It's Arrived!

Update - April


The start of April saw the Introduction of a new Internet plan on board. This means that I no longer have to purchase Internet Cards but Data Packages instead. No longer do I have to keep a close watch on the timer on my screen running out whilst I await for a page to load what may or may not have been what I was looking for in the first place! However, from having an unlimited data allowance. I now have a cap of 500mb per package. This means I have lost the ability to conduct lengthy Skype sessions whilst at Sea. I've yet to test how many minutes of Skype video calling I can make use of with the 500mb allowance. But I shall definitely be putting this to the test!

The on-board Internet plan change over cost me a weeks worth of Internet connectivity. (The main source for my literature information and other forms of media whilst at sea). However all is up and working and I am now plowing through, back in the middle of conducting my professional inquiry. 

Although I've not yet finished conducting my inquiry, I have started to piece together the foundations for my artifact. Having already lost one of my laptops due to it breaking down on me. It is down to my secondary, smaller laptop to be up for the challenge of taking on this task. Slowly but surely the inquiry process is coming together. I'm very much looking forward to seeing what the following days bring!

Finally, after 5 weeks. A book I  had ordered has finally arrived to the ship (having already succumbed to purchasing a digital copy. But nevertheless, I much prefer reading a real book than a digital version of a publication!
