Today we decided to meet up again to keep going with this project since it’s pretty hard to find a time to meet up since all of us 3 have really different schedules. Hollie works both monday and tuesdays 9-5 and all of us 3 would ideally meet up after thursdays class but thats when we have our elective, so its really hard for us to actually get any work done until the weekend. Today we sat down and started collating down the information we received in the only survey. this took us a couple of hours to start narrowing down what we thought were common factors and answers to all the questions we asked. we then started to file down which were the keywords that came up, and do things like categorise them in light hearted, serious and in the middle answers we got.
Even though we only met up for a couple of hours i think it was helpful to talk through all the survey answers we got together as it helped us all gain an understanding of the patterns and common answers we have been getting.
it was actually really eye opening to go through all of the answers as all of them were so honest and pure, some of the answers even brought a couple tears to our eyes as we 3 of us have siblings who we live apart from. it was really nice to see that people were being completely honest about some of the issues they face with their siblings, and how they solve them. we also had a section which we asked the funniest story they had, and these were hilarious to go through!
