Blegh
You probably think that the title of this blog is quite clever or is incredibly apt for the content that is contained within.
Maybe not.
I'll let you in on a little secret: At the time of typing this, it has no title. Because there is so much I want to put in this blog, that it came down to either writing a decent blog or thinking of a title.
That's just how exhausted I am.
Not a good note to start on, I know, so let's try to drag this blog out of the doldrums :)
Right.
Well I'm back at Uni now which is settling in nicely to its new campus in Port Melbourne. It's very nice. They still have shit Macs, and by that I mean that they are old and slow, but at least the campus is nicer than it was. I've managed to produce a couple of pieces of good art already all the while I've been making some good friends. I'm so highly strung at the moment.
(And here we go, right back into the doldrums) Work has really turned to shit with a new manager having been appointed last month that has limited packaging experience. He has been riding everyone really hard, throwing his weight around getting people to do things his way before analysing the way the factory works.
I'm starting to consider whether Uni is such a good idea. I mean I love going because apart from filling the gaps in my knowledge I get to socialise with like-minded people and I get to network. Something I really don't get to do at work. The problem is that I don't think I can sustain this lifestyle for very much longer.
I hate this. I love Uni, but I can't quit my job because I also love to live. I suppose one could argue that I am not in fact living - I'm just being alive. I don't want to quit Uni either, because I believe that I am receiving serious benefits by being there. Just by being around other young designers is improving my work. I feel good hanging around these people. But unfortunately I don't make money by being there, in fact it costs me money to attend. If I were to win Tattslotto, I would quit my job and go to uni full time.
I'm a little too distracted to blog about anything else at the moment. Everything I have to do is getting me down :P I'll blog more soon.
Maybe not.
