am not happy.
i never cared much about my grades
or at least i thought i didnt
but seriously doing shittily does kinda like really suck like hell.
okay so maybe is somehow linked to the fact that its the first time in a bit that this has happened
but argh.
its just to think for all the effort we put in, we would have deserved something more decent.
like you seriously dont just throw three clueless people out into the ocean without directions
they''d most likely just end up helping each other to drown.
and honestly the instructions "produce a 1min30sec" news clip seriously does sound vague
and the entire issue of news has been so hotly debated over that i am sure even you are starting to question
"what really is news."
also, one does not send out an email the night before an assignment is due to tell you that you need to change your story angle and need more interviews and images.
simply because, it would be impossible to complete in the span of a single day!
in the evening no less.
gahh she is infuirating i swear.
a few things to take into consideration.
1) i do not hold a press pass.
as such i would not be allowed to film at various places or to interview any tom dick and harry i would like to speak to.
2) we are students.
as much as you would like to run the course like a press room, we are unable to work on a 24hour deadline or even less to meet the next broadcast.
simply because while being a BJ is your full time job, we have something called classes to attend.
and there is the limitation of transportation and contacts which we have no access to.
3) we are here to learn and be taught.
i know that learning by doing is a great method of teaching
but seriously when its at the expense of my grades and results and much effort time and confusion
i highly doubt that that is one price i am willing to pay.
ARGH.
pissed.
*update
to get back three grades on one day and realise that you failed all
its just fucking depressing.
FUCKING hell.
it just sucks cos i actually put effort into the damn thing.
