Essays….presentations…..publications….tests…..=life five weeks ago.
Now it is time to get back into the process of study. No more sleep ins. No more bumming around. No more partying….whoops did I say that? Partying never stops in student life, right?
So far being back has been a bit of a killer. The whole commuting thing from the flat by the beach to suburbia is a bit of a mission.
Made the first class; Web Media. Web Media is interesting as it has given me a new perspective on blogs. I for one have never really been much of a web surfer or internet fanatic; it is something that tests my patients!
However, I was reading part of Mark Briggs book where he states that if you want to learn how to do something, you will be able to achieve it. So I am saying that I want to learn the ways of the web, how to be creative and most importantly make life in cyber space a little easier and efficient. Good things take time; a little frustrating however but life was never meant to be easy. If it was, I think there would be an element of complacency as there would be nothing around challenging people resulting in the transforming and changing of ones life.
“Change is inevitable. Progress is optional. The future is now.” – Mark Briggs

I understand what you mean about web media class changing perspectives on blogs.
I'm still struggling with it but I see the value of them now.
Great to see that you're going into this with an open mind. I really like what Janet Murray says about this:
…in a participatory medium, immersion implies learning to swim, to do the things that the new environment makes possible.
You just have to jump in, relax and... you'll float!
