Beginning to pack my bags so I can move back home for the summer on Weds or Thurs. Can't believe it. This first (academic) year at uni has gone so fast!
One good thing is, I'm not going to be living in Birmingham for a while. It's such a dump.

I will be back in September for re-sits. I have fucked one subject completely. Didn't the the coursework as I thought it was worth about 10%, turns out it was worth 50% and the answers to the questions were in the back of a book. D'oh. Also couldn't do the exam as it was some crazy maths that I just can't do. Might have failed my maths module too. But I think that I can fail 2 subjects and still continue to next year. Better do some studying tomorrow

Must be even more crazy for you. No more Uni!?! I've been advised to stay on and do some postgrad stuff just so I can stay at uni for ages... I'd love to do that

If I dont get a job I might consider a Post Grad, would apply at the RCA but I think its more of a purist drawing course...

This is my first year. We have sooo many different subjects to learn. It is quite confusing trying to remember it all. Especially when quite a bit of it is stuff you don't want to know... Once I'm in my second year things get a bit more specialist and I only do about 6 modules over the whole year
