Extended Essay ,here we go !

Getting back from summer into our last year at Uni is getting exciting.  New projects, ideas and journeys are about to start once again and for good. Although there are some major concerns about my COP proposal submitted just before the end of level 5 I would love to mention.

My original proposal and ideas for my COP project level 6 is probably going to change in comparison to what I had so far during the summer. I feel like I rushed when choosing my main topic for this year's "dissertation". Some of the ideas and references were vague and didn't really motivated me enough on a second look. Don't get me wrong, it is something that I'm interested in, although I know that is not going to be enough to keep me 100% focus.

That's why I decided to give a 360% change on my proposal and give it a fresh starting point. I decided to continue the path that I've been choosing during the past 2 years regarding to COP . In a way, having this last minute change is actually a good thing as I will reinforce and follow my previous studies on Satire and Social media and to be honest, i feel like this is for the best. 

During this weeks I will re-planning my ideas and topics, questions that I want to explore and investigate, and obviously, all the books references will be changing according to my new interests.
