Yeah, it's so infectious! I was just out the back having a spliff there, and it was looping in my head. Damn you Jordan!

I'm going to plug you some of The Roots as you seem to be in the mood for hip-hop. Best hip-hop group around for me, so damn good. It's a combination of Blackthought and Malik B being amazing MC's, and Questlove with the live drums giving the whole sound this smooth groove. They're a proper hip-hop band, so musically gifted.

I've just gone back to my old forum and posted a few things.

It's like re-visiting a village I used to live in whilst a kid before migrating to the big city. It's really strange.

On the DLR. Going past East India always reminds me of the time I pissed on the platform, probably with an audience in the buildings adding up to around 100 odd people.

Completely sober, nearly pissed my pants.

You're on a DLR? Where are you located at? I ride the DLR pretty often too.

nah man. nothing like that. I just assumed that if you didn't want to do journalism at uni then you could've easily changed to another degree with the help of a guidance teacher. I figured you were doing a degree you had no interest in. To be fair, I know a few folk who are doing freelance writing/journalism and it's working out great for them.

Degrees are largely irrelevant to what you might find yourself doing post university. All it shows is that you've got the discipline to hunker down and work, IMO. Go and find something you want to do.

Disclaimer, I don't have a degree.

yeah i know, shamefully i came to that conclusion in my third year so there wasn't much point dropping out and frankly not sure if i really wanna bother with higher education anymore.

freelance journalism requires you to have free or prepared to work for free for awhile (unless you got those contacts). we've just come back to the country and i've got hte pressure on the land on my feet running as we need the money to be able afford rent, food, furniture etc. i'll rethink career stuff later on but at the moment i need to ideally find a job that pays above min wage. fast.

Ha, you did exactly the same as me, although I guess you at least got your degree rather than being a dropout like myself. I think that journalism courses are designed to not make you want to be a journalist any more. All the enthusiasm you have at the start is very quickly beaten out of you, it sucks. And now I run exams at a posh school, fuck it. At least you got some education and the ability to think a little clearer than before, that was worth it.
