That's like when we had to write either a political speech in the style of the party of your choosing, a newspaper editorial or a party manifesto for Political Analysis :thumbsdown:

Nah thats fine, got that all sorted out. It was during doing that, that I discovered the Politics department lost my change of course form and never processed it (I know they had it because I was there when they were photocopying the original) so they still think I'm doing IR. Even though I'm listed as His/Pol in the History department and at the central registry.

So now they want me to go through all the crap of getting another one signed, which I can't be arsed to do. So i'm going to see if I can just get a photocopy of the one the History department has, because this is ridiculous.

I have the most stupid assignment I've ever seen.

Write a speech in the style of Marx addressing a crowd. Yeah, write a speech. It's creative ******* writing.

What a joke. And that's a marked part of my DEGREE?!? Writing a speech.

What a joke.




Actually embarrassing.

Wow. That is lame. I thought having to interview a native Catalan speaker was lame. But this is way lamer.

I feel for you :console:

I had that when I switched from IR to Pol. It didn't go through, then I got a telephone call from Jasmine while I was at WORK telling me I wasn't doing the right modules, I couldn't continue with my course blah blah I was like WTF? :lolwut:

Anyway what do you guys think of my assignment? ^^^ You'll be doing it next year lmao.

I thought that. However my teacher didn't seem to think it would be difficult - luckily she knew someone who agreed to be interviewed otherwise I'd have been meeting up with creeps from Gumtree.

I told you! You could have just done my lecturer, she's lovely, and native Catalonian or whatever the word is. She writes loads of books about the place.

I ended up interviewing one of the ERASMUS students from Barcelona. She was really nice, spoke slowly, the only thing is I now cant understand her when I play the recording back :frown:
Did anyone see what happened outside QMUL at around 14:30; The ambulance crew are working on a guy down a side road, and two police cars jsut turned up. They've been at it for about twenty minutes now.

I imagine this will only serve to compound the view of my morbid curiosity.:s-smilie:
And now a van too.

Well, I'll probably go back to lying in bed face down. Need. Sleep.

What're you up to eh?
I'm spending my evening packing. Moving into the drinking society's house tomorrow...

Lets put it this way, I'm not looking forwards to it! :frown: This is why I want to avoid MPT, I want to do International Security, Globalization, Terorrism etc etc not writing speeches in the style of Marx. Is this true that Y2 essays are 3,000 words aswell? someone told me that in my Intro to Pol seminar today.

Stay at home watch some TV and start work on an essay I guess. Once I get this History one done I don't have any due until March :woo: I'm shattered so I can't be bothered to go out tonight, someone set off the fire alarm in my flat this morning at 2.30am by literally setting it alight, so I got barely any sleep this morning. Also whoever did it hasn't admitted to it yet (as far as I know) so the whole flat is under investigation. Good Times...

Ah, still bad enough, I really had to pad out my last Intro to Pol essay with so much needless citation and quotation to even make the word count :frown:

Yeah, and then they tell you you have too many quotes or they're too long. :rolleyes:
