Discussions in Today's Meeting

Dear Super Writers,

First, congratulations on all those who have submitted the assignments and good luck to all those that are going to (Go! Go! You are almost there!) :P

Jessica, Nicol, Issa, Jun, Lucia, Wen Yu and Iris attended today’s meeting. We began with sharing our stories about how we managed to finish our assignments in the last week. Under the pressure of deadline, our “small universe” all exerted extraordinary power, some of us had to stay up for a few nights (such as me :P). But we all agreed that it was not desirable at all, especially at the cost of health and beauty J Surprisingly, the majority of our writing goals for next week were to revise and improve our assignments, that is to say, we regarded our submitted assignments as DRAFTS. Does itindicate the quality of our assignments is not satisfactory (to our standards)? Maybe. Anyhow, keeping on revising and improving our writing is always a good thing, isn’t it?

We also decide to take the advice by Nicol and Issa: if any of us wants to share and get feedback on our draft writing from other group members, we may circulate the piece of writing (e.g. drafts of thesis chapters) among our group through EMAILS (NOT Blog for the confidentiality reason). The other members are free to decide whether s/he will read / respond to it or not. But one important thing is – to show our respect to others’ hard work and our good sense of ethics :P – please don’t keep or circulate the others’ writing; delete it as soon as you finish reading it.

Last but not the least, let’s welcome Nicole to be our Chairperson for the next meeting J
