Swansea Open Day

Went up to Swansea University yesterday with Mark for and open day. Realised i had left the map we printed out at home, so had to wander the streets looking for signs. Got there in the end, after trekking up a mountain!, okay, bit of an exage, more like a steep hill. Anyway, found ourselves at the wrong end of the building, and had to walk half way back down the hill to get to the right place. Ended up bumping into a group of people, who were also there for the open day. Finally, after about 10 min's of being in the right place, Craig and the crew (Harry, Karl, Riah and Chad) showed up.
When it turned 12:30, which was when the open day began, we were taken into a typical movie lecture theatre, where a table of free food was placed. Unfortunately there was no free pens, which i was hoping to nab. After a huge talk on the basics (who the people were, and what subjects they do), we were split up into groups of what subject we wanted to do. I chose to go with animation, so we were moved to a different room, where we had a huge discussion on what the course's consist of and what you have to do to get there. We also got shown some of the previous work, which was absoulotely amazing!! I wasnt really sure about the course, and was quite worried and upset due to the fact i didnt know what i wanted to do, but after seeing these clips of peoples work, it brought my spirits high, and i knew this was what i wanted.
So... the long paragraph comes to an end..... and basically:
Swansea Uni is amazing, the place is amazing, the course is amazing, and i hope to be a student there next year!!
