Your Degree Needs You!

Heavy Weight Champion Of The World - Reverend & The Makers

A song about how future plans don't come true and we end up joining the rat race, right as we're in the midst of revising to ensure our futures are bright and we excel academically, right so we can - if all goes well - grow up and do what we want. Which is fine, as long as we really want what it is that we think we want.

This is Shane infront of the Fort's Bro-gress board. It tracks what we've revised and how many days until we're screwed in the middle of man's greatest battle against examinations.

Eve has a poster in her room that says 'Enjoy The Little Things In Life.... For One Day You'll Look Back And Realise They Were The Big Things.' I'm only too sure that revising in the Fort with everyone is going to be one of those moments.

D-minus-1 Day... The 'D' standing for dynamics: The day before our test on the Dynamics of Vibrating Systems, where nothing other than Dynamics gets revised. I can hardly wait!

Looking back at this picture I thought it perhaps needed cropping to bring Shane more in to perspective, but now I actually like how the board dwarfs him as it suggests the information overwhelming him. A nice metaphor, kinda.
