Once again the festive period is nearing, but in my experience it's comletely different from what I've been used to over the years. For one thing, there isn't much time for getting yourself into the festive spirit, with all the deadlines and what not. However I should not complain - with the portfolio reviews being cancelled due to Univeristy closure over heavy snowfall - I have plenty of time to get everything done.
Another thing that has changed is the christmas present list - nope, no new shoes or clothes vouchers and heaps of chocolate. The top of my wish list this year is taken up by a new digital camera ( my old one barely works) so I can record my work as the course progresses. Number one spot is followed by a new clutch pencil and a roll of detail paper - these are quite pricey so I've been waiting for the perfect excuse for someone else to pay for them (Christmas).
I'm just quietly hoping that we won't have much homework over the winter break, as I'm planning to work the whole time to actually have money to live off - it turns out that university life is much more expensive than I anticipated. So roll on Christmas, and let's hope that Santa is good to me.
