Grim times as a student

I know for a fact my parents think uni has been a breeze, and that it could all be done in a year or two and not over 3 years, and although I agree to some extent, daaaayuuum final year is rough. In my first and second year, I had loads of time to find things to do to occupy my time, my attendance was shocking, yet I still passed. Final year I'm realising there really isn't much time to find things to do to occupy my spare time, I'm grateful for spare time just to chill out with a peppermint tea (I'm a badman!)
Since I went to the Quays for a look around, I haven't had a chance to see what's been going on there. I have however been reading up on the exciting developments involving the relocation of the BBC to MediaCityUK, which's ball- if all goes to plan- begins to roll this year! This is going to be huge and as a graduating student in advertising, the prospect of hundreds of new jobs in the media is a real help to inspire me to crack on with this dissertation and so on (ergh!). But fingers crossed we all will get the grades we want, and who knows, you could statues of us around MediaCityUK in years to come. Joseph's column has a nice ring to it?

Peace out y'aaaall
