January 2nd 2012 - Revision

I can honestly say I sometimes wonder why I decided to go to University for 3 years of my life when I don't have the motivation nor the incling to revise for exams. I know that if I put my mind to it I'd be able to achieve marks, but how can I possibly do that when there are things such as television, facebook and Edward Cullen distracting me (I suppose that counts as revision as having to read the Twilight book for exam). From talking with friends who are at University themselves, it seems that the majority of students simply go to University as they're afraid of entering the big bad world of employment and feel that this three years will be a journey of self discovery, where they meet their true love, become part of a cool group of friends and realise that they have the creative flair of Shakespeare hidden deep inside. Unfortunately from being at University I have learnt the following thing - 1) I am very lazy and procrasinate far too much *looks out window for 10 minutes staring at a leaf* 2) I am not inspired by poets nor authors the way an English degree student should be - the poetic words of Heny don't make me want to shed a single tear and frollock through a meadow, they simply make me angry and want to punch him in the face for being so utterly boring and depressing 3) I have realised that I may have a problem, as when I read anything sexual in a book it automatically draws my attention...which nothing else really does and is followed by either a ''yeoooo'' under my breath or a ''you dirty bitch'' and finally 4) English students are some of the most pompous people I have ever met in my life - just because you know four different ways of describing the tone of a book doesn't mean you are the shit. My sinister approach to education leaves me contemplating why on earth I want to be a teacher - secretly I'd love to take my acting and dancing career further than Belfast, but my accent and lack of arrogance leaves me stuck behind my books, until the day that an agent calls to my door and tells me that I'm staring in the next big film alongside Bradley Cooper and Kristen Stewart....awhhhh one can only dream. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBHBWVV0Ut4&list=FLk-28EONBfKfE1GqOM9bd4Q&index=19&feature=plpp_video
