It is either that or
there the result hits come back with a total of 1,209 searches. 'This is
hilarious', I think. But none of this is really hilarious, because when I
painstakingly scrolled down the pages and flicked through the endless pages of
the searches - I have to give up - half of them are just not what I am looking
for. So, where did I go wrong? What did I do wrong? How? Oh no, hairs' getting
thinner! (So stop pulling them! That was what my husband said and asked me to use
alternative wordings in search of appropriate and related articles).
I have been spending my
time working full-time, studying and rotating between the two papers with
assignments due soon and literature searches as well, and my, this is no joke,
it is pretty hard when your focus is always on the obvious! What I mean here
is, that I may have been looking into the same direction for everything!
Searching at the Massey
University
As my team mates offered
the idea for searching online from Google Scholar, or just searching online, my
search hits were wider and have more information, although most of these
literature, journals and articles were not from New Zealand alone, but they
did help to give me some insight as to what my topic is about.
Working on this topic:
More focus should be given to support the social well-being of the elderly,
makes me think about a lot. This is a bad habit of mine, when I simply let my
mind wander, it will travel far and wide and came up with lots of dots for me
to connect things. In this case, since I am in hospitality, I met a lot of
different people. Observed a lot of things, when I talked to them, especially
the elderly, they told me about current lifestyle, what they like doing, what
is amiss and what they missed. I was surprised to find myself 'seeing' that
many things, in fact, are connected - like how transportation affects them, how
their physical health failure is bearing them down, you can almost see that
they are yearning for their loved ones to see them but too far away; but then,
will all these information work for me? I am yet to reorganize my thoughts and
test them all out.
So, with all the 'mind
wandering', pondering and also searching, I will still need to continue reading
effectively and continue my search to make sure that I am able to get my points
right. Well, where will this lead me now? Continue the hard labour of searching
still, well, we cannot simply give up, can't we? So, stay tune and happy
reading!
