James Blunt, Blunt Magazine, blunt knife and week 1’s blunt lecture/unlecture. Look lets be honest as soon as i walked out of that room i had forgotten most of what Adrian had said… such a shame. A few things however remained imbedded in my mind; symposium and “you are in the wrong course.”
1. Symposiiiiium !
Cool was the first thought then the second was it would be like Comic Con and third was how i wish i was at Comic Con.. Personally, i’m not quite sure what my view on the whole symposium thing is. It’ll definitely make lectures/unlectures different but in a good or bad way? Pros : interactive, fun, different. Cons: that shit will get messy, will questions be relevant? will i dare speak..? We will just have to wait and see! I’m excited… yes for a lecture/unlecture (i’m going to have to choose which it is soon)
2. “You are in the wrong course.”
Am i? I may be. I sure hope not but admittedly there have been a few iffy moments and betrayal has crossed my mind as it wandered to prof comm and journalism. For the first time in a while i actually felt like i was being lectured,nagged and bluntly told to piss off. That’s just the negatives though, the positive was that Adrian reinforced the need to be pro-active, motivated and well be a young adult. In order to successfully navigate this course and degree there has to be a certain level of commitment. Along with hard work and willingness to want to know more (how not what) this course can be used as a gateway to greater things? That being said i am in the right course ?
