Beginnings

Okay, I'm not real sure what to do at this point. I have always meandered my way through my obligations and whenever I reached a point where I was confronted with something I didn't know, but it interested me, I learned about it. I am creative by nature and I am frequently engaged in a new "hobby" or experiment, just to figure out what it does, how it works, or how it can help me reach students in my classes.
I have to admit, the mere thought of organizing and planning to be creative is proving difficult to digest. I suppose it is another way to work us out of our comfort zone into getting more productive evidence or proof of creativity will make us better grad students?!? Maybe? I have several projects I have begun but haven't had the time to complete, but I don't think that is the goal here. I sense newness is a necessity or at least such time that it is a memory, not a periodic thought. I will give it some more thought and post tomorrow a short list of things I have begun since this course started and hopefully determine a final choice in the next day or so. Tomorrow I will post the shortlist and pros and cons as I see them. Feel free to comment at will, as I welcome all thoughts to add to the substance of the debate.
Thanks.
