It begins........

Yes here is where it all starts for another year. Lectures, tute's, assessments, orals.......aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrggggggghhhhhhh. I feel much better now getting that off my chest.

So one of the many tasks for this semester is to create and write an interesting blog with details of what goes on in lectures, tutes and about an exciting essay we all have to write! Sounds exciting doesn't it?????

I am not really up to scratch with the whole blogger thing so this shall be a good learning curve.............or a disaterous one! Such a positive outlook I know.

First week at Uni was as expected. The run through course outlines, when assessments etc are due and how the fact you must spend every living waking moment reading or watching something that is related to a subject ect... Unfortunately i tend to be one of those people who freak out and get an attack of the guilts if i watch even 10 mins of TV. So thank you lecturers your 'fear of god tactic' as it seems to work on this lass..........

Our first lecture to enlighten us on New Communication Technologies was as all first lectures are. Introductions, what's expected etc. One of the many things we will be assessed on is our highly informative Blog! Plus lecture discussions and our essay preparation.

There has been no preparation as of yet for any essay and I have been reading my Media and Communications book to get up to speed with what this sudject will involve. Words such as meme, and some others which i can't remember right at this point in time I had never heard of so the fact i have learn't something new already is a positive start......maybe not so positive that i can't remember, but hey, i have some time yet.

I have to say I did like the Prof Stockwells shirt. Very different from the usual blue collared shirt but very cool.
