Time Strategies

 Thoughts about time management strategies


For this class, I will be finishing all of my tasks before the due date and also doing extra credit tasks. I know I will have challenges along the way and I will have doubts about doing them on the very last day but I will push through and remind myself that this challenge won't last forever and that I will figure it out.


Realistic Study Plans by Amanda Collins  ←Click for post

In this post by Amanda Collins, she mentions printing out a template to fill in your study plan and I have started doing this and it helps you stay focused on your tasks. Amanda Collins talks about having realistic study sessions and I have finally come to terms that my study sessions are at night when the house is quiet and it is peaceful with no distractions. 


Ticking of my goals is very important to me because once I submit that assignment it gives me the motivation to start the next one. I have realised that ticking something off from my template makes me try harder to submit my work before the due date and to complete it to my full potential.

Time Management Tips Just for Creatives ←Click for post

by Amanda Oliver

 Amanda Olivers mentions "work when you work best" and I work best at night and I think after all this time trying to do my work during the day and it not working out I realised to leave it till the night and it works great.


Procrastination is what everyone has but if you can push through it and I did it makes you feel accomplished and happy in the end.


The last point in the post that I think is useful with time management is to do the worst things first. There is nothing better than finishing that assignment that you don't enjoy first and I can agree on that so I will start doing it more often.

Introduction to a future business owner

A picture of me :)  Hi, I'm Milena, nice to meet you. I am 20 years old and I love food, joking, well not really because I do love food but there's more to me than love for food. I can speak three languages, English, Russian and Lithuanian. I came to Ireland when I was five years old and got thrown into junior infants a week later not knowing any English and you probably know how that went. I did a lot of crying for the few first weeks because I could not understand one word anyone was saying to me but then I learned.  This is how to say hello in Russian and Lithuanian.  -Russian:  Привет (Pri-vet) Privet -Lithuanian: Labas (La-bas)

Game Vision Statement

Projects: Vision Statement vision idea/design document     A vision idea/design document is created to present a plan that you have for your game. In this document, I will be expressing my idea of the game. I have decided that I am very interested in the game that would be called “Shooting stars”. I had game ideas like "shoot the starfish", shoot rings onto a big starfish, or shooting bubbles but I like the sound of shooting stars. The name "shooting stars" reminds me of the night, calmness, and overall peace. This game is all about relaxing your mind and destressing but also could be a challenge. The game genre is shooting.  The gameplay starts of with a beautiful dark night sky, some relaxing music playing in the background, and possibly some sound effects of shooting stars like some “SWOOSH” sounds or any other sounds that "shooting stars" could make. At the bottom of the screen, there is a shooter or a shooting station. The shooting station would have ...

Game Design

Game Design Public domain license Link to image Game design seems hard yet after reading a few articles you soon realised how easy it can be to design and create a game. In my mind to create a game you have to be a genius with all of the knowledge of coding but after reading a post by Angela He" From Zero to Game Designer: how to start building video games even if you don’t have any experience"  you realise that in order to create a game all you need to have is an  idea, information about what kind of game you want it to be and the purpose, characters, some experience playing games, and some passion.   After reading the class reading task I realise you can create a game by drawing a simple line on a paper and dividing it into sections forming a challenge for the character. The next step is to choose a character and the enemy for example I chose an apple as the main character and a girl as the enemy. The apple runs away from the girl because the girl loves apples and there...
