Professional Issues in Creative Media Post 2 - The Year Ahead...

We were given a 20 page questionnaire called "The Year Ahead". It's basically a book filled with questions on how you would describe your past year and what you thought of it. Then you would move on to how you would hope your next year goes and what you hope will happen.

We didn't need to fill it out or hand it up but our lecturer said it would be a great way of understanding yourself and what you will want in the future.

I decided to bring it back to the apartments and show my roommates. Since they are like-minded 3rd year media students like myself, however they are in the game development course. As well as them, I also brought it down to my neighbors in the student apartments and since they were all 4th year music students, they all had very different answers.

With each group I showed it to, we started off just making jokes of all the questions. For example, to the question, "What was the biggest risk you took in the past year?" our answer was, "Not pulling out". Then for, "What was the biggest surprise of the year" our answer was, "The baby".

But then the more we got into it, the more we genuinely considered our answers and we took the time to answer properly. I found it amazing to see how everyone was genuinely interested to hear what others had to say and how people wanted to think more about themselves as they answered the questions. It made me learn more about myself as well as the people around me. It actually made us closer and have a good laugh. It was worth the time answering it.
