tut tut

the complaints are already plentiful about the state of newi.
1) we're all still intermingled as design communications.
2) the clean/tidy/computer studio only has 4 (or 6 if you're lucky) reachable mains sockets.
3) mac:student ratio too low for the maya lessons.
4) technicians wiping the hard drives of machines we have work on without warning. (they forgot to wipe them over the hols, so today when a student found the machine wouldn't let him save his line-test the technician took 5 mins to decide to wipe all hard drives there and then. we were given briefs on monday to be complete for next monday. many who thought their work was complete and ready for the review on monday will now have to re-do that work)
5) why can't those who live more than 2 miles away get free buses like colleges have or even low rate university buses like liverpool and covenrty have?

no matter how many complaints are made, i'm here now and i'm not giving up, despite the inadequacies.
*i made it to the 2nd year! yay!!!*

wow, so soon!

it's september already, woooooooooo.
spooky :P

not long now and i shall be once more invading newi, yay!

ben's been chatting to dave on msn and aparently he can't wait for uni to start again so he can see us all again. well, everyone here does miss ben, life is so much quieter without him around.

i also miss my group.
yay for year 2!

jen's been complaining that only her, dave and nick are going to london this year because they didn't go last year. she doesn't think it'll be as much fun being a small group. personally, the trip was ok, i enjoyed seeing what goes on on a professional level, it's the write up afterwards i didn't like.
paperwork is dull >:P
(though, i like research, hmmm...)

one of my homework tasks has been character development. i've been having fun with the hamster of doom, i just need to come up with some good ideas for a few other characters. i've been doing some experimenting, but so far nothing is grabbing me quite like the hamster. though the hamster concept has been with me for many, many years now. oh, well. i'm sure i'll find something that works.

i like the idea of including a dragon, i just need to find a suitable style, one very different from the scruff monster.

i quite like the dnd style of dragons, i just need to find a way to simplify that design, yet not chibify it.

i'm sure, whilst i'm on this course i'll find a style i like.

*take care*
