BLOG # 1

HOK.

Well this is post number ONE in my, no doubt, unbelievably amazing future blog. I am assuming the greatness of my blog will be due to the fact I have extreme myspace skills and I am an avid and frequent msn user, both of which, along with the blog, are popular new technological ways to communicate with the wide web of people out there in the internet world.

I'd even go as far as to say I am a junkie of any internet related activity and have been known to spend the excess of twelve hours straight online in one sitting. Does this make me a geek? A nerd? A loser with no life?

While all options are possible, I like to think of it as my way of showing supreme appreciation to the wonderful 'new communication technology’ that has most definitely made my teenage years more fulfilling.

So after that enthralling introduction you are presumably clambering with desire to know more about the real me. So here goes. My name is Ruby. E. Winter. The E does not stand for anything. You may think thats a little odd, but keep in mind my sister's middle name is Velvet so really I got off easy. I am seventeen years old, dark hair, extremley short with freckles just in case you wanted to put face to name.

I went to Robina State High, most of the time....when I felt like it. I took part and completed the Guest Program last year at Griffith, which was wonderful, and I can not thank whoever created it enough for providing me with this inspiring opportunity. I feel I got the upper hand on uni life because of it. This is unquestionably a good thing, seeing as I take awhile to ease into new situations. Most probably because I come from Springbrook, but that is a whole other story.


Whilst at Uni I hope to figure out what exactly I want to do in life, I have high hopes for whatever that may be. The subjects I am taking are New Communication Technology (New Comm Tech), Introduction to Politics (Poltics) and Cultural Perspectives (Cul Spec).

New Communication Technology seems to be a benefical subject to be taking because there is a constant changing and advancing of technology in the new age society we are currently living in. Therefore by studying and understanding this phenomenom of technology i believe it will definetly be relevant in future working situations or just generally every day life

I choose to do a Bachelor of Journalism mainly because writing/reading/researching are all things i enjoy doing. Luckily for me a fair few of my friends were also intrested in this course so I haven't had to tackle it alone. Which basically means it is not so daunting having to find rooms, understanding assignments and just being a student at university.

In conclusion, to this highly informative and intelligent post (LOL), this is only a taste to what is in store. Just envision what my essay is going to be like. I am as excited as you, trust me.

The End.
