Back to school and we've received 2 assessment notifications and continuing an assessment task. Yay. I didn't do anything but sleep and eat in the holidays so I have made zero progress on this project :D Life is good.

A historical fiction incursion is heading our way which I'm looking forward to. I haven't decided yet on what medium I'm doing this project with, but historical fiction is a possibility. Maybe I'll write a Memoir? Does that fit into historical fiction?

Another topic that I just thought up a second ago is how Catherine the Great is portrayed. I noticed that she has a lot of variations in her appearance as well as the way she looks. For example, in one painting she looks like a really nice grandma and other times she's a beautiful stern empress. This also applied to the different films that we watched in class. I find this interesting, but I really hate analysing images and film, since we went bananas in doing that in English.

I will research a little more tomorrow about my initial topic - Memoirs and Letters. I have already made some notes, so I will post them up soon in my Notebook :)
