8. Determined to make the most out of my years at uni. Success. Want to be a success. being surrounded by like minded people helps me push myself to try different things.

Where?

9. Foundation learn't i wanted to be a graphic designer. Loved working in different styles and trying different things. Before this year didn't fully understand digital slr. Didn't know illustrator/indesign etc. Materials - printing on etc. Can now comfortably tackle things.

10. Develop my own style. find materials and things i am comfortable using. Become skilled in areas i love. Develop large portfolio through college work, my own work and live briefs.

How?

11. By trying different things - final cut, printing etc. Always not taking the easy option. If i make a mistake, try to learn from it and either not do it again or try different way.

12. Realised i'm not going to be good at everything. Makes me relaise where my strengths lie and where to push myself in the future. Makes me know what to avoid.

13. By realising what i don't enjoy i can spend time in the future on things i enjoy and therefore push my skills in it. By making mistake i can learn where my strengths lie.

14. Given me a lot to strive for. A lot to look forward to in the future. Its made me strive to learn new things, experimenting and trying new methods.
