woowoo!
I've typing in beautiful weather after a 15 hour sleep. Hello I was totally repaying my sleep debt from 13 weeks ok?! For one hour a week, that's not even enough la! (Darn should have slept longer)
And so I have been in a jolly good mood since last night because yesterday I finally handed in the last of all my assignments. Woo! A full 13 weeks of: 7 videos (GOSH DID I REALLY DO THAT?!) and 9 written assignments, 1 focus group and 1 survey (the construction of, not the doing). Oh man those figures totally do injustice to the amount of work they hide behind their innocent exteriors. Pfft.
Yesterday we happily had dinner and even dessert (yummy choc sundae and fries!), macham like the semester's over already. Ok ok I know my first paper is in 4 days and ok I know I know I haven't started studying! But oh man throw that to the wind for a while cos this feeling is just unbeliveable: I've finished all my assignments for this sem! Whoa this is so surreal, can??!!??!
(I promise I'll get down to studying real soon! Ok la no choice actually)
But before that someone deserves a worthy mention. Someone I see every Thursday, someone who has definitely definitely won me over with his passion. He is a living inspiration man.
The lecturer, of course. (ss! who were you thinking of?!) Gosh I'm actually sad that his module has ended. He has imparted his love of journalism to us, and his sincere desire to change the world is so apparent every time he speaks.
"I hope you will continue reading what you have liked," he said in his ending speech. Ohhhhhhhh maaaaannnnnn he's like the smiling old grandpapa that buys ice cream for every kid on the street. (Oh yes did I mention he bought all of us mcdonald's just because he had a make-up lecturer that lasted into the night?)
Sigh. Actually at the beginning of this semester I was on the verge of dropping this module because well, I wasn't interested in journalism. But thanks to him, thanks to mdm tough-love, and thanks to my two other heroes who probably don't even know my name, I think I have found a new interest in life.
I'm so curious how that younger version of the lecturer will turn out. This gives me incentive to read the papers religiously eh. ;)
I can't wait for the exams to end so I can get on with my life. The world is an oyster, y'all!
This sem, I've achieved so much more outside the curriculum.
I wouldn't choose it another way, really.
