Christmas & New year

Back at last in my little uni room. The first thing I did when I got in was to rearange all of the furniture. I moved my bed to the back wall and my desk to the side so now the open square floor makes the room look much bigger, so I'm happy.

Christmas and new year was very good as usual, I got myself a hard drive for christmas, which I can now use instead of using my mp3 player for storage and movabilty data. My course (Multimedia) requires lots of storge space which the university can't always provide, so im really glad I got an upgrade. What with the files being huge and all (avi formats, grr). As usual, the drinking persisted and not a great deal of work got done, but I did do a few bits and bobs through the holidays. One of which was to explore our next module -> identities!

Currently I am a little confused about this topic. I don't quite get what the aim of the whole thing is. We were asked to make an avatar like creation, a second self, and interact online. One program we were suggested to use was second life. To be completely honest I need to have a better understanding before I go out and play with it, I just need to read more about this topic and it should make sense.

Anywho, time to go, I'm off to the cinema to see the golden compass with flat mates I think. After having my review (which was actually really helpful, i found what i was doing wrong) i think i might critically assess this film. ^_^
