Well I've managed to get quite a bit done today, even though I've had a parents evening and my dad hasn't been well enough to look after my boys. (Mind you is it still today? Or since it's past midnight is it yesterday now?) I'd got most of my research and planning done in principal but it feels so much better to get it uploaded on here. I've still got a couple of thing to scan but my printer's playing silly buggers and not letting me do it. I think I've probably had enough for one night anyway.
Just one other thing... why oh why can I use Creo on the uni computers without a hitch but as soon as I get home it all goes ape? I've got myself a basic mouse (my wireless one really didn't like Creo) but now it seems that Creo is doing the complete opposite of what I want. Isn't technology brilliant?! Although I'm sure my wonderful tutor John will iron out all the creases for me when I next see him. Hopefully it'll be something basic and obvious. But knowing me it won't be....
Welcome to my blog. My name's Kate, I'm a 30 year old mother of two and currently studying a 2yr BSc in Design and Technology Education at Sheffield Hallam University. This is my first serious attempt at blogging and forms part of my second project in the Design and Manufacture module. You'll find out what this project involves by looking at my Design Brief page. Please feel free to look around - constructive criticism is most welcome.

Got to get cracking!
Well my blog is all up and running now. I will be adding more pages over the next few days. I should have done this last week and I'm now behind on this project (due to a number of different things) but I'm confident I'll get back on track.
I'm looking forward to working on this project. I've always wanted to write a blog as a way of recording my inane ramblings, but never seem to find the time! I love writing and I feel that this will be a good way to get my thought processes across, as well as allowing me to be creative with the visual elements.
I'm also excited at the prospect of using the rapid prototyping tools, things like that weren't around when I was at school and I think they will be a great tool to use. I'm going to an art exhibition showing pieces created with these processes and I can't wait for that. My friend has got exclusive preview tickets so it's also an opportunity to get a bit glammed up :-) Hopefully I'll be able to get some good photographs of the work and upload them on to here.
