I'm officially half way through my course and I clearly have not enjoyed the last 6 months of it at all. I feel as if I've been paying thirty thousand for a simple piece of paper that basically states that I am a qualified media savvy person. The last few months have consisted of me not at all excited to go to school. I've literally rolled out of bed and rolled back in and just simply hating on all the work that I've done.
Normally I am a very organised student with a timetable to keep me in order, but this year has started off with me just simply starting my assignments merely four hours before the due date and time on many occasions. It doesn't help that the government has decided to cut down on the costs for university education whereby many of my subjects that were considered good but too expensive to run have been cut and I am left with theory work. I did media for the pure enjoyment of hands on activities and 25% theory work. I am simply wracking my brain this year learning media terms that simply do not comply to me in any relative interest or form. Fair enough, maybe one day I will be teaching these subjects like I had hoped too but I didn't expect to be "forced" to study these compulsory subjects.
Today I am at university for a pointless two hours sitting in the foyer of the humanities building, taking photos of myself on my iphone waiting to go into the edit suites to waste another five hours doing nothing. I should be writing up the last 5 posts for my blog entries that are due on Friday. But here I am writing this post and redesigning my logo. I am going to fall asleep today and my body is strained.
I'm not sure if I want to finish this course anymore. If these subjects continue to be boring and all theory related, I think I might find myself transferring to another uni to finish my course. Any suggestions?
