During week 1 session 1 we were given three reading in class to read and reflect within the table groups. For independent study we were to read all the readings (Stress and the city, Stress of moving, and Stress of driving) and decide on our favourite one to continue through the project with. For the 'stress of moving' reading I felt that I could not relate to this brief and have a deep enough, personal understanding of it as I have never moved before. As for the stress of driving, while I was reading this text I also did not personally relate to it as I drive into uni every day and find driving quite therapeutic.
The stress in the city text spoke to me the loudest and also while reading this text I thought this was the most broad in opportunities for this project. As I am constantly traveling from Upper Hutt to Wellington and back, I am constantly moving in and out of the city so I felt that by getting a fresh exposure of the city everyday I notice the chaos and stress more than people that live in the city might.
