School’s been in session over two months, and the varsity soccer season has risen, and been laid to rest once more. Soccer was an experience both negative and positive. I won’t dive too far into it, as I will be writing an in-depth article about it, but it was a worthwhile endeavor.
School has been a mixed experience as well. My Journalism course has been some of what I was expecting upon entering, but vastly different in some ways as well. Sadly, most of the differences have been negative ones. I was expecting a bit higher-level learning in many cases so far, and the program has not delivered. The program itself should not be crucified for that, as it is aimed at people coming right out of high school. My time at university has made me over-educated for some areas of the program, although there is a lot of value to be gained from the writing component of the course for sure.
Overall, time has found a way to crawl at a slow pace lately. It’s probably related to the rocky week I had at school, and the lingering effects of illness I’m still feeling. Either way, I am looking forward to increasing my writing output next week, and trying to pull out of this nose-dive. Wish me luck!
