Two weeks into my uni course and like the title says i've been thrown right in the deep end! I said I would write once i've found something interesting to talk about but to be honest i've been so preoccupied with my essays (all three of them) that all my writing energy has been going into those!
My first week of uni was pretty laid back, not a lot of work more just introduction to the various papers which was good. This semester i'm taking:
Interpersonal Communication
Applied Media Ethics
Image and Sound
and a Media Production Workshop which goes all year and consists of three 8 week blocks of Video Production, Radio Production and Creative Industries.
Image and Sound I already know will not be my "thing"... i'm not great at writing about stuff that's just about analysing things. I'm more into having ideas and being able to back them up with facts and applying theories to ideas/situations.
I completely LOVED my last IPCom lecture, we learnt all about Intercultural Communication which was really interesting, as is my Media Ethics paper -I love Ethics! Wish I had the brains to do Philosophy!
This week started with a bang when I kind of broke a $10,000 production camera... whoops haha. Luckily it wasn't entirely my fault and luckily it was only a little bit broken and luckily they have insurance!! However to make up for it all they said our final short looked the most professional and actually evoked emotion so yay for that!

O-week(s) have been pretty crazy, went to see midnight youth who were pretty good and Katchafire who were FANTASTIC. Have consumed a lot of alcohol the past couple of weeks and I seem to be paying for it now! So i'm on a bit of a detox at the moment, lots of water and lots of vege haha. Oh! I also went to a foam party:
It got very very messy towards the end of the night haha. It was fun but I think i've fufilled my foam party quota for this lifetime anyway!
So that's all i've been up to at present, will finish with some photos I took on my trip to the beach last sunday (it was heavenly) yay for the north shore! Bye for now!
