...after months of not doing much, Uni is like that terrible KFC ad - a slap in the face. I'm back to eating out of lunch-boxes and miniature snack packs, endless waiting for my next class to start and the horrible squish of train journeys in the morning and people smoking in my face all the time.

The subjects are okay, I like photography (duh) and Digital Design, which is learning how to use Illustrator and then Photoshop. For DD we're making chess pieces out of paper so we have to design these pieces - I'm making two opposing sides of like a death metal goth punk band and a cheesy boy band I thought it was funny anyway, I don't care if you don't.

What I'm not so hot on is Design Studio, where we collect rubbish and pin in on the back wall to 'map the area in a different way', use pictures of surroundings (read: absolutely nothing like trees and rubbish bins) to 'express' these words then make a montage, and eventually go on to writing haikus and making shadow puppet animations. I'm NOT kidding.

I like feeling like I'm doing something constructive, like honing my skills or creating something I'm very passionate about, so when it comes to being like arty for the sake of artfagging it up it seems a bit ridiculous to me. Well as Oscar Wilde said, art for art's sake right? Hmm.

Also, Form and Structure involves using Indesign which makes me want to chop off my fingers, pan fry them in a light sauce and then eat them so I have to survive the rest of my life being a cabaret act somewhere playing piano with my fucking toes. That pretty much sums it up.

So, I have a whole heap of work to get done because I'm shooting tomorrow (with a male model, which hardly ever happens ) and then me and Lou are polymer claying it up on Thursday, and then there's that Asylum shoot Saturday, which is going to be awesome..

I'm too fucking sleepy for this. I've eaten too much today, but it was mainly tofu so I'm counting it as a win. If I manage to get through this semester and do well I'll be very proud of myself Fingers crossed!

I need to pee now. Over and out. *commando crawls to toilet*
