5. Learn to tackle difficult briefs.
6. Work to a strict time scale.

8.  Pass my driving test by the end of the year.
9.  Expand my knowledge on the latest design software.
10. Experiment and expand my skills with different mediums.

8. Broaden the style and quantity of work in our portfolio in order to improve preparation  for interviews/searches for internships.
9. Keep an up to date blog.
