I started university last week and there’s no wifi in my flat (currently).
Basically, the whole goal of our orientation week is to improve the image of our uni and the officials are mostly just celebrating themselves while most of the students are far less impressed.We’re working in interdisciplinary groups to develop campaigns about social challenges arising from diversity (oh so amazing, as I said, the officials are pros at self-adulation) and it’s actually somewhat interesting. I was really frustrated at first, but as it turns out, there’s some super ambitious students in my group, which means I get the chance to be more of an observer, making critical remarks, writing texts and training the others in performing them. That part is fun actually, although 10+ hours of uni each day are draining, but it will probably get better.
So, that’s probably the start of that oh-so-great new part of my life.
We’ll see how this turns out.
