At first, I felt anxious about the assignment, like facing an unclimbable mountain. So, I used my navigation to help me get to the NGV, caught the bus, and continued on my way. On the way, I kept using the navigation to make sure I wasn't going in the wrong direction.
As time went by, I gradually found the rhythm of creation, and even through the stimulation of some small drinks I was able to inspire new ideas, and eventually submitted the assignment successfully, feeling immense achievement and joy.
In the NGV, I was mesmerised by the works on display, and these visual jolts provided me with new inspiration. However, after the visit, I began to feel anxious again about how the rest of the work would unfold. For this reason, I had to stay up late to do my homework and try to complete every part of the assignment.
