Sunshine and Assignment deadlines...

The sun rays warm my skin at 20 degrees. Why is it all of a sudden sunny and bright now? I'm just so tempted now to go out and play footy with my mates. But this month of May is the busiest month for every University student in the UK. Its like i'm free for 2-3 months then suddenly KAPOW!! Assignments galore!

I've got a 10 minute documentary to shoot edit and write about, a 2000 word feature article and a 20 page magazine to produce which includes an extensive plan. OK its just three assignment but 2 of these are BIG. Also when your working in groups its just hard to rely on other people. I HATE relying on other people. There you go i said it. If there's one thing I've learnt in my university experience so far, its that you should never rely on someone to get something done. You have to go out and do it yourself!

But i guess working with people who you don't really like working with (not that i don't like working with my group :D ) does bring out the best in you. I've noticed this myself. I'm a lot more patient and persevering than i was last year, where i would try an get everything done myself. Trust is a key thing in teamwork and if that's not there the whole team will break apart, so i'm beginning to trust people more now.
