Easiest would be something your passionate about. Broader topics (which are a good thing) would be music, movies/tv, sport (footy!), games, and food. All should be relatively easy to find stuff about and you can just find what you love in one of those topics and write about it. I've written about footy and basketball before and found it easy because I was so passionate about the topics already. Music I'm finding a bit harder because I'm trying to focus on new music and it's usually not something I'm already in love with. Hope that was somewhat helpful.

Cheers Huggy!

I've had a few ideas, I guess I'm a bit thrown since some of the people in my class have done similar things.

Ones being done are like top 3s (films, tv shows etc), a daily ramble, etc.

I'm thinking of going with things that grind my (or others) gears.

This has probably been mentioned previously but I am bringing it up again.

LECTURERS WHO TAKE FOR-FREAKING-EVER TO MARK ASSIGNMENTS >:( >:(

I can't believe it is week 8 and out of my 4 subjects, I know my mark for ONE piece of assessment so far.

THIS! flower!

And also when you're just chasing a simple one word answer to a question so you hit up your lecturer via email only for them to come ask you in person... NO MATE, I LIVE AND HOUR AND A HALF FROM UNI. ANSWER ME ON THE EMAIL BECAUSE I'M NOT TRAVELLING FOR 3 HOURS COMING ALL THE WAY IN FOR A 6 SECOND CONVERSATION.
Kind of the reverse happened with me.

I sent an email because I didn't want to go in. So I sat here at home, wrote a pretty lengthy email, explaining the situation and so on and so forth. It ended up being like roughly three 6-line paragraphs or thereabouts. I expected a reply detailing how things would pan out, but all I got was literally a one word question in reply...

I replied with a follow up email, again with a bit of detail because the situation was still unresolved and I was too busy with other things to go in and explain face-to-face. That email was at start of Good Friday week, still haven't had a reply. Sent another one after the Easter break and that has been replied either...
Nige you have no idea, my lecturer is the king of one word replies!

is anybody thinking of doing overseas study/study tours?

I'm hoping that when I'm a couple of years into my degree (Curently doing Yr 12, so three years away) I hope to do a semester or something over in England. Easier going there that way than taking a gap year next year and visiting then. :)

Also, decided to do my next four blogs on memes in a series titled "What does that even meme?"

Got a set idea for my social media marketing campaign as well now.  ;D
