Hmm.
So, we were told to start a blog. So I did. Fast forward two weeks and I finally remember about it and go to make my first post about what I “think about the course and my first impressions of Uni”. Or something. I like the impact writing short sentences has, by the way.
So far I think that the course is pretty ace and has, as I expected, a decent practical/theory combination. I’m enjoying lectures and seminars and workshops and whatever else we have because I’d like to think I quite enjoy learning. I’d also like to think I’ve met some pretty safe people to hang around with (for now! ha ha), oh and also that the subject matter is something I’m interested in. Mega. But on the downside some of the things have been going whoosh straight over my head; Monday morning lectures seem to be the most difficult to properly get and figure out how the majority of the stuff might apply to IMP. But hey, some of it’s interesting anyway like today’s soundtrack lecture.
I guess the most difficult thing so far, down to a distinct lack of organisational skills, has been actually going away and doing what we’ve been asked. I mean I bet loads of people wrote this post weeks ago didn’t they! I guess I had to challenge my idea of blogs pretty much containing introspective whining whingey bollocks – and then knowing it will be read. That doesn’t need to be the case but this post is getting that way.
Think I’m going to buy a printer. And crack on with the old visual diary. And watch all three series of Peep Show (4.3gb, took ages damn slow torrents), and Saw I & II. And then get Football Manager 2007 and only leave my room for more milk/sugar/tea/jaffa cakes.
This is turning into some mini-essay of my stream of consciousness that was semi-planned in my mind before logging onto WordPress – I had something else to write about but I’ve forgotten. Ah well. I’m pretty excited about the course and what I might learn to get almost good at in the next three years, just gotta stick my arse in gear (car metaphor, not drug reference) and get in the habit of doing work outside of ‘contact’ time. Hmm.
