Biweekly Reflections
Every two weeks, I write reflections on what happened during those two weeks, what I have done and what I can do to overcome any challenges faced along with achievements made and rooms for improvements. Along with the written reflection, I have also recorded a video summary of my biweekly reflections.
Week 5
Completion of Week 4 deliverables
​
Due to the large amount of task given for that week, I was surprised that I managed to finished all within the week.
Week 5 deliverables
​
Even though I managed to complete all the task for week 4, there are still incomplete tasks in week 5 that has landed itself onto week 6 due to last minute plans that arouse in that week.
Recording of video for week 6
​
The potential of recording the first song in week 6 will most likely be pushed back due to Grade 8 violin pieces and SNYO audition pieces that took up the time to ask my violin teacher for one more session help before recording the piece. There would be lots of practice recordings but the final would most likely be in push all the way to after the SNYO audition (8th December)
