So University Strikes Back [Daniel]

Well my first week of University is officially over and dusted (much like my aforementioned tutoring job eeeep!) with me sitting next to a slowly dying fire, head rolled back in a position of exhaustion. The weight of knowledge (or much more likely morning runs) is just soo much upon my untainted holiday brain. But I’ll persist, mainly because I know after this post I have another to do somewhere else (yah I know spreading out, weird huh), saxophone and then shifting through a bunch of short stories to find something suitable for tomorrow’s final date of submission for…….. ABOVE WATER writing competition.

So if there are any budding writers out there hoping for a chance to flaunt their stuff, here’s one of many chances to see if your story is actually good/rings true for whoever is judging. Anyways I need to have something for tomorrow… and so far……. huff* it looks like I’ll have to put a bit of work in to be happy with any submission I give to the Farrago people that run the show.

Speaking of shows I’ve been presenting the news on Syn FM which has been an exciting experience… especially today after I got tongue twisted from Japanese and general tiredness. I managed not to make too many mistakes on words and to find some interesting stories (even though I was short on time) and in the end it worked out reasonably well.

And…. university seems much the same as it always has been, readings, lectures, tutorials and more readings. I must say though Story, Ideas and Meaning (I think it is) is a really good education/broad arts subject that deals with a wide variety of mediums in which story is presented in. And to boot it’s interesting, so I’m very happy that I’ve found a good breadth subject (as from the rumors that I’ve heard from education some subjects can be a bit trying).

Anyways exhausted beyond my 2nd year of uni years, I’ll be off to do some more stuff!

Stay updated for more coherent and exciting adventures of Dan.
Cya,
