Slogging it out.
I've been so busy lately, I feel like I've haven't had a chance to sit down and catch my breath. After being on holidays for 3 months now I am slowly trying to get back into studying mode at Uni.
This semester I am doing some really hard and boring units, and many people in my degree (all 11 of us) are thinking about dropping a unit and only doing 3 this semester. Which means at the end of it they'll proberly be doing another 6 months at the end of the degree, and whilst that sounds like a good idea as it would be easier to keep your average up, I do want to graduate as soon as possible. Hey I'm not getting any younger... As I am going now I'll be about almost 24 when I graduate!
Whats so hard about this semester I hear you ask? Well this semester I am doing Foundations of software engineering, Database and systems design, Computer graphics programming and the only one that is fun is: 3D modelling. I don't come from a computer science background, so you can imagine how hard and boring this is going to be for me. Even the computer nerds this semester don't seem that friendly.
So I've decided I'm gonna keep doing my 4 units - I've done it before, I know I can do it again. As well as working, uni, and trying to fit some sort of social life in, it just means I'm gonna have to work pretty hard this semester.
