everything is in order and playiong Lisa's right hand wo-man haha Im so glad that she relies on me more and more with tasks and responsibilities.
Since the plans of this project has been approved, the next steps before commencing of the construction are taking place. Yesterday Lisa and I met at site with everyone involved to hand the site over to the contractor. Also getting any information needed for the proceeding of construction. We will meet every second week for site meetings on Tuesdays and I will be revising the plans as we go along. Today I have a few revisions to do. Lisa has administrsation in mind for me regarding this project. Im looking forward to that
I really am finding the site activities exciting and being part of the process makes me feel important.
I am also still busy on the other hand with council submission drawings on a seperate project.
So I look forward to posting up some photos as the building goes up and taking you through the process.
Tech work is coming along but Im trying to speed up the process as the due date is around the corner. I have yet to build my final model and am busy currently with working drawings.
Anyways, let me get back to work,
Ciao

Multi-tasking
So its wednesday and I know I'm about 2 days late with this blog but mondays are seriously bad blogging days as it's becoming more of a drag coming to work on mondays, and so early on top of it all.
Lisa is off for the entire week but has left us all with enough work to do. I am still busy preparing council submission drawings on my current project which so far isnt bad at all.
Ive been spllitting my time between my tech work, work at the office and other commitments that I have started this year, which, have nothing in common with architecture but I enjoy taking a break from it, Ive figured thats how I keep sain. Ive also come to the realisation that I want to do more with myself and this year allows me to do that.
Exercise 5 of STW and CTD is quite a vast amount of work due by the end of the month. Yes, its not that bad as we have done this project in stages and have by now almost all info we need but right now, we only have 19 more days to have a full presentation including all we have up to now and our completed design and model. Luckily I should be about halfway done by now. I really hope that my design and presentation speaks for itself.
Today is my last day of this week that I will be at work. I had to take thursday and Friday off because Im writing my Learners licence tomorrrow and have a training camp the weekend starting friday of 1 of my other commitments. I know, you're wondering whether having another possible career on the side will clash with my studies or my work here in the office...and to answer that I'd say that it depends on you the individual. This year I have learnt to manage my time more effectively and also that one doesnt have to limit yourself to what can be achieved. So far, Im doing well, up to date with everything that Ive committed myself to. It really feels good, procrastination no longer exists to me :) :) :) and that is an accomplishment in its own

Lazy 3 day week
This week has been okay so far. The long weekend just made me lazy, so dont feel like being at work.
Yesterday I spent the day doing some Tech work and realised that I forgot to add my precedent section and details online last week with my submission so I've updated that. I've also been working on getting down to even finer details explaining my process of design and how everything I've been working on up until now has relevance in my design. I am trying to follow my feedback by adding more detail and making sure that I have everything for my final presentation for June.
Lisa has given me a list of things to do regarding the project Im currently busy on. I have to prepare a set of building survey submission drawings and do a few required details, window, door and draiage sections. She has given me the list that I would have to follow in order to submit to council.
Well thats all for this week, until next time :)
