A proper Uni??

It looks like thanks to the bad rankings in the last couple of years Aber is trying to become a better uni. Which means a lot of work for me... At least it sounds interesting ;) My timetable is fuller than ever... and I have lots of journals to read, conduct research in English and in French plus do all the little French homeworks... sounds fun... and exhausting.

Anyway this semester my timetable looks like this:

Monday

• Oral class at 10, for which we have loads of articles to read... like freaking 7 at a time and they're not small news nippets oh no, full on articles... And in the first class I opened my mouth totally voluntarily :) Talked about the strikes in Corsica. The second class I finally spoke as well, the teacher was already like oh gosh yes thank god I didn't have to ask you :P We get a mark each lesson and obvs if you don't say anything you get a zero...
• French travel literature at 12, the hardest of the two optional modules. The one with a 2000 word essay. the on with 2 10-minute presentations about some book (17-19.th century). The one which for every class you have to critically analyse a text and then we discuss it in class. The one where I haven't yet said a word in... Participation is being assessed... crap...
• Translation at 4, which seems really really hard this year but luckily there were a couple of others in my group who didn't know how to translate the text either, so I'm not the only stupido :)

Tuesday

• Listening at 10 every other week :) Pretty much the same as previous years.
• Sustainable Tourism at 4 for 2 hours in the other campus. I expect to be fit after this year ;) 

Wednesday

• Freedom!!!! a couple of field visits with the tourism lecture are on Wednesday.

Thursday

• 9AM other campus, dissertation module, please kill me now! Turns out this year we get to choose our own supervisors depending on the subject we do our diss on. And they made a video introducing themselves :D The first deadline by which you have to practically know everything is in a week already and by now some of the supervisors have filled their student quota... What do I do?????????
• Grammar at 3, in the first class she already gave us conjugations to do... fail... hard... and she explained the enormous amount of homework as well... yippiiii

Friday

• Tourism seminar at 9 in which we each have to 

1. Review a journal article
2. Critically discuss another article
3. Judge the reviews and discussions of two other students

What have I gotten myself into?

Ttyl ;)

Jazzz...
