  hey kiddies... WHOA el quieto on the bloggo. Well, I started tafe today and boy oh boy, I really don't think I was quite ready for it.
I mean I was greatly looking forward to being able to use my brain again to some capacity but I don't think I was quite prepared for all those 'deadlines' and 'research' and 'homework' and 'assessments' .... you see I've grown accustomed to using my noggan only when I kinda feel up to it and when there's no pressure from anybody else so this is a bit of a shock to the system. Plus to my dismay, it was nothing like SCHOOL OF ROCK and Jack Black certainly did not make an appearance, that doesn't mean that there wasn't an array of very similarly bitter, overweight failed musicians for lecturers.
The students themselves generally are surprisingly very cool. There are however a small group of blonde hair, acrylic nails 'I work at metros' 18 year olds which the rest of the class have made a silent pact to ignore. The rest actually have some pretty substantial rock-cred and are also pretty funny dudes. During the initial 'tell us who you are and what are you doing here rounds', one of them actually had the guts to say 'Well, I wanted to be a rock star, but I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna be, so I'd really just like to hang around them' which is of course why everybody was there but didn't have the balls to admit it.
Anyways, got a feeling its gonna be a funny year with this mob, it should be equally funny seeing how I go academically.
