The Miseducation Of John Robinson...

For the past few months I’ve been thinking about returning to college to finish off my work, last week I decided to stop thinking about it and to just do it. Nothing was going to stop me. When I got off the bus I pressed the button on the crossing to get to the college, I decided I couldn’t be bothered waiting and made a run for it across the road, when I got to the other side of the road the lights had turned red and one car was already stopped, just as I stepped onto the pavement I heard a bang, a transit van had hit the back of this car pushing it forwards over the crossing, maybe this was a bad omen, or maybe I should just stop stupid and get on with things.

I got to the door of the art block, the code on the door had changed so I waited for someone to come along and open it, after 10 minutes of waiting, Larrie - my tutor came along and pushed it open, it wasn’t locked after all that. Two other former students were there too that day so it seemed like a bit of a reunion, even though I don’t know them that well. Larrie said it would be ok for me to come back and that my days would be Mondays and Fridays now.

I officially went back to college on Friday, it was good to see all the other students again, it felt like I had never left. I’m not going to get myself in the same mess as I did last time now though, I need to stay focused (no pun intended) and be more organised. Here’s my reason why…

Mondays
Digital imaging 9 - 11
Photography 11 - 4
Web design 4 - 6

Fridays
Contextual studies 9 - 11:15
Photography 11:15 - 4:30

I’ve already done all my contextual studies work so that shortens my Fridays, if I finish my web design then I can finish at 4 on a Monday, and my digital imaging is already half finished, which just leaves the photography in the studio which can be done within a week. By shortening my timetable it will give me more days at home to sleep.

…Did I say sleep? I meant do my written work

Oh, ok then, maybe both.
