The Other Side...: Back to School.

Today was my first day of school at Bond Uni and let me be the first to tell you this is gonna be a good semester.

Class #1...Image and Photography, talked about cameras and had the professor adjust my settings for optimal shooting....half hr later were done. After class I met some Aussie girl named Krystal. She's a Gold Coast local, super nice chick, and works right down the street at this place called Dracula's, its like a bar/restaurant/themed show. Definitely another good person to go experience this foreign place with. Going out with people who live here has made this trip be so true to Australian culture, a thing that so many people miss out on. So far all the Aussies I've met have been the most down to earth people ever....people back home could learn a lot from the lifestyle out here.

Class numero dos, Human Resource Management, your typical human resource class, discussed some HR management topics and did a group assignment regarding how skewed the US government is, and how HRM could help to improve it internally....go figure. Met three real straight kids though, all from different countries; England, OZ, and Germany...gotta keep building that network.

After grabbing some lunch with my buddy Will, I went to a meeting with my advisor and discussed probably the best possible thing I could do while over here...an unpaid internship for my buddy Greg who owns Motion Media, http://motionmedia.com.au/, but would receive credit for it, as it it was a class....hmm...shoot surfing on the beach for class credit, i don't know about that....not!

Oh look, time for my last class and what do we have here....Image and photography lab..."how to use Photoshop." Score. Not a bad way to spend my first 10 hours on campus.

Unfortunately, I had to come home to some shit stolen from me, and of all people... by one of my roommates. Its been handled for the moment, but you don't cross one of your boys...especially me. You get one chance with me (Jeff can vouch for that)...my only piece of advise for the future is don't fuck that up. I'm a little lost right now in terms of what needs to be my next move...I don't doubt I'll figure it out. Sleeping on it for sure.

Few pics taken today...hopefully there will be an increase in the quality of my pictures with this class I'm taking...as for now, this is what you gotta live with.
