Third day into the semester - a good a place as any to begin.
I've never experienced the passing of time in quite the same way as I have in these past few days. The hours go by blazingly fast and yet, looking at a calendar, the days go by at a snail's pace. One's perception of time is well and truly a "fickle mistress".
On a more technical note - seems this year there are a lot more student in the course groups than expected which is causing headache for both students trying to take courses and for lecturers (twice now I've heard a lecturer say they have no idea what is actually going to happen). At first (which was only a few days ago) I went in intending to take quite a few more ECTS that is strictly necessary but at this point it seems that plan won't work as simply too many people have singed up to a few courses that will remain unnamed. My sympathies to a few Open University student who tried their hardest to get into a few courses and later transfer to a program - I've heard tell of their struggles and I can only say I am doubly glad to have gotten into a program.
Perhaps one of my biggest hopes in the coming months and years is to have an opportunity to go on foreign exchange. I would rather dream big and not make it than not dream at all.
